Love your cards Maggied. I've not been crafting for ages. Started a card three weeks ago and not finished it yet. Lots still happening here at home and can't concentrate. But have lots of plans at the back of my mind. I'm really delighted to come on here to 'escape'. So many nice people here! I still have your envelope of goodies on my craft table and I will be using them, I promise.

Very nice cards.

I haven't made a card in years. But with all this inspiration and it being Valentines soon I decided to have a bash. Silver card from a gift box a bit of printing and there you have it. All I need now is a apt verse!

little suggestion ;)
 

How about

My dearest darling ducky,
behind your ears are mucky,
but never mind,
love is blind,
My dearest darling ducky :D

blast from the past
 

OMG iwrote this verse to my darling husband ..ehem a few years ago when he was in the navy it was written on a post card (how sillyb of me ) and to this day his nickname is ....ducky ....lol xmx

LOL! I'm doing a serious one this year for a change. Last one was

My love is like a cabbage, divided into two,
The leaves I'll give to others, my heart I'll give to you.

my wife's work:

Lovely! Great vintage look. I've been away from the cards for quite a long time due to other pressures - time to get back and hopefully do some recycling again. Well done. I'm just thinking......I do believe I have that Christmas stamp too!

Beautiful! I love all the sheet music.

Really beautiful cards.

They're fantastic really love the look.

I've been away too long!
 

Goodness me it's way too long since I visited JT. How is everyone here? Some beautiful work on here folks. Loving all the crafts. I'm a crafter myself. Anyone batch making for valentines or are ye ready? Any ideas for repurposing for valentines cards or have you repurposed a valentine card yet? Dying to hear more from ye. ;-)

Yes I love using card websites for inspiration as I enjoy making them myself with my children, such a great activity for them. Getting them involved with arts and crafts is a perfect way for them to start expressing their emotions. Another great crafts site to use for ideas is something like Cregal Art. Does anyone else use this site? It even sometimes gives great deals on crafts, another site I found recently that is good for daily ideas for cultural events ^ musuem tickets is Groupon. Thsi is a link to the Irish site, think there is a UK for those who are interested.
