This is the Golf Clubs digistamp from Dr.Digis, combo’d with numbers from the Balloon Numbers Set. Here is a close up of the Golf Club stamp, I also re-orientatedContinue reading “Tim’s 70th”

An increasingly rare event, a commissioned card! This is Pablo the Painter, and I have coloured him up whilst he is working on a portrait of Pugsley! (I removed Pugsley’s antlers as it wasn’t a christmassy theme!) Here is what the stamp looks like in the shop – And here is a close up ofContinue reading “Happy 80th Pablo”
Oscar and Oksanna
Had in an 80th commission for an owl themed card and Oscar and Oksanna, digistamp from Dr.Digi, were the perfect fit! Customer was very happy with the card I am pleased to say, and as normal I thoroughly enjoyed colouring up all those feathers! Here is what the stamp looks like in the shop –Continue reading “Oscar and Oksanna”

I added several personal details into the card, as well as a friend I made a card for not long ago, lol!Continue reading “Bike Retirement Card”

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!”
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”
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!”
