Hi everyone, thanks for joining me today, it’s been a while! I thought I’d share with you a card I made recently for my daughter’s friend’s birthday. He loves dinosaurs, so I had to get them in somewhere! To make this card, I die cut and assembled a slider mechanism using the Heffy Doodle double

I’m so in love with the new release from Time for Tea Designs, especially the pull tab slider dies! Today I’m going to share how I made this cute interactive snail mail card, where the snail is delivering his letter! There’s quite a lot going on in this card, so I’ll break it down into

Do any of you guys follow Mona Toth on Instagram? She’s so inspirational and a few months back she made a see through shaker bookmark and I instantly fell in love with the idea (hardly surprising given that shakers and bookmarks are two of my favourite things 😂). I used the new tulips add-on slimline

I absolutely love the jammy dodger stamp included in the Teariffic set from Time for Tea Designs, so today I’m sharing another card project I made with it!

However, I’m so pleased for her and she’ll totally smash her new role! I had a galaxy background leftover from last week (see my

Happy Monday! Hope you had a great weekend. This weekend, I had my first attempt at making a galaxy background, and it was so much fun. I love how something that looks like a complete mess when it’s in progress can actually turn out to look so cool. To make the galaxy background, I applied

I love playing with new techniques, do you? For this card, I wanted to create a reflection in the duck pond, so I decided to give mirror stamping a go. I followed a tutorial by the amazing Jennifer McGuire, of course! To do this technique, you’ll need a stamp with a large solid surface area.
WELCOME!

Paper hugs
I bought this really cool Concentric Doodle cling stamp from Simon Says Stamp back in Stamptember last year, and still hadn’t gotten around to using it, so I thought it really was about time!
