Flowery background paper is from an 8×8 Paper Pad called – Midsummer Mornings from Tonic Studio. The bling is from B&M bargain,Continue reading “Thank you, dog version!”

Thank you!
A quick pair of Thank you Cards using freebie papers from Making Cards Magazine! Figure if I can make a couple of cards from every mag, I pay for the subscription. Like the logic? lol! I am also on a personal mission to use up my ancient brad and ribbon stash! Also just making sureContinue reading “Thank you!”
Birthday at the Zoo
I think I have had several fun birthday outings to the Zoo, it’s one of my fav things to do, tho I think I might be a bit of a photo-bore and always trying to grab a good shot! My friend Amy Hurley Purdie recently did a set of cards using some of her awesomeContinue reading “Birthday at the Zoo”
More balloons!
My penultimate catch-up post! Finally nearing the end of the outstanding posts list! I seem to have been at it for ages, lol! This card was a lot of work, though I really wanted to have a go at a “Shadow Box” style card regardless of how hard it might be. This was a commissionContinue reading “More balloons!”
Koi

I added stickles glitter glue, flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and Bling from Shimelle. I tried a few versions of it, I also like thisContinue reading “Koi”

We had been talking about stag tattoo designs for yonks so this is why it has a bit of a tattoo-ish feel about it. She does now have a stag tattoo, but not this design. ThisContinue reading “Oh Deer.”
Pub Quiz
This is a 21st birthday card commission, for a great crafty friend who wanted something pub themed for her son who has landed a great job with one of the pub chains. It was pretty hard to take a picture of, it’s both very large and a Z -fold. But if you layout in thisContinue reading “Pub Quiz”
Magnolia
I made a couple of cards using a white heat-embossed Magnolia Stamp and Gansai Tambi Watercolours. I then printed greetings onto vellum to pop a sentiment between the flowers. I also added some sequins from the stash. Magnolia Stamp is from Sheena Douglass, A little bit floral. I am not keen on using her stampsContinue reading “Magnolia”
