I am Mary Woolley, mother to 2 fabulous young boys and 2 Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs; Sarah a beautiful gentle 7 year old girl and my baby Chester a massive mischief, nearly 3 years old.
I love my children, I love my dogs and I love my craft!
Starting with knitting as a child, taught by my Mum, I preferred crochet and cross stitch. I discovered papercraft over 10 years ago and enjoy card-making, scrapbooking and ATCs. I particularly enjoy stamping and die-cutting but also enjoy parchment craft and jewellery making.
I have always loved to draw, doodle and paint with watercolours or acrylics and this has evolved to include zentangle.
So that’s me and this is my blog. I hope you enjoy looking around!
Mary,
Your cards are amazing! I love how your images melt and blend into each other. You are doing a great job on your blog – I am not good with a camera, so I appreciate the pics of your cards in their fine detail.
Thanks for following my blog. I have been stamping for several years now and only die-cutting for 2 so I guess you could call me a novice.
I don’t “do” facebook or twitter but will follow your blog too.
Have a merry Christmas!

Thank you so much for your lovely words. Mary x.
You’re very artistic! Back when my vision was better, I really enjoyed doing counted cross stitch–and I made a few baby afghans–but now I just write and cook.
I love everything you do! I have not got an artistic bone in my body lol You are very talented. So glad I found your little blog ❤
Thank you for your very kind comment. I’m not arty in any way I just enjoy playing.
Oh, I love to make ATC’s too! Sometimes I just sit down and start, and then I don’t want to stop. 🙂
I know the feeling….

I love your art. And your blog name is great..love it!

Hi! Your zentangle drawings are amazing! Would it be ok to use one of them as a background for a yoga picture if I give you credit? It’s just for a challenge I’m doing on Instagram (today)!
Thank you for your kind comment. As long as its a clear credit that its my drawing that would be fine on this occasion. Good Luck!
Thank you so much!!
Hi, I work for a UK independent music publisher, and we would love to use your treble clef design for one of our books. Could you let me know how best to contact you directly about this,
Very best wishes
