Crafting Pleasure

Hello everyone, how are you all doing??

When I started making cards and paper crafts, it was mainly for family, friends and for something to do in the evenings - so that I wasn't constantly watching TV.  

Initially I watched countless You Tube videos, on paper crafting and all before I found a demonstrator whose style I liked.  I followed with my first purchase from Stampin' Up! and I haven't looked back since.  I have made regular purchases, and have been blown away by the co-ordination of the products - paper, ink and card all completely match, so one really can not go wrong.  Here are a few examples of the superbly co-ordinated products working well together:

Meeting the lovely Heather Forgan of https://stampwithnellie.com opened my eyes to the prospect of entering competitions with my makes.  She intorduced me to the weekly Creative Colour Challenges, and the facebook group "The Joy of Sets" - where we have monthly swaps and challenges.  I have joined many facebook crafty groups since, all of which encourage crafting outside ones own comfort zone. 

I have also recently made and sold my first commisioned card!   I shall be making more cards for commisions, selling more products via my online stampin up shop, and entering my first Blog Hop.

Look out for me!

Happy crafting!
