FEMALE journal page

Hi there,
Feeling so chuffed, massive pat on the back as I seem to have managed to navigate through my first post AND it worked.
Maybe I won't need to call myself computer illiterate for much longer!
A big thank you to some of the ladies who gave me the confidence to start up this blog - you know who you are from The Craft Barn and ladies who gave me advice on uploading pictures too.

Below is a picture I created using my beautiful neo-color II crayons - just love them, such vibrant colours.


Challenges entered:

 - The Craft Barn Alphabet Challenge - F
 - Crafty Calendar Challenge - Love Is In The Air
 - Natalie and Amy's Challenge - Hearts and Flowers
 - CraftStamper Challenge - Text Me

Bye for now,
Rachel

  1. Love your picture! Never even thought of that word! Congrats on the new blog. I just started one for these challenges and am having fun with it. It was scary in the beginning and I'm still learning how to do it. Look forward to reading more of your posts.

    1. Craft Barn was my local craft shop and sadly they had to close, it's a real shame, I always like to see the craft materials in person and was always tempted to buy more than I need - not quite the same when buying things online

  16. I'm really, really late visiting, but so glad you joined us in Blogland, because you create beautiful art. I especially like how you incorporated the hearts and made them fit so beautifully. Obviously, I'm here from the Craft Barn challenge, but am really impressed with both your drawing and blogging abilities!
