I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at
College many years ago, I now work as a Medical photographer part time but my
love was always drawing. I started cardmaking about 4yrs ago when I bought my
daughter a cardmaking kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug!
My daughter preferred scrapbooking. I then started looking online at other
blogs and this then became my passion and I loved sharing my cards with
likeminded people.
I love stamping and loved finding images, but sometimes I could
not find what I wanted so I started to draw myself.
This then has become my second addiction and I have never looked
back, I love thinking of new images, and its just fabulous to see others take
them and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue!
So if you haven't already take a look at Di's Digi Downloads, I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised. While you're there you can think about how you'd spend the $10 prize (should you be the lucky winner).
