Black & White Birthday Card

It seems ages since I've had an desire to make a card, but I think I have realised why I lost my mojo. I've always done quiet simple cards and always stuck with the less is more moto!!! I think with all the fantastic blogs around and the talented card makers I started to doubt how good my own cards were against their creations. Decided to go back to my old style, they might not be the most imagitive cards, but the ones that I enjoy making the most.

Anyway I had this image from Hans and I just love it, so decided to make a girlie card with it.

Great to hear you feel youve got your mojo back. I know what you mean about browsing through the cards on blogs. Some of the ones I like would take me 3 hours!!!! Hope you are well and give me a ring sometime!!! I am no longer working so at home all the time!! XX

Don't doubt yourself Tara, your cards are lovely. I love this one, really classy. It would be boring if everyone's cards were the same. x

It is beautiful Tara, I know exactley where you are coming from I feel the same way and so inadequate but I have come to the conclusion as long as I am happy with them and the people that receive them are happy thats all that matters. Sue :o)
