Welcome to my blog!
From x stitch I moved into card making - now I am playing around with mixed media! I am taking part in different workshops and with help from crafty pals, learning about different mediums and techniques. Hope you feel inspired to create after a visit to my blog - Happy Crafting!

Denim Bumble Bee :)
This is my lovely new stamp....well it's not new on the market but it's new to me and i wanted it for aaaages! Over at Craftbubble our celebrity Kathy set a sketch and a twist of trying something new. I have never tried paper piecing before and wanted to give it a go so TA DAH! I think the dress may blend into the background a bit to well but it's a girl's first try, give her a break!

Beware Dragon!
I haven't made any cards this week I have been completing my round robin for posting tomorrow. There was a slight delay in proceedings involving a cup of tea and then some vanish but all is ship shape now. I have decided on a dragon theme and here is the little cutie I stitched x

Delightful Sketches has a theme of pull out your punches
This is my new favourite card, i hope you like it!
