Scattybrain

  Hello, how are you today I hope you are well and enjoying the lovely sunshine we are having. I have not been very productivity lately just been finding it hard to keep my head in one place at a time, I am also a scatterbrain.   Very disorganized never plan anything, I need to change this way and started planning my craft session before hand.   I am not to bad following projects with the outcome but there are lots of trial and errors, so I need to carry on practicing my cardmaking.   I have been following the project on Brambly Hedge by Crafter’s Companion I still have four more projects to do, and Fabulous Fashion by Katy Sue quiet a lot of project left there done five projects. Thank you for reading and have a lovely weekend.

Starting Point

I have a huge collection of craft items that I love but had no confidence in myself in making cards or any thing homemade/handmade.   My confidence is still not there, but I am ready to try and build my confidence and self-esteem.   I want to make handmade cards and send to friends and family

Started

I have made a few cards that turn out really well, with a few mistake, I have jumped in so I need to go back to the basic and build up that way.   So I can learn the basic and techniques, but still make cards to.   When I making something or doing techniques write down the steps and take photos of what I doing from start to finish.   It’s amazing how many techniques there is in making cards. Jot down how I feel about what I just done and my mistake, was it easy or hard and is there anything I would change remember to write down my mistake and what I would do to correct it.
