I finally had time last night to play with my new goodies from Time for Tea Designs! I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to try out their Die-Namic Display Card dies, as I’ve seen plenty of cool 3D cards around, but never tried anything like that myself. Seriously, how cute are these sloths?? They’re also…

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…

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…

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…

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,…

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…

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…

One of my brilliant friends just celebrated her twins’ first birthday. An amazing milestone for any Mama, not least because she’s had to bring them up in lockdown for most of the year, with her toddler son at home, too. So, I decided to make a couple of special cards to celebrate! How cute is…

Well, I recently discovered the joys of cardmaking, and I would not know a fraction of what I do now without the amazing cardmaking community out there. I have pored over Youtube videos; tutorials; blogs; Instagram and Pinterest…

Little Signage Agenda – new baby card
I was scrolling through my photos this afternoon and realised I’d not posted this new baby card I made for a friend a few months back! To make the background, I ink blended a slimline panel with distress oxides (speckled egg and tumbled glass, I think!). I then sprinkled it with water to add some… Read more

I donut know what I’d do without you…

Heffy Doodle challenge – Tone on Tone
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,… Read more

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… Read more

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… Read more

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… Read more
