I am over the moon to have got to second

place. I’m so thrilled and excited – it is a

wonderful competition and I am honoured

o be the second place winner out of so

any fabulous entries. When we moved

ouse, our new neighbour took me to a local

cra centre and that’s where it all began;

I bought a die-cutting machine and some

stamps and haven’t looked back. I love

the pleasure of making cards, which I nd quite

mindful, and I enjoy seeing someone receive a

handmade card, tailored specically for them.

It feels amazing to be crowned the winner of the 2019 Cardmaker

of the Year competition! I was completely shocked and I cried

when Hayley informed me that I had won; I honestly didn’t think I

would. It was my rst time entering and with the popularity of this

competition, I never thought my cards would be picked! I have

always been creative (it runs in my family) and I’ve tried every cra

going but papercraing is denitely my favourite. I love to create

kinetic and 3D cards – when you see the surprised look on your

loved ones’ faces, it makes it all worthwhile.
