I had a lovely Mothers Day, went shopping with my daughter and had some lunch out which was very nice-hope you all had a lovely day however you spent yours.
I've had a little bit of a crafting wobble this week-someone made a comment on my cards and said I should make some that were more simple and with more general images-not the 'little girls' I normally use. I spent about three hours yesterday trying to do just that but I don't know, I struggled with it and felt a bit lost for a while. I ended up throwing three away, getting myself in a right old mood and then putting all my stuff away.
In the end I came up with this one -no flowers and no die cuts and although it is girly she isn't little!! I felt a little bit lost and my mojo definitely went AWOL but then figured I should just make what makes me happy and accept that it won't always be what other people may choose!
My image is from Pink Gem and is a pre-coloured version-I really love the colours on this one so chose to use this rather than colour one up myself and after spoiling three cards I felt I needed something a bit quicker.
My papers are from Lozzy at A Bit More Time to Craft and are from the Fun set. The only thing added is a sentiment and a couple of gems:

Aloha

I think this is my first time visiting you blog, but you have to stay true to who YOU are in your crafting. there will always be negative Nelly's around - you can't change that. but you have to be true to yourself. you will only be really happy with the crafts you create when you are YOU! :)
ReplyDeletenow, you have created a lovely card, but go back to being yourself. yes, challenge yourself, but maintain your uniqueness.
Thank you for joining our 'Woman/Women' challenge at Cardz for Galz! :)
