Good Dr.Digi’s Friyay Morning to you! What a journey on the strugglebus today’s card was! So I did a card that turned out I couldn’t post, because of very specific family reasons, so I had a spare I had finished, went to use that and then realised that stamp hadn’t been released yet! So IContinue reading “Sharesies”

Watching A Movie?
Happy Dr. Digi Friyay! Again! Already! Having a quick break from Halloween Cards because I loved Mavis and Marco and couldn’t wait to colour them! Went very CAS this time, not even a floor under the chair added, lol! Here is what they look like in the shop – And here is my version, closeContinue reading “Watching A Movie?”
Birthday Zebra!
Commissioned First Birthday card today, and I went with a watercolour zebra and flowers to fit the glamourous zoo themed party plans! I haven’t tried to foil anything since… well at least 20 years, it was one of the first fun new techniques I tried out whilst getting into card making. Anyway TKMaxx has loadsContinue reading “Birthday Zebra!”
Ahoy Matey!
Back with my next watercolour stencil pencil card! This time I did a tropical washy background with the watercolours and used the Pier Stencil Builder on top. This is what the stencil looks like. I swapped the tree part to make a mirror image, moved the trees a little to stop it looking identical. AndContinue reading “Ahoy Matey!”
Faunomenal Birthday
Happy Stamp Anniething DT day! Also known as Tuesday! For my live this month I had a play with watercolour backgrounds and then the pencil-stencil thing over the top! I ended up making four backgrounds and have now processed them into usable cards! I love making backgrounds from play/mess/experiment sessions. I am going to startContinue reading “Faunomenal Birthday”
Flowery Zoo
I think these are called spinner cards? The animals are two sided and spin round. I actually found a super cute paper mobile kit (from Papermania) and decided it would make a different kind of card. When you make a lot of cards for the same family you have to think about fresh ideas! NotContinue reading “Flowery Zoo”
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”
Koi
This was a themed birthday card using a traditional koi tattoo image. I used zig markers and water to colour it, and then made it into a simple easel card. 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”
Oh Deer.
So this was a commissioned card for one of my besties. Her partner wanted something special for her 50th! 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”
