Hi, I'm Helen

Welcome to my crafty world…

I have been creating cards and papercraft projects for around 18 years. It is my passion and I love to share the skills and tips I have learnt along the way.

It is a privilege and joy to be able to teach my craft to others from around the world and to be able to share creative inspiration.

Grab a cuppa and join me

Helen xx
