When I espied the Hats Off Bundle in the new Annual Catalogue on page 47, I knew it would make the perfect birthday card for a teenager! I have real difficulty with making cards for that age bracket. May has been such a busy month for birthdays. I have been churning them out like there’s […]

Pop out partially die cut birthday card
Warmer weather calls for a pop out partially die cut birthday card and ice lolly images! I’m so disappointed that the Ice Cream Corner Suite on page 49 of the January-June 2021 mini is retiring. There is such a short window to blog about this. iIce cream is one of my favourite foods! Is it […]
Floral Birthday card with Pretty Perennials
Do you like floral cards? In today’s project I used the Pretty Perennials stamp set to make a pretty floral birthday card. This isn’t a normal card. I made one back in 2018 but can’t seem to find it anywhere on my blog, so maybe I didn’t share it. This type of card is also […]

Sale-a-bration is due to end on 28 February. It’s your last chance to take advantage of the promotion. I’ve created this Trifold Birthday card with the “Hey Birthday Chick” stamps and dies which may tempt you. It’s been a “chicken” week this week as the stamps and dies didn’t arrive till the middle of February […]

I wanted to surprise my friend with something special to help alleviate such a traumatic day. Julie Kettlewell was a guest on the UK demonstrator FB group […]

Hello, how are you? In the UK, we are currently in our second lock down until December 2. At time of writing the USA elections were in full swing and Biden is now the President Elect. I try to stay apolitical and keep my views to myself so I stay away from social media platforms […]
Nothing’s Better Than 40!
My baby turns 40 this year – my, oh my – doesn’t it make me feel positively ANCIENT! This stamp set wasn’t on my radar at all. However, given that my daughter loves a cocktail or two, and not to mention chocolate, I thought….why not? With lockdown, we haven’t seen any family since Christmas. Lockdown […]
Zany Zebras plus Sneak Peek!
Wouldn’t you call these cute Zebras zany when you see them? They are the cutest ever! I found it difficult to visualise them in any other colour than black stripes. It just went against the grain so instead, I put the colour in the background! It’s the best way to use up scraps. As I […]
