Wonderful news!


 I am very excited to announce I've been accepted as a member of the Twisted Sketches card design team! I am so honoured to have been chosen to interpret Anam Stubbington's gorgeous sketches along side a very talented group of ladies. This is something I've wanted to do for a long time and I can't wait to receive my next sketch so I can get started!

I discovered this blog about a year ago and often use Anam's sketches as inspiration for both cards and layouts. One week she will publish a layout sketch and the next week there's a card sketch. Each sketch has a "twist" that must be incorporated into the design somehow. I often recommend it to friends and customers who find it hard to get started creating. A bit of help deciding what should go where is a great way to cure scrapper's block.

Here is the sketch I had to use to create my card for the design team call. The twist is "number", and here is my card... 



I have some time off to look forward to over the Christmas break and I am planning on spending a large part of it in my craft room. Merry Christmas everyone! Thanks for looking.

Thanks for your lovely comment on my blog! I used a die from Sizzix to make those leaves. It’s called “Flowers, Branches & Leaves Set” number 656064. When I’m here I must say that I love the cards you make. There is something about them… I totally love them!

Beautiful card! The punched edge adds a delicate touch.
