Wedding Wishes!

One of my downlines got married at the end of August, and this is the card I made for her wedding day.  There’s also a sneak peek of a new item from the Autumn/Winter catalogue which will be live on September 1st so to say I’m excited is an understatement! The card base is made […]

Rock N’ Roll with Best of Flowers & Happy Day

Here are the other cards we did at Card Club using the Rock N’ Roll technique.  The colour combo here was Blushing Bride and Calypso Coral.  The leaves were cut using the 1-3/4″ circle punch.  I’m show casing the Best of Flowers set as they will no longer be available by the end of March […]

Backyard Basics and a Sneak Peek

This set has been sitting on the shelf, neglected and unloved waiting for the opportunity to see some ink! My brother-in-law recently had a birthday and he loves his garden, so it was now or never!  There are a couple of sneak peeks in here too – as the new Autumn/Winter catty launches on 29 […]

Mosaic Christmas

Sorry for the drunk angle of the picture!  This is the debossed side of the embossing folder.  There’s no right side or wrong side with this folder – it’s a question of preference.  I featured this side with the mosaic tile raised so you could see the difference.   This set is so versatile – […]

Best of Flowers

To make life simple, I simply stamped […]

Field Flowers

This is a card I made for the lovely Ann – who in Stampin’ Up! terms, is my great grand-daughter.  She celebrated her birthday last week, but I missed the post and was a tad late posting it, so I hope she’s received it by now.   “ I partially inked the honeycomb embossing folder and inserted the […]

Altered Art

I am so proud of this.  It’s been an age since I made one of my mini books – all altered from plain white gusseted lunch bags!    These books were my  signature creations before I became a SU demonstrator.  I still get orders for bespoke albums occasionally, and this one is my latest creation – an album for a first grandson.   My client’s original […]

More Owl Occasions

Do you ever have days when everything you do or try to create just doesn’t rock your boat?  Well, today was that day when everything I made or attempted to make just didn’t go right.  In the end, I had to abandon ship and I’m using one of the cards I made for the show in […]
