Morning Everyone!
Just thought I'd share some of my Christmas tags with you, that I made using Graphic 45's Joy to the World papers and their ATC tags.
I love fussy cutting, so really enjoyed making these and finishing them off with diecut snowflakes, glitter, Pearl Pen and twine.
Hope you like them!
Evening Everyone!
Just popping by to share another little Christmas Card - this time using Lawn Fawn's Den Sweet Den stamps. I coloured the bears to look like Polar Bears in their cosy home, using my Spectrum Noir Triblends.
Hope you like it!
Hi All!
Just popping by to share a dinky little shadow box card that I made for my friend's birthday. It uses the Lawn Fawn Shadow Box die and their cute fairy stamps. I coloured the images with my Spectrum Noir Triblends Sorry about the lighting - its a grim night here for photographing anything!
Hope you like it.
Afternoon All!
I'm off out this weekend for an early Christmas meal with four friends. I really wanted to make them all a nice card but something a bit different so I created these Chocolate Box Cards which hold a 135g bar of chocolate inside.
I used my lovely Graphic 45 papers old (12 Days of Christmas) and new (Let It Snow) to decorate them and wrapped the chocolate bars in coordinating papers. I couldn't bring myself to use large sheets of the Graphic 45 papers to wrap the bars lol!
Anyway, I hope you like them. I will wrap them in tissue and fancy them up and I hope my friends will enjoy the treat inside :)
Hi All!
This month I've got two birthdays coming up so I thought I'd share the cards I made using Hello Bluebird stamps and dies called 'Party on the Farm'. These are such cute images and I decided to challenge myself to only use pastel colours with my favourite Spectrum Triblends, and matching pastel background papers.
Hope you like them!
Morning All!
After a busy few months, at last, something to share!
I dug out some lovely Time to Flourish papers from my Graphic 45 hoard and made these four cards for my much needed Christmas Card stash.
I love the traditional colours on these December papers and the cut aparts make creating a card really easy. The black mats also make the colours pop.
Hope you like them!
Hi Everyone!
Just popped by to share a simple little circle card using an image sent to me by my good pal Mel Jess. Its a little sloth coloured with my Spectrum Noir Pens.
Hope you like it!
Hi Everyone!
Today I've added to my Christmas card stash with some cards I made using the lovely Annabel Spenceley stamp 'Oh What Fun' by Crafter's Companion. I love this little elf and he is great to colour in different combinations especially with your Spectrum Triblends.
I also used an older Embossalicious Embossing Folder for the background, my Moonstone Dies for the scalloped rectangles and Lawn Fawn papers.
Hope you like them!
Hi All!
Hope you are all keeping well!
Its been a while since I posted, as life has just seemed to be so busy lately, but hopefully now I'm back on track :)
Here is my little Summery card using Hello Bluebird stamps and my Hunkydory Scalloped Oval dies. The images are coloured with Spectrum Noir Triblends which I love!
Hope you like it!
Hi All!
Hope you had a good Bank Holiday Weekend! Just sharing a dinky little card I made with my Hello Bluebird Fairy stamps and coloured with my Spectrum Triblends. The papers are older K and Co papers from my stash. Hope you like it!
Hi Everyone!
Well, despite having some snow, there was some sunny periods over the Easter weekend which makes you dream of summer days to come. I decided to make some BBQ themed cards for men using an older set of Lawn Fawn stamps called Let's BBQ.
The lovely papers and the banner die were a prezzy from my crafty friend Mel (thank you), and the images were coloured with my favourite Spectrum Noir Triblends.
Hope you like them!
Hi All!
Just thought I'd pop by and share my latest make - a card I created for my cousin's daughter. I decided on a shaped oval card using Hunkydory's Moonstone Scalloped dies. The stamps are an older set from Lawn Fawn called Critters Ever After and I went for a purple, grey and pink colour scheme, coloured with my Spectrum Noir Triblends.
Hope you like it!
Hi All!
Just fancied making a Christmas card for the stash this week - so here is my make. Another little pop up card but this time using the older Critters in the Arctic stamps from Lawn Fawn.
Now...where is the sun...I need to get making some Spring and Summer cards lol!
The sun is out and I'm dreaming of summer, so I thought I'd share this little picnic pop up card with you that I made with one of the older Hunkydory Spring Decoupage ranges. I made the pop up box with my Lawn Fawn die and cut into the decoupage to make the little scene.
Hope you like it!
Back with a dinky card today. This is a mix and match card where I mixed up my old stash. The images are from a couple of Hello Bluebird stamp sets. The papers are older Lawn Fawn and K and Co, the trusty border punch is Martha Stewart, and the little banner is one I use a lot from Crafter's Companion's Shabby Chic range.
I coloured the images with my Spectrum Noir Triblends. Hope you like it - the bunny looks very chilled out lol! x
Morning Everyone!
I decided that I'd better get going on building a little Christmas Card stash so I dug out an old free stamp set called Christmas Florals by Pink Fresh that came with a back issue of Creative Stamping magazine.
I don't know why I have never used this stamp set as its lovely, but I decided to stamp and colour the images with my Spectrum Noir Triblends, fussy cut the images and layer up on a snowflake embossed white card for a bit of texture and dimension. I popped this on a red glitter card background, added a sentiment, a bit of Stickles, and job done. Two in the bag for my stash! lol!
Hope you like them - this style is easy to create with similar stamps that you may have :)
I would like to enter this in the following challenges:

Just thought I'd share a scrapbook page I've made using the lovely Crafters Companion Caring Thoughts collection. I 'vintaged' the papers up a little bit to suit my photo of my Great Great Grandparents 'The Hall's - with one of their sons. The base layer is one of the patterned vellums.
I wanted to use one of the Caring Thoughts frames so I cut my photo to fit. I layered up the papers, ripped and inked the edges, and tucked in a little bit of vintage lace. I then added plenty of fussy cut flowers from the papers before finishing with some Nuvo Drops. Hope you like it!
Afternoon All!
Just popping by to share a slimline card I've made using the lovely Gnomes from Hello Bluebird. They make such a happy, fun scene. I coloured them with my Spectrum Triblends and inked the background with Harmony Inks.
Hope you like it!
I'd like to enter it into the following challenge:
Today I dug out some Mintay papers from my stash called Farm Life and had fun fussy cutting some of the lovely images.
I decided to make four little cards and even added a bit of the lovely scraps of paper to my envelopes.
Hope you like them!
Afternoon All!
Just thought I'd share another little card I made with Lawn Fawn's Swan Soiree set. This time I made them into a Valentine's Card, but it would just as easily be perfect for an anniversary card too.
The papers are also Lawn Fawn from the Polka in the Dark pad. I coloured my images with my Spectrum Noir Classiques and decorated the inside to match.
Hope you like it - I'd like to enter it in the following challenge:

Today I thought I'd share a scrapbook page for a change. I love researching my family history and have lots of old photos so I've decided I need to copy and scrapbook a few more so that family in the future know who the people are.
I've decided to go with A4 layouts again as they are easier to store. I have just basic info on the front as all the details are printed on the back.
This photo is of my lovely mum as a very young girl, with her Gran, Martha. I used mainly Crafter's Companion papers from the Garden of Love range, fussy cutting the flowers, adding ribbon and a punched border, and the diecut sentiment.
Hope you like it!
