Christmas Decorations

Ok no-one faint but i've actually made a card.
I know right ?
I'm finding it hard to believe myself but here it is in the flesh (so to speak).

This is my first hand made card since The Lady posted here in Sept 2016.
I've made a couple of mine from craftsuprint but I don't class mine as hand made as such due to just printing and cutting.

Anywhoo onto the actual card.

Wow long time no post

Hi everyone,
It's been such a long time since I coloured (or posted)
Still been crafting on and off just not an awful lot.
Went through a real bad slump but am slowly bouncing back.
Haven't coloured anything with my copics for about 2 years so I have started my colouring lessons again at kitandclowder and am already seeing a huge improvement.
For anyone wanting to improve their colouring I can HIGHLY recommend the classes.

WOYWW #381

Can't believe my last Woyww post was July last year.
I have been very lapse there.
Do pop along to Miss Julia's blog and join us.

WOW It has been so long since I created anything.
Health took a nose dive and although still not good it is at least allowing me to move.
My hands still hurt like a bugger but I HAVE to do something crafty so I decided to sort out my dies.
They are now being organized into binders on magnetic sheets.
Looks much better than having them all in a heap in my drawer lol
