Monica Collins

 Sunshine Creativity

My name is Monica and I live in Fort Myers, on the southwest side of Florida. We have eternal summer and I love that. My first love in the crafting world is my set of Prismacolour pencils. Other than an occasional play with some Crayola watercolours or small set of watercolour pencils, my Prismas are my only colouring medium. I am inspired by colour and music and have been doing some form of both all my life. Papercrafting, fabric and yarn arts and mixed media are my favourite pastimes. Thank you for having me.

Dawn Morris

 Welcome 2 My Happy Place

I'm a mother of 3 grown children and one beautiful grandbaby that I adore.

I love crafting, paper, fabric and glass that keeps my spare time thin.  

I love making things for the baby. 

Happy Crafting.

Explosion Boxes

Hi all! I'm Greeshma, married and living in Bangalore with my husband and beautiful one year old baby. I love to make pop-up cards and explosion boxes and I sell them online. I keep trying new tricks and techniques and love to keep each of my projects unique.

This month we also have another bonus prize of a set of Christmas stamps which will go to a chosen winner.
