Cheryl's Bio

I HAVE BEEN MARRIED FOR 26YEARS HAVE 2 CHILDREN 25 AND 27. I HAVE 2 WEST HIGHLAND TERRIERS ALICE AND REX I LIVE ON A FARM IN THE COUNTRY NEXT TO THE NORFOLK BROADS,IN A TINY VILLAGE CALLED BARTON TURF.
I STARTED CRAFTING ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO BUT ONLY SINCE I HAVE HAD MY BLOG HAVE I REALLY TAKEN IT SERIOUSLY,ESPECIALLY WITH ALTERED ART,ATCS,AND THINGS.
MY LOVE IS STAMPING AND UNUSUAL IMAGES LIKE PAPER ARTSY STAMPS,WHICH I ADORE. HOWEVER,I LOVE ELISABETH BELL DESIGNS,AND SARAH KAY IMAGES TOO AS THEY CAN ALSO HELP CREATE A VINTAGE LOOK.
I AM ABOUT TO HAVE SOME OF MY WORK PUBLISHED IN CRAFT UK AN AMERICAN BASED MAGAZINE,EDITOR IS JODIE FOSTER.  SHE CONTACTED ME THROUGH MY BLOG TO ASK IF I WOULD ALLOW HER TO PUBLISH MY WORK, THE ADDITION IS DUE OUT AT THE END OF AUGUST,SHE IS HOPING THAT SOON IT WILL BE BASED HERE IN  THE UK AS SHE WANTS TO GET A WIDE VARIETY OF ART WORK,VINTAGE,ALONG WITH EVERY DAY CARD MAKING INTO THE UK MARKET.
I AM ALSO ON THE DT AT CREATIVE INSPIRATIONS CHALLENGE BLOG WHICH I HAVE BEEN ON NOW FOR ABOUT 6MONTHS.I LOVE CREATING THINGS EVERY 2 WEEKS FOR OUR CHALLENGE,BEING ON A DT AND HAVING A BLOG REALLY MAKES YOU THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX,AND AS I HAVE SAID I LOVE TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX.
WHEN I DESIGN I LIKE TO LAY OUT MY WORK THEN GO OFF DO SOMETHING ELSE THEN COME BACK TO IT TAKE ANOTHER LOOK,THEN IT GIVES ME TIME TO THINK OF COLOUR COMBO,DIFFERENT THINGS I CAN ADD AND TEXTURES.LOVE TO PLAY WITH MATERIAL,PAINTS,INKS,ANYTHING THAT REQUIRES MESS AND TEXTURE.
I HAVE ALSO HAD A PIECE PUBLISHED IN A MAGAZINE ALL ABOUT STAMPING,PLUS AM A MEMBER OF TRIMMCRAFT AND WAS MADE ATC DESIGNER 2008 AFTER JOINING LATE LAST YEAR.
I LOVE TO LOOK FOR UNUSUAL THINGS IN CHARITY SHOPS,OLD ANTIQUE SHOPS,LOOKING FOR JUST THAT BIT EXTRA THAT WOULD WORK ON ATCS AND CARDS.  CEREAL BOXES,ANYTHING LIKE THAT I WILL RIP,TEAR,CREATE JUST FOR THAT ADDED DETAIL,
BUT MOST OF ALL CRAFT HAS HELPED ME WITH DEPRESSION AND MEETING ALL THE BRILLIANT PEOPLE ALONG THE WAY HAS GIVEN ME THE CONFIDENCE AND STRENGTH TO CARRY ON HAVING  OSTEOARTHRITIS,ME CRAFT IS THE ONE THING THAT NO ONE CAN TAKE AWAY FROM ME AND THE ONE THING THAT I CAN CREATE,TO MAKE SOMETHING SO BEAUTIFUL KNOWING THAT I CAN MAKE SOMEONE ELSE SMILE IS ENOUGH FOR ME.

I have been crafting in one way or another for as long as I can remember but I started dabbling in paper crafts 11 years ago but have only been seriously paper crafting for the last 2 or 3 years.
