I'm back

Finally I'm back, I went into hospital lat Monday and didn't get discharged until yesterday. I have been sooo sick. I know it's going to be a long road to complete recovery but with the next 6 weeks (at least) of work it gives me time to craft, If I take it slowly. At the moment getting dressed renders me exhausted and I have to have a nap. Things might be a bit slow on here until normal business is resumed but I can't think of a better therapy. While I was in hospital I completely missed being able to post the card I'd made for the final leg of the Craftwork Cards competition, fortunately it was posted on their blog because I love this card.

So here have been my entries for the whole competition C.R.A.F.T.W.O.R.K., just click on the letter to see the card or project. This weekend sees the brilliant Northern Papercraft Extravaganza and they are running their version of the Oscars, just make a card and take it along to the show on Saturday to enter. As always fabulous prizes are on offer, see the details here.
After complaining I wasn't too keen on the card I made last week for Winter Wonderland's challenge I made the top 3!Right this post had to be done in two stages and I'm shattered so I'm off to lie down and dream of crafty things.

Also on the layout you should spot a lovely voile flower, some tiny pearl flowers and a couple of blossoms made from scallop circle punches. Although the bought flowersand vines are beautiful if you need to use ...

End of Summer Blog Hop

Hello to all you UK Scrappers blog hoppers, hopefully you have arrived from Ifa's blog, I have been a fan of Ifa's clean scrapbooking style, how lovely is that layout.  Well the project I made is another take on what you can do with the vines I featured on the last blog hop. Often you see these things and think 'well they are lovely but what will I do with it'. Scrapbooking supplies are not just for scrapbooking.  I bought a bargain frame from a 'cheap' shop and wanted to add a bit of va va voom to it.I thought it was wood so was going to paint and crackle it,, turning it shabby and planned to give it a vintagey theme. Well that went out the window when I realised it was plastic.   Plan B then, I painted it with Gesso to give it a bit of 'tooth' so that whatever I did would grip. I followed this with a couple of coats of cream paint and sanded the edges. This was followed with a sheet of 12x12 cut down to the same size as each panel and glued ...
