yay - I have a working scanner again! I stole my husband's as mine really had bit the dust - still it's done him a favour as he now has more room on his desk!!
Today's card is inspired by the sketch challenge over on Splitcoast stampers - it was a very clean and simple design so I kept my card quite simple too

It starts off as a 5" x 5" cream card blank and I matted and layered some Baja Breeze and cream card stock - the sentiment banner uses the same. The stamp set is Vintage Vogue and uses Baja Breeze and Sage Shadow inks.
I am feeling a little shell-shocked today - I went to an AGM meeting last night (I'm the bookings manager for our local village hall) and I managed to come away from the meeting as the new secretary. How did that happen?! I'm sure that I wil be fine at the job - I just hope I can find the time speaking of which - I have a workshop that I need to finish preparing for. Really looking forward to that as we are making Paper Bag Mini Albums. I am half way through making up a sample and I've taken photos so I will probably post a tutorial on Friday - bye for now - Jacqueline xx.

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
