hi i'm Michelle, I am 39 years old. I'm married to matt, with 2 children. William 13 yrs old and Isobel aged 7. I started making cards in 2010 as a way to relax after suffering with postnatal depression. Unfortunately with working life and having our second child, Isobel. who has additional needs, my crafting got pushed to one side. Having recently renovated our new house I've been able to have my own crafty space again. I'm loving unboxing all my old supplies, and buying new of course. Its mainly card making I'm enjoying, but also had a little dabble in crochet and sewing over lockdown. I've decided to keep using my blog as a place to record all my makes, if only for myself. it was a real trip down memory lane when I found this again after 8 years!!! Of course id love to share my makes with others and learn from you all along the way.

handmade note / memo pads.


Fancied a change from card making today, so had a look through my stash for inspiration. I came across these cheap notepads i brought a while back and decided to make them more appealing. I covered some stiff board with decorative papers and ribbons and then attached the notepad, leaving space for a matching pen. I used fiskars eyelets and tools to attach the ribbon hanger and pen hook. I have also attached magnetic strips to the back so it can be mounted on frige/freezer.
