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!

It's Your Special Day



Time for another great challenge this month at Eclectic Ellapu.  The theme this month is anything goes. I made this birthday book for a very good friend's birthday. 

I have used both the Tim Holtz Dog Crazy and Cat Crazy stamps and dies for my birthday book.  I had lots of fun making it and used the following products:

washi tape
stamps and dies
designer paper
glitter paper
copic markers
watercolors
glitter paper
ribbons
cord
diamond glaze
gems
Cricut Cuts






Thank you for stopping by and have a creative day.  Hope you will join us at Eclectic Ellapu this month. Remember to pop over to our challenge blog to see the inspiring creations of the design team.

  1. Hi Judy! Thank you so much for playing along with Retro Rubber. Unfortunately, I will have to remove this card from our gallery. Our challenge is not anything goes. It is a theme challenge and you must use hearts on your card. A thorough review of your card indicates there are no hearts on it. I would encourage you to make a new card with hearts on it and at least one older stamp and link up to our gallery again. We do appreciate your interest and we do occasionally have anything goes challenges, this is not one of those. Have a great and creative day! Jane Knudsen owner - Retro Rubber Challenge Blog
