Welcome!

Welcome to my blog, which one day, hopefully, should be filled with wonderful handmade card ideas! My goal is to create a blog with ideas for some easy, 'make-able' cards for you to take inspiration from! (It's what I've always needed to help me!)

Christmas Tag No. 2

It's starting to get very busy with exams, but I managed to quickly photograph this one and upload it between revision and family visits!


I used a plain triangle of off white card, and then rumaged through my snippets and found some patterned red and green papers from last Christmas (which means a quick trip to the playground!). I cut them into some quirky shapes, stuck them on and added a glittered star to top it off!
