Scary & exciting news

Hi everyone, just popping in to share my scary & exciting news....I've been chosen to be part of a new design team over at Kerry's Crafty Cards and Cuts!  This is all very new to me and I'm sure that I'll be learning lots from the other members of the team, Kerry, Alanna & Nicky.  They are very talented scrappers and I'm sure that over the next year, we'll have many gorgeous projects to share with all of you.  

At the moment, I'm working on some birthday cards.  I'm loving my copic markers so much, that I just have to use them on all of my cards!!  Here's a few examples:

These are all Digi Stamps from Make it Crafty (whose stamps I just adore!!)

I hope to have a few more to show you next time.



So, hope you are all having a great week - I'm going to try and get in as much scrapping as I can before the kids start school holidays!!

 

Welcome

Hi everyone and welcome to my brand spanking new blog page!!  You must all forgive me as I have NO idea what I'm doing but I'm sure with trial and error, I'll muddle my way through!!

My name is Sandra and I'm in love with all things papercrafted.  Just over a year ago, I began my little SAHM business, PinkPossum Designs.  I have been scrapbooking, cardmaking and papercrafted for quite a few years now.  I also love cross-stitching, knitting, crocheting, drawing and painting. 

I am mum to four gorgeous kids....two boys 14 & 11, princess 20mths and Lara, our angel in heaven who passed away at 10mths of age, just over 3 years ago.  I've been married for 16years to the most patient and loving man, who can still make me laugh and smile!

PinkPossum Designs was named partly after my little angel.  Lara spent most of her short life in hospital and one of the nurses there nicknamed her "possum" because she had the largest, brown eyes!  When we lost our angel...scrapbooking became my only way of coping with the immense grief.  I spent the next 6 months just solidly working on her album.  I am a self taught scrapbooker, so my first few pages would be completely different if I was doing them now!  But I am still very happy with the overall album. 

Here are a few pages from Lara's Album:

Each time I look at her album, I find a different page that becomes my favourite!  At the moment its the "sweet girl" page. 

Well, I hope to be able to show you more of my creations as time goes on.  If you get a free moment, please pop over to my facebook page www.facebook.com/PinkPossumDesigns and say hi!

Thanks

Sandra
