Starlight Foundation Support

March 10, 2009 · Leave a Comment

On the  20th March 2009 Captain Starlight will be visiting the Hervey Bay Hospital.  On this day I will be presenting him with a cheque for money raised from raffles held over several months last year.   Our group will continue to run raffles and fund-raise for the Starlight Foundation in 2009.  Hope you can join me.

This year International Card Day will be celebrated on October 3rd.   We will be hosting an all day workshop as a fund-raiser for Starlight Foundation.  All proceeds from door takings will go to this organisation.

Stamping is my passion.

December 31, 2007 · Leave a Comment

Stamping is my passion especially now that Stampin’ Up! ® has arrived in Australia and becoming an Independent Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator has made it an affordable craft for me.  I believe my addiction to paper started as a child with colouring books.  I always wanted to be an artist and paint with oils.  Unfortunately I don’t have the patience to wait for the paint to dry.   I became an accomplished Folk Artist in the 90’s and in 2003 began a journey with scrapbooking and card making.   

Card-making or Paper-craft  to me is about creating, variety and the ability to put feeling into my work.  The fact that you can push little bits of paper around a card front or scrapbook page and it always looks different, I find that truly amazing.  I did prefer abstract, messy and anything that is different.   However these days I like neat, clean with a crisp looking finish. 

I have never been one for sayings or quotes but the Statement Of the Heart from Stampin’Up! ® always makes me feel good….
