Virgin blog

Hello

My name is Becci and I make hand made cards. This blog will to show off cards that I have made.

About me: I'm forty and live with my crazy bunny called Buffy. I make cards in my spare time and sell them in a local bookshop/cafe and to friends and family. I first got into cardmaking about six years ago as I wanted to do something a bit different for Christmas cards.

Welcome

I first got into card making about 5 or 6 years ago when I wanted to something a bit different for Christmas. As with most crafters I started off very basic with card stock, some coloured papers, peel off stickers and some colouring pens. As you can imagine over the years my equipment range has expanded some what but I still sometimes get stuck for ideas of what to do with it all, though I've now got out of the habit of buying something purely because I like it but then when it comes to using it doesn't actually go with anything I have!

I still make cards to give to family and friends and also sell them to family members to for them to send out for special occasions. I also sell cards in a bookshop/cafe in my home town.
