Learning New Apps-and Valentine Work in Progress

Valentine card front work-in-progress...

Hello there

If you've just looked at this Valentine-themed image and thought, "Surely the year can't be going *that* fast," then, if you're reading this close to its posting date, I have good news for you. You can relax, it really *is* only January...

But that also means that I need to get a move on with a fresh clutch of Valentine's ideas for crafters (though if you need one right this second, the designs from previous years are also here and here).

Everything's going well, (despite my gradual move to an entirely new set of design apps, of which much more in a later post). The move will eventually mean that I can give you much better designs, much faster.

Right this second though, the learning curve is steep, and so designs are appearing more slowly. So, rather than toughing everything out, I thought it best to 'fess this up to you, show you that there *are* going to be brighter and more beautiful designs soon...and dare to post a, "work-in-progress" picture...

If it's whetted your appetite though, please check back in my Craftsuprint store in a few days, and this one should be finished and up for sale. Update on 23/01/25: the completed design is available here.

In the meantime, hope all's well with you, and thanks *so* much for being here, and for reading down this far.

More soon

New Design: Map of My Heart

A customisable version of this "Map of My Heart Card,"
 is now available on Zazzle.

Hello there, and hope all's well in your corner of the world.

This week, I was finally able to upload and post this card for sale. Originally I designed and sent it to my husband Jim, (a man who definitely enjoys a map).

With his enthusiastic agreement, a version of this design that you can customise for a romantic anniversary, Valentine or other romantic card for a map lover, is now available at Zazzle. 

The fonts used are slightly different over at Zazzle, but mean you can change the card much more for your own use. (You can also download and print out the card there, if you'd prefer).

Plus... an extra sneak peek

I did *not* however, share the illustrated envelope over at Zazzle. But I thought you might like a peek. (Don't worry, it's not rude or anything..just cute).

This illustrated envelope definitely isn't for sale...

That's all from here for now. Hope this makes you smile and/or is useful for you or someone you know on a special occasion, especially if they like maps.

As ever, thanks so very much for being here.

More soon.
