Look what my fairy godmother sent me! I just had to use it to make a birthday card straight away. Hopefully the lady I sent it to would’ve seen it by now and that it’s safe to post on my blog – I was really pleased with the result. Last year, when my BIL visited, […]

Itty Bitty Buds – variation on a theme
I used the same stamp set, same colour combo, but used a portrait layout. The bottom half was randomly stamped, and the top half I used different stamps from the same stamp set and stamped “Happy Birthday” seperately then matted on to Pink Passion which was adhered to card base with dimensionals. This is the […]
Itty Bitty Buds
I can’t believe I’ve had this Level 2 Hostess Set since last October and this is the first time I’ve actually used it! It’s been buried under so many other stamp sets that it just got overlooked time and again! Pink Passion is one of the colours that is retiring in October, so I’ve used […]

Inspirin’ Inkin’ July Quarterly Glass challenge
My Stampin’ Up! Mummy, Amanda, set us a challenge to transform a glass into a Hostess gift at our last Quarterly back in May and it was judged today. First, let me say how fantastic all the other entries were too, some did glass painting, rub-ons and wraps for their glasses and popsicle sticks with […]
Inspiring Inkin Challenge#31 Birthday card with any pink shade
This fortnight’s Inspiring Inkin’challenge was to make a birthday card and the side twist was to make it any shade of pink. I won’t go into too much detail as this is what the ladies who attend my “Stamp with Elaine” club will be doing. We meet every third Tuesday of the month, so if […]
