A FEW CHANGES .....

A SMORGASBORD OF BLOG POSTS .......!!!!!!!
I still do not have a scheduled bank of crafty blog posts ...... HOWEVER, I had an e-mail from my lovely friend Jan The Fan who suggested that though I still feel that I can't produce a "crafty" post on a daily basis, I might consider adding the odd very short post about perhaps one of my many "objects of desire", charity shop finds, what's in the shops, ideas & inspiration, other blogs that catch my fancy, sayings, and some of my photographs etc. as and when I feel like it ..... and I thought why not? ...... I am still not promising a post every day ..... but if you pass on by you never know what you might find!!

OLD TEMPLATES AND FILES
I am sorry I cannot send out any templates, poems etc. that I may have previously offered before May 2012 ...... my computer decided to die then and I lost all my files and I do not intend to redo or replace them, what's gone is gone!

Christmas Wreath Card

Christmas Wreath CardChristmas Wreath card 1
Above are the original pictures
I started writing up this post and looked at the pictures that went with it and realised that the card was PANTS!  The holly leaves on the right hand side were completely out of kilter to the other side, it looked a mess …… so I started again.

I think the second version looks a lot better (but, if I do it again, I might not mat and layer the centre but just work directly on the card blank.
Christmas Wreath Card 2 
The wreath is made using a variety of  punches, mostly flowers and holly leaves, except for the white snowflakes in the middle of the red flowers, which accentuates the Christmas theme.

I’ve used flat back gems and sets of three little dots to complete the design.

So glad to hear that once in awhile someone else looks at their creation and says, "I need to do this over." Your card is grea and so interesting with all the different flower shapes. Whoever receives this will love it!
