1st blog upload for 2014 and 1st rocker card

Not blogged for well over a month as I've not finished any projects for sometime now, mainly due to poor health and having to move out of my home for major renovations, we now have a brand new kitchen and bathroom, will take photos when we have got them back to how they should be, very happy with them.

I needed to make a birthday card for a Docrafts forum friend, and as its been tricky getting to my stash I have concentrated on crafting I could do on the sofa, mainly colouring in stamped images and cutting out and layering up decoupage, finally I finished a card this week, just in time for her birthday next week.
 
The decoupage/rocker card kit came from a free Crafts U Print gift in recent craft magazine, cant remember which one, the pink glitter card came free with the same magazine. I decoupaged the card and used silicone glue to give depth, you cant see the layers too well in the photo. I used the base of the rocker card as a template for the pink glitter card and just cut it out 2 - 3mm wider.
 
thanks for any comments, Fi x
