Well, this is all new to me, but it seems to be the in thing, so I thought I'd better give it a go!! Am busy preparing for a Christmas Card class I'm teaching in a couple of weeks....nearly there now, but it always takes so much longer than you think!! I'm really pleased with the cards I've made and hope my 'ladies' like them too! I'll let you know after the event!!
Hi. I'm Jayne and live on 'Planet Craft' in the North of England...it's truly a GREAT place to be!!!! I am married to Ian and mum to Bethany & Sam, our two gorgeous teenagers. Also sharing our home are our 2 felines, Daisy & Charlie.
I have 'crafted' for ever....from knitting with my nan to making dolls clothes. At High school my fantastic needlework teacher got me thoroughly hooked on sewing of all kinds, but particularly on dress making. I used to buy a piece of fabric on Saturday mornings and go out wearing it on Saturday night!! After having the children I moved onto cross stitch and embroidery, with soft furnishing and batik along the way. Paper
crafting entered my life about 4 years ago and it is just the best thing!!!! I never thought it was possible to do SOOOOO many things with a piece of paper!! BLISS!!
