I’m SO excited about this off centre gatefold card using the Expressions in Ink Suite! I love everything about this suite. The Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper (SDSP) are to die for. In this off centre gatefold card, it shows off the paper beautifully. This set of stamps are Stampin’ Up!’s “distINKtive” patented […]

Fun, simple, Peekaboo card
I created this fun, simple, peekaboo card with the coolest set of dies! There are only two dies in the “Picture This” set. One cuts out multiple circles and the other cuts out multiple rectangles. Both dies have double stitching so that the die cut circles and rectangles as well as the “negative” space (apertures) […]
Blended card with quirky inside fold
Say hello to these adorable “Party Puffins”! This blended card with a quirky inside fold happened quite by accident. I was aiming for something quite different. Originally I had been aiming for a tri-fold but it became only a partial one. The best places to see puffins in the UK is the Channel Islands. Here’s […]

Their loss is no less felt and it is heartbreaking to have to say “good-bye”. Words seem so inadequate at times like these, and sending a card just […]
Tower block fold card
Eek! I recently discovered this fancy tower block fold card. It sounds complicated, doesn’t it, but there’s a method in the “madness”. I try to make the instructions as easy as I can for its execution! Evening Evergreen is such a rich green, and I love the combination of greens in the Pansy Petals 12″ […]
Easel Card with two-step stamping
I immediately thought of making an Easel Card when I clapped eyes on the Color & Contour two-step stamping bundle. It never ceases to amaze me how artists lay down a few scribbles and you immediately connect with the images. Did you think I coloured the images in with water colour pencils? It certainly looks […]
