This month we are also featuring cards from two GDTs.
First of all we have Lorraine:
"My name is Lorraine Sexton, I am 66 years of age and I live
in West Sussex with my lovely hubby Kevin.
I have two children and two grandchildren.
I first started making cards probably 20 years ago. I used to visit the Craft Barn in Lingfield
which was started by a lady called Maggie Wright. She had first seen rubber stamps in the US
and thought it would be good to introduce them to us in the UK. Over the years I have progressed from rubber
stamping to try most techniques but my main love is still stamping and
colouring. One area I’m not keen on is
the “Grunge” look, I prefer clean lines, fresh colours and try not to overdo it
with embellishments. Like most other
papercrafters I have amassed a huge “stash” and I really should take stock one
of these days, but you never know when things might come in handy. I really get a buzz from sending my finished
cards to my friends and family and I try to tailor the design of the card to
the particular recipient. The only
complaint I get is that they can’t bear to throw them away so have an ever
growing pile of my cards!
My other interests
include gardening, birdwatching, walking, knitting and I also volunteer as a
Room Guide at Standen, my local National Trust property.
I would be delighted to be asked to become a Guest Designer
for Little Claire whose products I have liked and used over the years. I especially like using clear stamps but have
recently discovered digistamps which are so versatile"
And is Lorraine's gorgeous card:
Lorraine has used our 'Darling Daschunds' stamp set
Next is Colette
"My name is Colette and I have been Paper-crafting for 8yrs now. I have
always been interested in creating things since I was a child. I had a
stressful job, so crafting was a way of relaxation. I could make a mess in my
craft room and time would just pass and I would relax. I have been a fan of
Little Claire's Stamps for a long time and was a member of their craft club
from the beginning. I enjoy stamping, decoupage and any type of card making.
I am married to Tim and we have three grown up children, 2 basset
hounds, a border terrier and 6 hens. We live in a cottage that dates back to
1485"
And this is Colette's gorgeous card:

Susan has used a range of our Dinkies stamps - 'Dinkies Darling Elephants', 'Sweet Stamp', '3 Owls' and 'Rain Hogs' and various LC Designs Papers.
Gaynor has used 'Kitties - Irresistible Images' and 'Delicate Daisies' paper pack
Heidi has used 'Hunny Bunny' stamp, kraft tag card blank, sentiment from 'Wavy Doggies' stamp set and 'Delicate Daisies' paper pack.
Helen has used 'Dinkies Butterfly Cat', 'Pastel Gingham' paper pack and white tag card
