Sweet Sixteen!

-
The challenge over on the Secret Crafter is to use folds -
so I made an Easel Card only the second one I have ever made!
The sketch I followed is from the Sketch Saturday Challenge
The spotty paper is from my Forever Friends Parfait Pad
The swirly paper is papermania been in my stash for ages
The paper on the bottom of the card is from a Daisy & Dandelion pad
The flowers are some blog candy I won on Cute Card Thursday
The heart and the sentiment was done in word
The image is from the Sassy Studio Designs site
She is Alice but with her long socks and
knocked knees she reminded my of my daughter!
This card is for her as she is sixteen today.

No Cards But A Promarker Storage Project!

Anyone who know me knows I am a very organised crafter My promarkers have been driving me mad as they were in a number of different containers and I never seem to pick up the right container, so I decided I needed to sort it This is a CD storage box from Tescos it comes with 100 sleeves to put CD in You can find it HERE  but there are many others out there Being sad I had some Pro markers in my handbag so was able to try them in the shop for size!

So using an A4 piece of paper I scored out a box with two dividers so the pens do not fall over (I did warn you I was OCD)  This is the A4 piece of card with the score lines dotted and the solid lines are...
