Ready...Steady....Go

Well here I am writing a blog for the first time and god am I nervous lol, do I know what to write?....NO but here goes.

First of all my name is Lisa, I am 24 and have a 21 month old son called Isaac, he is my world but my card making comes a very close second lol.

Unfortunately I am only recently a single mum so its hard to find the time to make my cards and my motivation has taken a massive jump out of the window but I'm slowly getting myself back into it as its the only thing that keeps me sane at times, I craft mainly in the evenings when little man is nicely tucked up in bed but occasionally I do squeeze in a couple of hours during the day when hes having his nap which is nice.

Anyway I hope that my introduction hasnt been too dull and depressing but I hope you can get to know me more by having a look at some of my recent designs and feel free to let me know what you think.


Love Always

Forever Friends Wedding Card

Here is my most recent card design, I was asked to make a wedding card and instantly I knew that I wanted to use my new Forever Friends stamps.

Firstly I printed the names and date onto the card using my printer , I then stamped my image using Memento tuxedo black ink onto a separate piece of card and coloured using my pro markers. 

Next I sprayed the card with iridescent spray and sparkle and matted and layered the image and the backing paper onto silver mirror card.

Lastly I added a few gems and a silver bow to finish the card off and I must say although its simple I am very pleased with how it turned out.
Inside the card I added a short verse as I always feel it gives that little bit more of a personal touch.

I have never even tried to print the sentiments onto the card before so this was a first and I was so pleased with how it turned out, I always think it looks so professional and I am glad I finally plucked up the courage to give it a go.

Thankyou for looking :-)

Love Lisa
