Hi Crafters,
I think I can safely say that my favourite hobby is Card Making, followed closely by Papercraft.
I just love making cards, I find it so relaxing to shut myself away in my craft room and create all sorts of cards and projects. It helps me to de-stress and unwind.
I am sharing two cards today using lots of embossing and dies...

Wow Lorraine, these are just stunning! White on white is so hard to pull off, but with the touches of gold and silver, they just jump off the screen! Elegant and posh! hugs :)
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning Lorraine, white on white always scares me a little but I should take a lead from this as every little element stands out so well.
ReplyDeleteHope you are enjoying the NEC and will leave a few things for tomorrow as looks like I am going to be able to go.
