All Dressed Up in Red and Green

Hi

It's been a while since I posted any cards but, with one thing and another, life has been quite hectic recently.  However, I managed to find a little time for myself the other day and made a card.


With a little help (well, quite a lot of help really) from my friend Stephanie-Emma, I recently discovered Promarkers and I have been practising with them.  I am quite pleased with how this image of Sugar Nellie's Posy Pip came out, isn't she sweet with her big sunflower?


The paper and embellishments are from my stash and the card came from Crafty Boots.

Liebster Blog Award


Hi Everyone and welcome to my blog. I hope you are all well?

I was recently very surprised but also really delighted to have been given the Liebster Blog Award



by my good friend Dionne over at Dee's Craft Room.  Dionne is into a variety crafts, including card making and scrapbooking and I urge you to pop over to her blog and take a look at some of her work.

The idea of the Liebster Blog Award is to spread the love from one small blog (under 200 followers) to other small blogs. This helps to spread knowledge of these blogs and encourage others to become followers.

"Liebster" in German means "dearest", so as part of the Liebster Blog Award tradition, I am going to pass this award to 5 blogs that I value, and that have both inspired and motivated me.
