Welcome to my Corner of the World
Todays card uses the absolute minimum of supplies, literally a gift tag, some white card, some adhesive and a paper trimmer with a score blade!

Welcome to my Corner of the World
For the last 5 – 6 years I have designed and enjoyed making my flip over desk calendar for the ladies who came to my classes. As I have done for the last few years I am going to be sharing one at the start of each month. Like last year, I recognize not everyone is into making 3D items so have created a card for each month, using elements from the calendar for that month and included a video to show how I went about making the card.
So today I share, New Year SnowFlakes

Welcome to my Corner of the World
I can’t believe we are at the beginning of December already! This year has simply flown by and I have the final calendar and card for 2025.
For the last 4 – 5 years I have designed and enjoyed making my flip over desk calendar for the ladies who came to my classes. As I have done for the last few years I am going to be sharing one at the start of each month. Like last year, I recognize not everyone is into making 3D items so have created a card for each month, using elements from the calendar for that month. .

Welcome to my Corner of the World
It is exactly one year ago today that we arrived back to live in the UK after 23 years in the US! That time has simply flown by and I am sincerely thankful that we have been able to keep in contact with our friends in the US as well as settling in our new lives back here and spending time with family which was our principle reason for returning. Although Thanksgiving is not recognised here in the UK we are cooking our Thanksgiving Lunch as I write this!
Today I am sharing a masculine themed card ~ always a challenge for me, but I have invested in some new stamp sets that are more ‘fella’ oriented and was quite chuffed with the result!

Welcome to my Corner of the World
As I said in my video, gift tags are always the last thing I remember to get at this time of year and when I go looking last minute there is very little choice left if any at all!
I started early this year and have made my own, using different techniques that make them look expensive and special (although they only cost pennies in supplies)

Over the last few weeks I have been working on the calendar for 2026 ~ I am excited to share it with you and will be including a video of how I take each calendar decorative panel and design the card!
So today I share, Beautiful Autumn Leaves

Welcome to my Corner of the World
A few weeks back I shared how I created an album for keeping my Artist Trading Cards. I finished the video with the basic album. With today’s video I take the album and added a closure and decorated the front cover. I was thrilled and delighted with the finished product and looking forward to making another album for my remaining and future cards.
