Donated items
I have been given some items to use for my cardmaking for charity. Here are a few cards I have made
Thank you
I've been going through a hard time for some time so I made these cards for two friends who have supported me
Valentine's Day
I made this rather lovely - if I do say so myself - Valentine's Day card from Joanna Sheen's new Fashion Boutique CD. Also used My Craft Sudio to make the insert
Various commissioned cards
Over the last few weeks I have been asked for numerous cards. These are pictures of them
Thank you
My son went on a school trip for a few days so I made this card to say Thank You to the teachers that had given up their time
Football card
A commissioned card for someone into football. I used a Clutter Card for the first time
70th Birthday
It was a friend's 70th birthday so I made a very special card along with photos of Rushden
Egypt
A friend was going through a very difficult time and thought I'd make and send this card to let her know that I was thinking about her.
Birthday Card
It was a friend's birthday as she is mad about fashion this was an obvious card for her.
Embossing paste
I was kindly sent a pot of embossing paste from a Forum and this was my first attempt at using it
Commissioned Great Danes Card for Grand-daughter
I was asked to make a card for a grand-daughter into Great Danes. The card made its way to The States and the grand-daughter LOVED it
Oriental Birthday Card
It was a friend's birthday at work so made this card with the help of some craft CDs and some decoupage I bought
Valentine's Day
A friend asked for a Valentine's Day card for someone into bowling. Certainly a bit different but he loved his card when he got it!!
18th birthday and passing driving test
I was asked for an 18th birthday card with a twist - the lady's son had also passed his driving test the week before so wanted all on one card. Here is my attempt
Commissioned Card for someone retiring from driving buses and loves gardening
I was asked by my husband to make a card for a driver where he works who was retiring from driving buses. He is also a mad gardener so decided to merge the two topics into one card

Colemans Warehouse - 29 September 2007
On 29 September I went to the Colemans Warehouse in Rushden as Nancy from Ideal World/Joanna Sheen Forum was demonstrating, to possibly meet other crafters from Forums and also to look for pressies for my birthday. Unfortunately, just after we left our driveway we were involved in a RTA so when I arrived at Colemans I started feeling crook so didn't stay as long as I would have liked. I really enjoyed meeting Nancy and her daughter Mia and also some Sheenies and a Scissor Sister member.
Commissioned Card - Daughter who likes Jack Russells
I was asked by a lady who is one of my main customers to make a card for her daughter's birthday in November. I decided to do it extra special and made it into an A4 card and also printed the image on the front onto canvas paper and didn't put a Happy Birthday quote on the front so that her daughter could put the card in a frame.
The Mum absolutely LOVED the card and knows her daughter will do too!!
Ode to Rob
Our neighbour's parents had to have their beloved dog put down a few weeks ago. They had had Rob for 15 years and was an important member of the family. Some might say he was only a dog but even though I haven't got any pets I know how much an animal would mean to me and my family.
For this reason I decided to print off a verse and decorate it and put in a frame for them to keep. I took it around to their daughter a week or so ago and it brought tears to her eyes. Her Mum and Dad knocked on the door this week to say they really appreciated the verse and they look at it so often.
