Hey guys, I hope you’re enjoying Time for Tea’s Valentine’s inspiration week! Today, I’m sharing another cute and punny card (I love a good pun on a card) which is destined to be my husband’s Valentines card… As a total bonus, this card was pretty quick and simple to make (I made it during my […]

Hi! Today I’m sharing a card I made for this month’s Heffy Doodle challenge (tone on tone projects). After searching my Heffy Doodle stash, I picked out the Hello Squeakheart stamp set and decided to make my own patterned paper background by repeatedly stamping the cheese image. I mounted the image on an acrylic block, […]

Valentines Day is coming up fast, but what if your special someone is a four-legged friend?! We all know how special our pets are, so why not make a card celebrating your own fur baby? To make this card, I started out by die cutting the Dotty Hearts Cover Plate die from soft pink cardstock […]

Happy New Year to all my lovely followers. One thing I’d love to do more of in 2023 is memory keeping, so I’m starting as I mean to go on, and sharing a memory keeping page I created with the recent Time for Tea Designs mini-release, capturing some of our favourite Christmas traditions. For the […]

Hey friends, how are you? Are you ready for Christmas yet? Quite honestly, I’m not! I love Christmas, but it seems to have crept up so quickly this year and I’m not feeling festive quite yet – however, getting stuck in to some of my Christmas cards with the new stamps and dies from Time […]

Well, I’ll be honest – I wasn’t sure whether to enter this card in the competition at all, because some of the entries are just crazy good. However, I did take a lot of care over colouring my characters and I like how the card turned out, so if nothing else, I could end up […]

Do you love CAS (clean and simple) cards, or are you scared of them? I LOVE them but I find them so hard to pull off! Nonetheless, I decided to give it a go for the MFT Card Design Superstar: CAS Genius category. For some reason, I thought it would be a good idea to […]

Hi friends! For anyone that has been following me for a while, they’ll know that I am a big fan of MFT Stamps, so I was super excited when they announced their Card Design Superstar competition recently. I didn’t get time to take part last year, so I really wanted to get involved this year! […]

I love a Wow Trio, do you? Today they’ve released two new ones, and they’re lovely- to me, they feel very autumnal and rich! For today’s card, I’ve used the Ancient Orient Trio (Tarnished Brass, Vintage Turquoise and Turkish Coffee). I’ve been wanting to try a new-to-me Stamp Your Life project kit from Altenew called […]

My friend recently asked me to make a congratulations card for her friends who had recently married. Their wedding invitations had cacti on them, so I decided to adapt a couple of the cacti from Clearly Besotted’s Prickly Plushies set. I stamped the cacti with alcohol marker friendly black ink, then used a pencil to […]

Polkadoodles Valentine’s cards
I was recently lucky enough to win the new Hearts & Happiness collection by Polkadoodles. I knew as soon as I saw the two adorable little stamp sets included that I wanted to make some clean and simple Valentine’s cards with them. For the first card, I cut a slimline panel, and made a pink […] Read more

Happy Valentine’s Day
I’d already made a card for my husband but it was a bit… pink. So, when my new Mama Elephant stamps arrived, I had an idea for a more masculine card (but still cute) card using the Wish Upon A Star set. I started by figuring out my scene and placing the stamps where I […] Read more

Dandelion Wishes another way
I am absolutely loving this stamp set at the moment, so I thought I’d do another version with alcohol markers rather than coloured pencils. I decided on the layout I wanted for the scene, lined up the stamps on the page and used the MISTI to stamp them in Gina K obsidian black ink. When […] Read more

Dandelion Wishes
Do you ever go through phases with your crafting where you can’t get enough of one particular style or technique? I do, big time! When I first starting cardmaking, I was only really interested in diecutting, and a little stamping. I was never interested in colouring, and certainly not critter cards. Yet, at the moment, […] Read more

For our birthday girl
It’s my daughter’s first birthday next weekend, so I wanted to make her a special card. Not least because she’ll be spending her first birthday in lockdown rather than celebrating with a party like we should be! I started by stamping all of the little foxes from Mama Elephant’s Little Fox Agenda in Gina K […] Read more

Hey Mama… You got this
I recently sent this card to a friend of mine who needed a little reminder that she is doing a great job. I think these strange lockdown times are affecting us all, not least those of us stuck at home with children to entertain and/or homeschool, whilst trying to juggle our own jobs and managing […] Read more
