WOYWW it's time for a "Cardathon"

That's when you suddenly have an urge to start making cards. What for? Well apart from the obvious Christmas ones, I thought maybe a "batch" of multipurpose cards could be used as gifts?

Here's the beginnings of all of the above ... "quick and easy" being the guidelines :)


Those three stamps which I have artfully arranged :) centre stage, were bought the other day at my local craft shop. They were on the Sale table and everything on the Sale table was half the Sale price! How could anyone resist?  ($6.50 instead of $60! And I will use them.) What am I doing showing you all this stuff? Pop over to Julia's and she will explain everything.

    Good for you getting a bargain, nice stamps too. I noticed you have some KaiserCraft Lush papers on your cards, that is my favorite paper and what the desk caddies are covered in. Thanks for visiting and leaving a comment.

    Happy WOYWW & Happy Crafting

    Such beautiful stamps and gorgeous cards too! What a bargain! We don't have a local craft store in my town so I have to do all my shopping online or wait until I can get to craft shows, so I really envy you. Have a lovely WOYWW and a great creative week playing with your new stamps, I hope! Julie Ann xx
