Hi dear readers,
Time is approaching for a new blog of mine, today I am leaving another sneak preview of the card I will have on my new blog. I also want to share some of my intentions about it. As many of you know, I have been making paper flowers for a long time, at least 6 years now. I did not invent paper flowers LOL, so I am not pretending to know it all, in fact, I learn every day by experimenting with different paper punches and wafer thin dies. I love elegance on the borderline of shabby chic mixed with pink! But I like other colors, I also love to use warm colors...
Those who may be interested in my blog, are from cardmaking beginners to serious cardmakers, there will be something for everyone.
I don't think I qualify for any specific or particular style name with my work in cardmaking in general. I just go with the flow, where creativity takes me. I have been making cards for 14 years and frankly over time I have tried and created some techniques of my own. We have so many viewing options now online, blogs, vlogs, videos to actually view what we may want to create and that's great! I do watch quite a few of them. Some are better than others and most times I prefer the step by step photos myself. So my intentions are to bring some of my favorite techniques to share with you. It could be about a flower or simply a stamping technique.
No techniques will be off limits, card making, stamping techniques, fun media mixing, stencilling, you name it, I will try and share what I can, when I can with you. Gardening is another branch of what I love doing on my daily schedule, so if I find out something I didn't know, which is likely to happen, I will share it with you. So please sign up for more of this type of blog to come, I am sure you will find it fun to follow me.
One flower technique I will share soon with you is how to use the rolled flower dies, it is very easy and if you are a beginner with flower making and cardmaking, you will love this one.
Here is another sneak preview of my card on my new blog:
Find the new blog address here on the 30th or 31st of August. I may post it sooner. Remember, after I give you the new address this blog here will become unused, unless I need to post additional information to it. Everything is ready to go and set up for a nice start. I will enjoy everyone of you who want to follow me and leave comments when you have a chance. No obligation, but I sure love when you do leave even if it's just one line. Let me know you were here so I know you are interested...
Have a fun week! Until later (soon)!
Hi Readers,
2 WEEKS to go!
After debating whether or not to keep the blog going.....I have decided to, not only continuing for the time being but, I am opening a new blog at the end of this month!!!!! "August 31st" YAY!!!!!!!!!
GIven all the work I have on my schedule, I will post as much as I can, I am still making a lot of cards. Some are fancier than others, with flowers and some are made in a hurry too. I have been blogging since 2006 and leaving this habit cold turkey would be really hard as I would miss posting something as some of you probably would miss it too.
So in best of both worlds, I have decided to start another blog. It will officially open on August the 31st 2014. So at that time you will be able to sign up as a follower and get my newsletters so you don't miss any of the posts again. That being said, there will be a card posted on that day and possibly another one the following day. Depending on how busy this new blog is, I will decide what to do with this one in a few months from now.
Keep on checking as I will give you some tiny previews of the cards I will share then....Remember August 31st is OPENING DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE NEW BLOG ADDRESS will be available that day as well.
I am hoping I can get used to the other blog address, it was a challenge to get it started but with some valuable help I was able to get it ready.
Preview #1
