- About me…. After forty years of the daily hustle, I officially traded my briefcase for a crochet hook in September 2025! My life is a colourful tapestry woven with love, family, and a lifelong obsession with making things by hand. When I'm not lost in a sea of paper (my favourite obsession since 2008!), you’ll find me adventuring with my husband, John, and our big, fluffy shadow, Moosh—an 8-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog with a heart as big as his paws. My greatest treasures are my daughter, Lauren, and the three little stars who call me Nana: Harper, Callie, and Casey. I’ve been crafting stories and keepsakes since childhood, and now I finally have all the time in the world to let my imagination run wild! ✨🧶✂️

Autumn is well and truly here! So refreshing to have cooler evenings isn’t it? This weeks card was created using Winter Botanical dies and coloured using distress inks in rich warm autumn colours, I layered the coloured leaves and bits around the sparkling-wreath-and-stars-craft-die. the sentiment was taken from digital-sentiment-strips-download- although its an Autumn card if you look closely I have cut the snowflake die cut in half also to use as Autumn leaves! you can find this in the Polkadoodles store by clicking HERE

Food and drink? Yes please!!
Another Saturday, it comes around so quickly! This week I have for you a food and drink project, yummy yummy! I wanted to create a soft palette for this card so I chose sage green and soft pink, I stencilled the background of the centre panel using a brick stencil again using the pink and green theme, next I stamped, coloured and cut out the images and place onto the 3 squares. There you go another card for you all…..did someone say cake?
