Wisdom!

The challenge on Cards for Men is for a Multi Fold Card
On My Time to Craft its Quick Quotes
I think this sort of card is called a shutter card
I found the instruction on a free craft site through google
It looks complicated but was quite easy to make
The paper is from a bargain pad of Quickutz Papers in the local shop
Its mounted on Mira card
The quote is one I have saved on my PC and I cannot remember were it came from
but it says:
'Wisdom does not come with age..
.. sometimes age just shows up all by itself!'
The image is from Pollycraft and is being sold to raise money for the
Yorkshire Air Ambulance Charity
So pop over get yourself a great digi image and help a good cause
The link is HERE
I have coloured the image using my promarkers

Love your card Nicky, and that sentiment is a blast! I used it a couple of years ago on my Dad's birthday card and felt it was strangely appropriate! Jo x

No Cards But A Promarker Storage Project!

Sorry not a card but I have been working on this, hopefully some cards soon. 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! Each sleeve holds seven promakers and each section comfortable hold 10 sleeves or eleven with a little bit of a squeeze As I said I like things very organised or as my DH says OCD! I used some adhesive labels in my Craft Robo and cut out the little circles this way they were still attached to the backing sheet I could colour them and then peel them off with my poky tool and stick to the ends of the pens I also have put a coloured circle on the bar of ...

Promarker Storage Update

Now when I first started collecting Promarkers I used a travel CD case to transport them and it has worked really well you can see the original  HERE . I then also started to collect some flexi markers and the promarkers brought out some limited edition promarkers so I decided I needed them!        This meant my storage box was no longer large enough so I started to look at ways to improve it I brought a slightly larger box from E-Bay then set to improving the insides I realised if I made some boxes for the pens I could store more in a row, than using the CD sleeves. 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...
