Hello my crafty friends. My posts always seem to be late these days but I am honestly not sitting about twiddling my thumbs. Busy once again with stitching and cards, though no stitching to show at the moment. Sticking to my guns and trying where I can to use new or upcycled things, though there have been a few exceptions.
The first one was one of those cards none of us wants to be sending and it was for a friend who lost her mum –
The next is for a four year old girl and I had nothing in stock that would be ideal so I just used some card I already had, and a silhouette image that had been in my library for ages. Not brilliant as I really need some new blades but they are so expensive. The sentiment was using a die I hadn’t used before so I didn’t actually have to buy anything to make it.
Then we have four upcycled birthday cards.
Whilst doing my recent clean up of the craft room I found some digi – stamps which I had taken on holiday to colour a couple of years back. It was about time some of those got put to good use :-
And lastly this one uses one of the pretty new dies I received at Christmas:-
I think that is enough for now but I will try and get back in the next few days to show you some more Christmas cards.
Hope you enjoyed looking and if you are new to my blog and have a craft blog of your own then please leave me a message so that I may come and see what you are up to . I love seeing cards others have made and it never fails to help keep my mojo up high.
Hugs
More lovely cards, using what you have!

Yes my lone effort to save the world – well I am sure I am not the only one but using things that would otherwise be disposed of must help.
