About Me

Okanagan, BC, Canada
Welcome to my crafting blog. After retirement, my husband and I moved to a beautiful location in the Okanagan area of British Columbia. I love all paper crafts including mixed media, journaling and cards. I also dabble in papermaking, photography, fibre art, and altered books. I am an active member of several card and mixed media groups and on the design team of several challenge blog. I love the world of blogging, it has opened many doors for me. My favourite quote is by Maya Angelou. “You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” I hope you join me in my search for my creative side. Thanks for stopping by!

Heated Pearls


For my last day as card captain at Enjoy Michael Strong Stamps I chose to use another old technique called Pearl Ex - Heated Pearls for my background to this cloisonné butterfly card.  You can find the directions for this background technique at:

I love the way the unique texture appears when you heat the white glue and Pearl Ex. I coloured the butterfly with glitter pens to add some more sparkle to the card.

This has been a great week for me at Enjoy Michael Strong Stamps.  I just love the challenges.  Come join us at:
