Happy Easter wishes – Daffodil Daydream
Hello! Happy Easter wishes to you all with Daffodil Daydream. Even though it’s just hubby and I, I’ll still be cooking a whole joint. Our son is still in isolation having caught Covid, and our daughter won’t be coming down this time so it’ll be a quiet one. I had my booster jab for Covid […]
Mother’s Day card – Flowering Tulips
A Mother’s Day card with Flowering Tulips. Mother’s day has crept up on me when I suddenly realised I’d almost missed it in my forward planning!

Say “hello” to the new Watercolor […]
Clean and simple card with All Squared away
A clean and simple card with the All Squared Away bundle for today’s post. I loved the samples in the catalogue of the All Squared Away bundle and couldn’t decide whether I should get them or not. So as you can tell, I lost the battle with my “sensible” head. Finally, I found time to […]
Clean and simple – less is more
I’m a great advocate of clean and simple cards and firmly believe that sometimes less is more. Too often I feel I’m short changing people if I don’t put more effort into a project, particularly when making card. In most of my tutorials, I incorporate a fancy fold, or layers etc, and on occasion I […]
