A few years ago I decided to stop my card making. I had enjoyed the craft for a some time but was spending far more than I could justify on my hobby. It was nice to always have a card ready for most occasions but when something you used to enjoy becomes a chore then it's time to call it a day.
Recently I've been following some blogs again and have been inspired to try my hand once more. Having dug deep into the loft and various other hiding places, I have unearthed most of the stash I had before. The plan was to use up the various bits and bobs and hopefully not spend anything much on new stuff. What a joke that was!!
Anyway I have spent some money (not too much) and have made a few cards which I am quite pleased with. I do like the idea of dies and stamps that compliment each other as I don't have the best eyesight and my fussy cutting (new term to me) is leading to deeper frown lines if that is possible. I bought some matching sets from Clearly Besotted and must say I have been very impressed with them. I do love the clean and simple look at the moment but I also love my Penny Black and House Mouse stamps, so I want to carry on colouring with my Promarkers and combining them all together.
Now all I need to do is get my photos loaded and if they are half decent then I shall post them.
