been a looooong time!!

Oooops I don't know where the time went since I last posted!!! My mojo went for a wee holiday then Christmas and the ensuing madness came along and I just didn't seem to have a moment to do anything!! So my New Years Resolution is to blog more and fine time to craft. I am starting a job on Monday, just part time 3 days a week, but I am hoping the time out the house and the adult conversation will get me out of the rut I had got into. I wasn't doing any crafting even though I was doing very little in the evenings.

So here is my first card of 2012 :o) I had a great time making it too, really enjoyed myself.

Image: Sugar Nellie, coloured with promarkers

The stamp is a newbie one for me, I won some Sugar Nellie Stamps just before Christmas and this is her first inking, not going to be the last tho cos I love her :o)

Papers: Echo Park

Dew Drops, ribbon and charm from stash
