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!

Old Truck and Gears


I love this old truck from Fred, She Said Designs, it is a great image for a Father's Day card or a birthday card for a guy. I made this card for an upcoming birthday of a friend. The colouring of the image and background were with Copic Markers and Distress Inks.  I used an embossing folder for the background that has gears on it and then added the punched gears to complete the card.  

Thank you for stopping by.
