Linda

I'm a mother of 4 who using my crafting as a way of escaping the everyday trials of being a mother!! I love crafting as i feel it totally takes my mind away from any troubles i may have. I have always loved crafting, as a little one i enjoyed knitting sessions with my nana, followed by dressmaking sessions. I then took up cross-stitch, patchwork, and then stumbled into papercrafting. I have never looked back. I love all card making techniques, and find there just aren't enough hours in the day to try them all out. At the moment my love of stamping takes priority. Oooh, i just can't get enough of all those cute stamps out there. I love visiting over blogs for inspiration, im totally in awe of everyone elses wonderful work. Im looking forward to being part of this new challenge blog, working alongside so many lovely talented ladies.

Paula

My Name is Paula and i have two loves in life the first one is my husband David and the second is cardmaking. I came across cardmaking while i was ill and ive not looked back since. I love to stamp and i find colouring in so relaxing, i also like to try new techniques.

Sharon

Hi everyone. I'm a mother of 2 grown girls, grandmother to 1 and married to the most patient man in the world. I've been crafting in one form or another for most of my life. At school it was art & dressmaking, when I married I moved on to soft furnishings and when my girls were young I loved to cross stitch. I came across card making in May 2008 when I was made redundant and I haven't looked back since. Now I'm back working full time and to be honest....it's interfering with my crafting time ;o) I love being inspired by people so I'm looking forward to seeing your creations when you join our challenges.

Tasha

I have been crafting for about 5 years now and i not only find it fun i find it extremely relaxing. I hope you are going to join in our challenges and have alot of fun with us.
