~ Some cards and special things ~

Hello and thanks for visiting the Attic.  Come on up and I'll  show you what I have been busy creating  recently...

I like to have some cards on hand for those special occasions and my supply was getting down so I needed to remedy that and
 I also wanted to get a special baby card ready for my soon to arrive little grand daughter.  Yes, I am about to become a Grandmother again for the fourth time. How exciting.

Here is a little video I put together to show you what I created. At the end, I show some still photographs of a couple of cards I had already mailed out at the time I made this video.





I also enjoyed creating these flower petals and don't they look so pretty and delicate in the bowl waiting to be used in future projects... Watch this spaace and I hope you will come back to see what I do with these :)


Thanks for joining me..

Hello and welcome to 'the Attic'

Well here I am back again.  After a break from blogging I have decided to start a new blog.

 'Grandmothers Attic' or simply 'The Attic' is where you will find me these days and as my description in the sidebars says...it is my place to come to create.

For many years my main focus in crafting was cross stitch but I found that after well over 20 years of stitching, my interest started to fade and other crafting has taken centre stage. I made some beautiful friendships whilst stitching which I still treasure.

I love the You Tube community and the friendships I have made with like minded people and in this day and age when computers are at our fingertips I am amazed by the fact that  distance seems no barrier in creating new friendships.

Anyway.. Welcome to the Attic.  I would love you to drop by and spend some time with me either here or on YouTube  (hopefully both). I'll make us some tea, we can have a chat about this and that and I will show you the latest 'finds' from the Attic....

Until next time....
