Another quick post because this card was very simple, but I think it worked out well. I make a fair few scout related cards so was happy with a new idea of using the old “dyb, dyb, dyb” cliché. It would have actually been pretty speedy to make using the electronic cutter, but for someContinue reading “Dyb Dyb Dyb”

Chill in the sun
Its a Stamp Anniething DT Tuesday and I thought I would continue with my pencil stencil experiments and have a go with the Tiki Hut Stencil Builder by itself this time! Just as in my recent FB Live, I made a pastel background to start with, then used pencils on top! I also decided toContinue reading “Chill in the sun”
Fortnite
Thought I would do a speedy post today and share something that might be useful! Fortnite themed card for a teenager. Cos we can’t always make the themes we prefer to make! 🙂 It was a personal use card, I found some free downloadable elements and constructed a picture using them. I decoupaged the mainContinue reading “Fortnite”
Flowers and Buttons
Back on the marathon card catch-up! I made this set of flowery cards using a free set from Making Cards Magazine, and maybe some elements from previous sets from them that matched well. Also a personal challenge this set was to use some buttons, I’ve always struggled to make buttons look intentional and not likeContinue reading “Flowers and Buttons”
Balloons!
Another LOTV character, this is Scruffy Edward, and I used him for a Baby Shower card! I had already made this family a baby shower card with a balloon theme, so decided to keep the balloon theme for their second child! I don’t often colour with copics these days but decided they would be perfectContinue reading “Balloons!”
Simply Santa

I thoughtContinue reading “Simply Santa”
Polka Dots First Birthday
I went for a little look for other LOTV baby cards and found two more! Perhaps I should try to sound more organised! It’s a rather long outstanding blogging list, I confess. doh! So I ma back with Polka Dot, from Lili of the Valley that I coloured with polychromos for a commissioned first birthdayContinue reading “Polka Dots First Birthday”
Clouds
I have a fair few baby related cards I haven’t got round to blogging. Often they feature a Lili of the Valley image, still my “go-to” digistamp brand for baby cards. They are really lovely to colour. I hadn’t coloured up “Clouds” before, because I correctly imagined that it would take a looooooonnnnnng time forContinue reading “Clouds”
Atelier Collage
Had a super book for Christmas, called Atelier Collage by and artist called Seiko Kato, who makes amazing collaged images that I would love to have the skills to emulate. This book is full of projects to cut out and make yourself, with lots of guidance on how to assemble them. I like tortuous fussyContinue reading “Atelier Collage”
