Gosh I can't believe where this year has gone. I was supposed to regularly post to my blog but somehow time has got the better of me...... I must do better.....

I have been busy with my Etsy shop Sweetpeapollyscrafts building up new personalised card designs which are now starting to be popular.

Being able to be creative and make beautiful things is so rewarding after working in banking for over 36years. Its now time to enjoy myself.

With christmas not so far away I have been making funny cracker joke christmas tags to add to my christmas presents this year you can also find them in my Etsy shop.

Loving the Christmas colour combination

I've decided to keep a journal to remind me of the important things to do each day as my mind has a habit of wandering off thinking of new things to create. First I have to make one....lol.... maybe I should write that down so I don't forget!!

Hi

One of my New Years resolutions for 2018 was be be more organised with my crafts and photos... now that should be easy.... shouldn't it?

My craft room cupboard is full to overflowing and even under the bed is totally full of boxes full of paper and card scraps, bits of material and odd embellishments. I think its going to take some time to get through it all.

I have lots of hobbies and my other passion is photography and with 35,000 plus photos I think I have my work cut out.
I came across a folder with some cards that I made in 2010 and thought I would share a few with you.

Its great to reminisce and they have given me inspiration to use up some of this paper scraps and bits of ribbon and embellishments I have. Watch this space.....
