September update

Hello.... I set this up back in March 2012 and have done nothing with it since.  This is probably because I don't really know what i'm doing!

I have posted lots of my cards on facebook and joined some lovely groups with lots of really nice crafters and very friendly helpful people.

- We Love Kanban
- Cricut Lovers
- Hunkydory Support Group to name just a few

Kanban are now asking for entries for their UK Design Team challenge which I would really like to enter.  Kanban were my first real proper craft company I used and always bought every single kit as soon as it came on QVC. 

I will try and post some of my cards on here, am already taking various orders for Christmas, from the stash I started to purchase back in July but refused to look at and we will already be in October next week!

Thanks for reading - hopefully I can get it to look a bit more professional the more time I spend on here.

Bye for now
Elaine

My very first blog ...

Well after Looking at various blogs through facebook and craft websites i thought i would try my own.

I started making very simple A6 cards using Forever Friends element toppers which i bought one day from a Paper Mill Store. My sister was buying some coloured card for my mum who has made cards for a while and is very artistic.

I then found Kanban through QVC and became addicted! Their kits were always so well thought out and i bought lots of kits.

I have recently bought a few discs (Joanna Sheen, docrafts and Kanban through QVC). The docrafts is awesome (as you will see from the cards i have made recently).

I am very lucky to have some good friends and work colleagues who have seen my cards getting better and being more confident, so much that i sold over 80 Christmas cards and now make lots of their cards to order.

Thank you to everyone for their support (and my patient hubby for all the hours i disappear into my lovely craft room!)

I will put some cards on very soon.

Please let me kmow any comments.
Thanks
Elaine
