EXCITING NEWS!!!!!

Hiya Crafty Friends,

Just a quick post today, as I have some very exciting new to share with you all.

Some weeks ago, I applied for a position to be a Design Team member at Docrafts Creativity Club. Well, I have just found out...I have got the post!!!!!! 


And I am really looking forward to getting to know, and working along side, some very talented crafters, who are also part of the design team. 

I never knew you could feel so many emotions at the same time:

Happy

Excited

Nervous

And everything in between...lol. But I know I am going to love every minute!

I can't wait to get started, as I LOVE working with their products, and I will keep you all up-dated on my crafting journey with them.

Wish me luck guys, on my new adventures

Guest Designer - Doreen O'Brien


Hi crafty friends, 

We have a special Guest Designer today, who have designs some wonderful tags to coincide with our monthly challenge. So, with our much further ado, I will now pass you over to Doreen.


"Hi I‘m Doreen,
I have been crafting for probably most of my life one way or another,
but serious paper crafting for about 4 years,
I started my blog three years ago and haven’t looked back. 
It is through my blog that I started stamping and that’s when I found Promarkers,
I hadn’t heard of them till then,
I have never been to a card making class, I did go to about 6 or 7 craft classes, 
but everything I know, I have just taught myself and picked things up through my crafty blog pals…
I know I still have lots more to learn yet.

Doreen

If you would like to see some more from the very talented Doreen's, hop over to her blog at:



Thanks Doreen for sharing your work with us xx
