Square or Not?

 Chrissy is the host at


and her chosen theme is 

Square or Not?

I am a square through and through. I LOVE symmetry so the square satisfies that need for order. In this case I have gone all out with the squares, using a lovely Papermania pad and many, many squares and a sequin or two to add a bit of shine.


I look forward to seeing what shaped card you favour and why.

While I am here I must apologise for the lack of visits to my crafting buddies this week. I have been struck down by the dreaded Covid and have been feeling really poorly. I promise that I will catch up with you all soon.

See you at the weekend xx

Cute as a Button


Hello everyone and I hope this finds you well and rested after the weekend.
Thank you for your lovely comments about my previous post, they are much appreciated!!

Anyway, onto business. The Cutie Pies have a new challenge starting today and it's

Cute as a button.

Here is my DT contribution using Sunbonnet Measuring  


She was coloured with Promarkers to match the Papermania papers which I arranged to suggest patchwork. Some buttons strung together with twine as a finishing touch. She's one for the stock box. My friend Kim (she is responsible for wonderful fabric creations) and I are going to share a stall at a neighbouring villages' Craft and Flower Show in a couple of weeks so I am beavering away putting cards in cello bags and getting organised. I am actually really nervous about it as I am useless at pricing and it will be our first time selling to the public, as such!! Thankfully Kim and I are both known locally so perhaps the good folk of Dorset will take pity on us!!
