A craft blog about paper craft, sewing, knitting and baking. I've always loved making things but started card making in 2012 after I found I could make my own wedding invites how I wanted them and for a fraction of the cost, plus it was fun to do! I love stamps, digistamps, die-cutting, colouring in and just getting lost in my own world while I craft. In 2013 I became a Spectrum Noir Accredited Colorist. I hope you enjoy my reviews and blog posts.

Twelve Drummers Drumming Card
I used the Hunkydory Twelve Days of Christmas topper set and cut a little window big enough for the drummer boy toppers, then covered the base of the card with adorable scorable card. I used foam pads to raise up the patterned card with the window cut out. I used 3D glue gel to put the drummer boy in the window and added a bow. For the sentiment I used Anitas gold peel offs from DoCrafts

My Sisters Christmas Cards
Finally got my bum in gear and started my sisters Christmas cards. I've done quite a lot of mine (hunkydory kits) but still have cards to do for my sister, parents and parents company and Christmas is sneaking up fast!
I brought the Mulberry Woods kit for myself initially (in the sale in July) but then my sister loved it so I said she could have cards with it, plus it meant I would have to buy the Hunkydory kits (I think I was just looking for an excuse!)
I made the below cards with the Crafters Companion Mulberry Woods Christmas kit along with some card blanks, peel offs & sequin dots from the DoCrafts goody bag. I also added in some die cut snowflakes.

Woohoo - I won another crafty prize
...but this time for my sister :)
DoCrafts had their weekly Facebook competition where you have to say what you would do with the crafty prize.
Last weeks was a complete card kit which I thought would be perfect for my sister. She likes helping me make cards but with this kit everything is there for her. I sent my entry into DoCrafts explaining this and while my sister was round on Wednesday I got an email to say I'd won!
The prize came this morning and is so lovely! Everything comes in a pink gingham box and includes preprinted backgrounds on each card, toppers, verses and gems. I've not opened it as I'm being good since I've won it for my sister but can't wait for the grand unveiling on Wednesday with her.
Now to cross my fingers and hope my luck wins me the lottery! (first item on my shopping list if I win is a house with space for a hydrotherapy pool, and a hydrotherapy pool. I'd also love to open a hydrotherapy pool for the public as they're so few and far between and help people with muscle weakness and other disabilities)
