Happy 2020!

Can you believe 2019 is over already? It seems to have gone by in the blink of an eye!

2020 is already looking like it is going to be an exciting year, I have been chosen to be a  Trimcraft Maker!

I am so excited to have this opportunity and cannot wait to get started crafting. You may have noticed from my previous makes that I am already a big fan of the First Edition Paper Pads and Dovecraft ranges so this has been a crafting dream for me.

If you aren't already aware of Trimcraft I encourage you to take a look at their craft blog, its have a massive inspiration section which is great when your struggling with ideas and it showcases their wide range of products.

Halloween Treat Bags

Happy Halloween! Halloween is just around the corner and soon you will have Trick or Treaters knocking on your door and Halloween parties to get dressed up for!
