Time for change

If you missed my post this morning I am just writing this to let you know that I have stepped out of the crafters Companion Design Team due to deteriorating health and impending surgery.

I could not give a full years commitment to Crafters Companion which is what they needed for me to continue.

I feel lucky and privileged to have worked with some stunning products, with an amazing team of people but my health has to come first.

On a positive note I will be able to play with all those crafting goodies i have, that have never been opened as i haven't had time.

I will still be around blog land as an when my health allows but I will be keeping an eye on all of you Crafters Companions out there that I feel are true friends .

Thanks to everyone for their lovely comments about my work and for becoming followers of my blog.

All my love Cathy x

The 1st is full of fairies..lol. I created an easel card and used some of the papers from CD 1.

I die cut some coordinations using the diesire heart doilies which will be perfect for valentines day.....eek thats tomorrow!!!
The sentiment is from love is all you need sentimentals stamp set. It is on some coordination die cut using the grace Frame. Flowers and ivy finish this card.






This last card is another one for the boys. Coloured with Spectrum Noirs. 

Matted and layered onto black card and some coordinations that was embossed in the Dottie folder.
Backing papers from CD1

The sentiment is from the memories are made sentimentals stamp set and has been put on a decorative tag 1.

 A few paper flowers and the perfect card for a little boy.




Now for the sad news......this will be my last post for Crafters Companion as I am stepping out of the Design Team due to deteriorating health and I could not give the level of commitment that was needed by them. I will still be around keeping an eye on everyone creations but I will miss all the wonderful products that i have had the luck to play with first.
