C'est Magnifique March Sketch Challenge

I had a lot of fun doing this layout, love all the papers, the flowers, the resin, the resist canvas...all so yummy! I took a photo of my daughter Aine looking thoughful while sitting on a bench and thought it was fitting to use with the resin piece!

I need to start doing some more quilting again!!

I am so sorry that this has been overtaken by paper crafting, but it is my current love... I do sew every week, just not enough to photograph :(  Must try to start putting aside a few hours to make my bed quilt as the current quilt is disintegrating!

I do have plenty of cards and layouts to show...so I hope you don't mind!!

Here is my roundup of cards since my last post...

And some of my layouts...

Things are going fairly well here, a little blip with MS and my eyes, but seems to be improving and doctor is not worried, so I won't be either!

I am keeping up with my photo a day of the girls and our little daily activities...please go ahead and friend me on Facebook to have a look!

More soon, I hope!

Unity Stamp KOM Challenge for March

Here is the sketch for this month's challenge...

And here is my take on the sketch...

Another Unity Card Challenge: Hearts with no red or pink!!

Here is a card I made for a friend who is going through a hard time and adjustment to her lift... She deserves to find happy again sometime, even if it might take a while...I just wanted to let her know I was thinking of her...

The card uses blue and the sentiment is stamped for a soft effect... I used the You Deserve Happy stamp of the week stamp to stamp and paper piece the hearts, though I only wanted the stamping visible on the first one... Thanks for looking...

Unity February KOTM Sketch Challenge

Here is the sketch:

Here is my simple flat stamped card:

It is a very simple card...but I hope you like it!

Let's Talk Business...

Just a little one...I am selling some of my cards locally and getting some commissions and it is fun and a way to make a little extra money...to pay for more of these goodies I keep wanting!

Here are some of the cards I have been doing over the last few weeks...they are my favorite projects to make, especially since two little girls keep you busy...they don't take me as long to do as page layouts do! Um yes, these are only from the past 12 days, I think I may have some issues, I just can't stop creating!!! I work on these as a part of challenges at the papercrafting community (attached to an awesome shop!) at Flying Unicorn Forum...then I see if they can be sold at the local art gallery or cafe here in the village!!

I have also done a few layouts so far this month, and hope to get a few more done!

I've done a few quilt blocks this month, and have done a bit of knitting but we've had a nasty flu going through the house for the last few weeks and we are just nearly recovered, so hope to get a routine back of a little crochet, a little knitting and a little quilting each day as well as my paper crafting!! 

My picture a day isn't the most creative, as days when I have forgotten to take creative photos, I have just been taking crafty project photos, I need to get better about them, and hope to update here soon! My weight loss is stalled but not going up, so that in itself is a positive!

Hope to get better at this soon, I would love to have a routine here too!!

Unity Stamp Challenge: New Beginnings
