Some time ago, I used rub-ons on my soap dispenser to make it more visible as both the dispenser and my worktop was black, I couldn’t see it! Well, you can use it to embellish a card too! My card “topper” was Real Red, cut a tad smaller than the base card in Whisper White. […]

Ovals All and Top Note Template
Fellow Team Mate, Vannessa, made a similar card for the Inspiring Inkin Challenge #2 and I liked it so much I wanted to have a bash at it myself. My favourite colour is blue, so I thought I ought to try a different colour combo this time. I’ve used Always Artichoke for the card base, […]
Just Beachy – Gel card

Bloomin’ with Beauty
