I've had pencils in my hand ever since I can remember, and as a child, colouring in books was my favourite activity. I've since graduated to calligraphy, and dabbling with various paints, pastels, charcoal, etc. I also like to play with paper, recycling things and making collages. This is a record of my projects in recent years.

Hand made Christmas cards
This year I am in a Xmas card exchange on a forum. In fact, it was my idea to have the exchange as I knew there were quite a few members who loved making cards, and I thought it would be fun for them all to swap with each other. I got so enthused, I looked up the card ideas I'd been saving on my Pinterest account, and made these cards all in one afternoon! Some of my friends said they were amazed at how quick I was, but really, once you have all the bits and pieces on a table in front of you, it doesn't take long to make up a few cards. I don't spend a lot of money on expensive cardmaking equipment; I'd rather recycle things like old sheet music, paint sample cards, and cutting up old Xmas cards.
Then with some card stock and glitter glue - away I went!
