This stamp set has been in my personal collection for ages and I don’t think it’s ever seen the light of day until now. I made this for a dear friend who is convalescing at home after keyhole surgery three weeks ago. I took my time with this one, as she’s a fellow crafter and […]

I {Heart} Hearts, Vintage Vogue
Baja Breeze, Bermuda Bay card stock (from my personal collection) and Soft Suede was the colour combo chosen for my darling daughter and her husband’s anniversary card. I only ever use these two blues for special occasions, but now I know that Baja Breeze is one of the colours in our new colour renovation I […]
Bella Toile & retiring colours
Bella Toile is one of my favourite background stamps. This is a card I made early in August for a friend who has a penchant for green. Sadly Sage Green is retiring. I’m making the most of it before it disappears on 1 October this year. I’ve teamed it with Handsome Hunter which is also […]
Nursery Necessities
Our next door neighbour’s had a new addition to the family so this is a card in her honour. I’ve used Pink Pirouette and Whisper White card stock, Pink Pirouette and Melon Mambo ink. The background is the Nursery Letters jumbo and the heart was punched out with the new style small heart punch out […]
Good Neighbours
This Good Neighbours set from this year’s SAB period was just ideal for sending to someone who has just moved house. I can safely post this now as I am sure she would’ve received the card by now. This card is the middle step fold card. A view from the side. Share this… Facebook Twitter […]
A Get Well Card
I had to make this card real quick and raided my private collection to create this. My daughter’s FIL is having a hip replacement op so am making him a “get well” card. I just love the pun on words “Perk up”! It’s suitably masculine. The inside looked rather bare, so I stamped another image […]
Pressie for me – new stamps to add to my personal collection!
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 […]
