Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

July 08, 2025

Out of the box ...

 Hi Everybody,

It is taking me some time to get back to crafting as I have become so lazy and can't seem to get going at all.

It is good to be able to see the computer screen though now that my eyes have been lasered,  and that make  things a lot easier for me. 

For this little project I have used some flowers that I made and I have added them to a head band for a child.

I have also added some lace along the side to hide the head band and here ....

... it is beautifully modelled by my lovely Ruby.

She is the one that is guilty of all the snoring that goes on in my videos and I love her to bits. 

She was not too happy about this situation and couldn't wait to shake it off.
But you get the idea anyway.

Tomorrow I am adding in a new video that continues with the theme of making flowers and I am using ribbon again to making some small flowers to add to cards.

They are very quick and easy to do but you will need a needle and some cotton.

I hope you like them and the cards they are added too. 

Bye for now ...

Hugs xx

I'm Back ....

Hi Everybody,

Thank you for your patience over the past few weeks but I am happy to say that I am back and I can      SEE!!

My Laser treatment went very well with no complications and it is absolutely painless. It takes literally minutes to complete and there is no down time needed.

I was not allowed to drive until the day after and then it was ok for me to get back in my car.
The downside to all this is that with my cloudy vision it was impossible to see all the dust and bits that have accumulated around the house.

But once I got home again I could see them all sitting there just staring at me, and daring me to clean them up.

In the past I have spent all day cleaning and getting my house spotless again ...but not a day long task anymore.

So for the past week I have gone around each room and cleaned till it shines and now my house is back to normal again.

And over the weekend I have tried a little bit of crafting and I came up with this from the pieces I could find lying around.

It is not a card but a canvas that measures 11" x 14" and I will hang it on the wall in my craft room.

All the flowers on one wing have been sparkled with glitter and the other wing is covered in silver mesh. I promise you it looks really pretty in real life.

I will get back to crafting on a regular basis now and create some more videos to ad to the blog and YouTube. Thanks again for your patience,

Bye for now 

Hugs xx
