My life before cards

Here I will show you some things I did before I got back into cards and stamping.

I always played with papers and made cards from when I was about 15. I always did this with my MIL at xmas I helped her with her cards while I was at their house. Then I started to make cards with Pergamano and was introduced to someone who made fantasy dolls. And I was hooked Before the class that I took was over I had made 4 trolls at home ;) and the teacher asked me for advice! Doesn’t that sound weird. Well it did to me ;) Those troll and witches all had fabric clothing and I decided that was not for me after some years and started to sculpt the total character out of clay which was so much more fun then sewing which I hated ;)   I do have more pics of my older work but I could not find it yet but when I find it I will add it to ;)

So I became a Polymerclay Artist :) I sculpted fantasy figures for a long time mostly little dragons full of misschieff ;) those where the most fun for me to make.  Those dragons helped me thru a real difficult time inmy life. And I stopped when I didn’t needed them anymore at least I can’t sculpt one anymore for some weird reason. And believe me I have tried even last year I tried and I ended with a half dragon that never wanted to be finished. Well after that I started to make beads and jewelry with my clay well what else was there to do with all that stash. Shame to throw it in the bin i think :) and so I begun a jewelry business which I ended last year because My heart wasn’t in it anymore and I have had carpal Tunnel syndrome since I was 19 and I have had 3 surgeries for it and still it isn’t gone. After claying I am still in pain for at least 2 weeks so that is not the road to follow for me ;) and I started to play with my papers again and boem there I was in Blogging land ;) making cards and more cards ;) and enjoying every single minute of it ;) Althaugh I do hope to make a dragon again one time…..
