Cards, Gift Boxes and Invitations

Hand made cards for all occasions which can be personalised to how you would like e.g. insert name , age, whichever colour, what size/type of card you would like, etc. I also make Gift Boxes which again can be personalised as required.

I hand make wedding/birthday/anniversary invitations, but these will require instructions from you, then they can be made to how you would like. I do have some samples I can show.

I have an extensive range of craft equipment to make all types of cards, gift boxes, t-shirt printing, mug printing, furniture decoupage and if I dont have it I will try and get it to make whatever you would like to be perfect for you.

My name is Tina, I am in my late 50’s (closer to 60 than 50!), I have 2 children, 3 grandchildren, a Staffy called Daisy, a French Bulldog called Rodney and a Blue Persian cat called Moses. I live in Ascot, Berkshire and have done so for many years and work full time in an office.

I started crafting in 2018 after flicking through the channels on the television, as I couldn’t find anything I wanted to watch, and came across a craft channel. I started to watch it and just got hooked. After a few months I realised that I wanted to give it a go myself so I taught myself all sorts of crafting after watching hours of demonstrations on the tele and internet and decided to buy as much as I could afford so I could make my own creations. I then realised that I absolutely loved it and found it kept my mind busy and was extremely therapeutic.

I soon found that Crafting made me feel relaxed during and after. It did not matter how long things took me or how fiddly there were I would spend hours sticking bits of paper, glitter, gems, and all sorts here there and everywhere, even on me! I would then spend ages cleaning up a mountain of bits of paper, glitter and peel the gems off my arms where I had lent on them, which would always make me smile. It often made me laugh when I would go off to do some shopping with gems stuck all over my clothes and arms without realising, I think I even had some in my hair on a few occasions! And don’t get me started with glitter, we all know how far that travels. I think me, my house and my pets have a glitter sheen which makes everything sparkle.

I have now made so many things that I have run out of space to store it all so I decided to attend some Craft Fairs and sell what I have made so far.

Thank you for taking the time to read the description of my business and I hope what I have made make you smile as much as they do me.

Take care and stay safe,

Tina x
