My New Hobby!

After thinking and thinking and walking round a great big craft shop and still getting no idea what I wanted to do as a hobby, I decided I'd do what my daughter Emma does, and do some card-making! (Hope she don't mind me copying her!)

So I visit some online craft places and order away to my hearts content... papers, embellishments, peel offs, Oooh theres so much to choose from!

I went to a craft shop and got me a craft knife, mat, glue, scissors, double sided sticky tape and some blank cards and envelopes.

So I was all set to go! Now, where do I start? I really didn't have much of a clue so mentioned it to my daughter and she suggested we have a 'craft day' round hers after a nice lunch! That went well and I managed my first card which I was rather pleased with!

We're hoping to do this on a regular basis and in fact last Friday, had one round my house where I managed to make two more cards! It's quite captivating this hobby!

Will have to find a way to put up photos of my cards!
