• Tree of Life shaker card

  

  Hi everyone! It’s been a while since my last blog post, as I’ve been so busy with work and childcare I’ve barely found time to craft, let alone blog! However, the new release from Time for Tea Designs is out today so I can finally start showing off some of the cards I’ve been making…

• Con-grad-ulations

  

  As soon as my friend Rebecca told me she was going to apply to retrain as a nurse, I knew she’d ace it. She’s super caring and smart and of course she was offered a place everywhere she interviewed! So, obviously I had a card already made and waiting to go when she was offered…

• Get well soon

  

  I love this botanical diamond die from Taylored Expressions. It comes with a number of sentiments, so it’s really versatile! On this occasion, I needed a Get Well Soon card for my good friend who, along with her family, is suffering with Covid right now. I started by heat embossing the image in gold on…

• Alcohol ink floral cards

  

  So, I’m jumping on the alcohol ink trend… I’ve been eyeing up beautiful alcohol ink cards for months, too nervous to try it myself, but it was my birthday recently, so I asked for a few basics to get me started. I won’t go into the detail of how I created these backgrounds today, as…

• 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…

• 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…
