Halloween is end of October, it is never too early to make a Halloween project in September right?

An Early BOO!!!!!

Get to knowColleen.....


Hi, I’m Colleen Dietrich:  wife, super-proud mother of 2 girls (ages 10 and 14) and hopelessly-addicted crafter and blogger.   I’ve been ‘carding’ since 2007, and began my blog, Dietrich Designs, in May 2010.  Along the way, I’ve enjoyed making  friends who have the same addictions interests I do.   Card makers are the warmest, most caring bunch of people!  Visiting other blogs and seeing such amazing handmade beauty brings me pure joy.

Guest Designer

Get to know Lisette.....


Hi, I'm Lisette and I live in Sheffield, England. I am both excited and honoured to have been lucky enough to win a guest designer spot at one of the very first blog challenges I ever discovered with one of the friendliest teams and followers in blogland.  I'm new to blogging but have been crafting all my life. My ambition is to work full-time in the crafting world in some way. In my day job I work for a charity that trains people to set up healthy cooking clubs and to get people cooking good food from scratch. I was previously a primary school teacher and also had a long spell working for the BBC . I've been married for thirty years and have two grown-up (well sometimes!) sons. All three men in my house are very good at putting up with my crafting mess!

Pop over for some lovely projects!!!!

Get to know Michelle....


Hello everyone, my name is Michelle and I am french Canadian. I am so happy to be here as a guest designer on this great blog that is CCCB. I love paper crafting, scrapbooking, cards, stamping and a little bit of mixed media, I love to make my own paper flowers and ornaments too. I don’t think I have any particular style but I use a lot of ink in my projects. I really enjoy my handmade life. I love everything Vintage. Old books, frames, boxes, and when it is not old enough I age/distress it myself.
Have a creative week!

Michelle
