Time to Craft is nearly upon me

Here is another card I made recently.   I have only got 3 weeks left and then I can craft to my hearts content.  However looking at my calendar May and June are pretty full.

I have got a workshop at Art From The Heart in Harrogate with the fabulous Dyan Reavely in June and in May I am going to an ATC meet in Skipton to help out a dear friend of mine Janet and do some demos.

Before all of that happens I have got to finish Uni.

To keep me going here is a card that I have made.
