Handmade Cards

I recently set up a Facebook Business Page for my much loved hobby, Handmade Cards.. For me, its just a way of getting what I love doing out there into the open and should anyone like what they see, maybe purchase one , or order a personalised one, then that would be fantastic..

My head is bursting with ideas for personalised items from Hen Nights to Special Birthdays to babies and all things wonderful, it's applying myself and actually finding the time is the part I struggle with! When working on a computer from 8.30am to 6pm every day its sometimes hard sit down again and open it up for those precious few hours in the evening that you have left out of your day. But they say you never work a day, when you do something you love.! And hard work will get you where you want to be in life.. It doesn't come by sitting on your behind!

I enjoy making cards, laying all the items out and piecing them together creatively is always fun, sometimes overwhelming. I have yet to learn the tools of the trade such as decoupage etc.. I also dabbled in Jewellery making where I did an evening course, which again I thoroughly enjoyed and would loved to have keep up once I organise my time!

So whats, next for me..Well , I'd love to go back and do an art course, Illustration in particular, but one thing I need to do and rapidly is learn to sew. The best I can do is sew a button on, but I'm talking customising clothes, even making my own clothes, that would be the dream..I'm forever sketching away at different dresses etc (but that's a whole other post)... So if I could craft my days away then they would be happy days, but for now its looking like ill be doing this when I retire!! Only another 30 odd years away!!!!
