What's In A Title?

The blog title is my take on my favourite quote from Stephenie Meyer's Twilight novel, when Bella realises she is in love with vampire Edward. My version is slightly less impressive than that in the book but never the less true:


"About three things I was absolutely positive, first I was an obsessed crafter, second, there was a part of me - and I didn't know how potent that part might be, that thirsted for beautiful craft materials, dies, stamps, papers, cardstock etc, and third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with scrapbooking and cardmaking"

Mother's Day 2013

This is the card I made for my mother-in-law for Mother's Day.  I went a bit mad with the glimmer paper and stickles, I'm sorry, I couldn't help it, they made me do it.  Stampin' Up! are giving away some packs of silver glimmer paper with qualifying orders and I have a few packs.  It comes in silver but it colours really well with a few squirts of coloured mist.  Here I've spritzed it with a bright pink mist and the heart and penant were cut from the silver paper but I gave them a spritz with a dark grey mist just to give it a stronger colour.  I also spritzed some white flowers to got at the top.  I've added stickles around the heart doily, had to, because I put glue around the edge of the doily and it lifted some of the pink from the glimmer paper underneath and leaked through the doily.  The stamp is from Lili of the Valley.
