Hello!

Despite the ever-changing weather and sudden hayfever-like symptoms [24 years later!], i'm feeling reflective and i've decided that life is very good. 

I'm excited to say that i've booked a holiday to St Ives in June, and i'm so looking forward to the sun, sea and sand [fingers crossed]! It's amazing how a bit of sunshine can brighten your day, and colour!

When it comes to crafting i'm not very brave with colour, so i'm trying to break my own rules!

Behold, a lovely orange inspired card to celebrate the good times! The cute hot air balloon die is American Crafts teamed with Amy Tangerine papers. I think you can never have too many chevrons.

I hope you like it!

Evening' all,

I had a good long think today about whether i consider myself to be a hoarder. On the one hand i can't do certain tasks without OCD tendencies [e.g wiping the kitchen work surfaces] but on the other i tend to want to recycle and reuse everything. As a child my mum would hoard wrapping paper from my birthday gifts which i thought was bizarre... but i now find myself doing it! I cant even throw away a pair of old jeans... clinging onto the thought that i might turn them into a 90's throwback bag. [i haven't been drinking]

The mind boggles... With this in mind i made a few scrap-themed cards to use up some odds and sods. Plus brand-new American Crafts Washi tape - it would be rude not to.
