My New Crafting Buddy

My son’s girlfriend Samantha comes into my craft ‘studio’ for a chat when she is visiting Jason and has always showed interest in my ‘stash’ that’s sitting around, eg. Oh this is nice what's it for, what do you do with this? - and making her fingerprints with my ink pads. Today she mentioned she’d like to try making a card sometime, I said now is as good a time as any! This is the card she created for my husband’s birthday next month. The stamped image she got right the first time she put on the embossing powder and heated it then using water colour pencils, water and brush coloured it in. I handed her various different bits of foiled card and when she made her choice I explained about matting & layering. I think it is fabulous for a ‘Newbie’ to cardmaking. So I have found a new crafting buddy, I hope she gets the 'bug' so we can spend lots of time crafting together while my son watches football.
