Lemon, Chocolate and Pink!!!! The flowers look lilac but they are not IRL!!!. There it is again - my favourite stamp of the moment!! SU! card and sentiment stamped in Chocolate chip SU! ink. Image coloured with Marvy's and PM's. Flowers, ribbon and brads from stash. Pink flowers cut with punch. Paper is SU!

Can't really see the stamped image background in this photo. More of a traditional card but Christmassy still!?

This is my favourite stamp at the moment. Really love it! Have used SU! card, PM's to colour. Ribbon from stash.

Creative Card Crew - All that Sparkles & Spoonfull Christmas

Think this is sparkly enough! I love doing Christmas Cards and have quite a few now! Mirror card is great for creating the sparkly effect. Snowflakes cut on Cricut machine.

Winter Wonderland - gift box, bag or paper

I really loved making this pyramid explosion box. I scoured hundreds of blogs and websites to find the plans and it was really easy! Haven't done it justice in the photo!! I used SU! card, Daisy and Dandelion Christmas papers and SU!/papermania stamps and ink. The ribbon is from stash as are the snowflake stickers and the big snowflake embellie! Hope you like???

Sketch and Stash - birthday card

I used this sketch for a 60th birthday card that I have been asked to do. The name in the top right doesn't show up to well in the photo but is great IRL.

Stamp with Us - Card recipe

Sorry - not a fab picture!!! Anyway, no patterned paper, two stamps and two ribbons.

Birthday book

Helen's birthday book with all her presents in!

Birthday cards

This is the card I made for my son to give to my daughter. I really love the colours and of course the Gorjuss girls are fab images for girls cards!

The inside!

I really love the flower - it was so easy. I used a flower punch and cut 5 or 6 out of different papers and secured with a glam brad!

ABC Challenge/Sketch and Stash

D is for Diecuts - ABC Challenge. I have cut the two central rectangles using the Xcut system. I love these Gorjuss Girls stamps ( my daughter coloured this one for me - not bad!!) Ribbon and Buttons from stash. Sketch for the card is from Sketch and Stash challenge this week.

PTW/Creative Card Crew

I turned the sketch on its side and immediately knew which papers I was going to use - Dovecraft Fantasy! Using cutters I picked one fairy and cut her out for the main image. Mirror board is always a favourite. The sentiment is stamped in SU! ink with Papermania stamps. Embellies from stash.

Mum's birthday wrappings!!!

These two parcels contain my Mum's birthday presents. I really enjoy creating/adapting things and plans for this sort of thing. We had to give them to her early as her and dad are now off on their first cruise and her birthday is while they are away - lucky things!!!!

Papertake weekly sketch and ABC C is for circles

I liked this sketch and enjoyed making a lollipop flower for the front of it. I haven't made many of them - this is a good effort!!!


Yippee - I won the PTW challenge this week!!!

Spoonfull of sugar sketch

I have turned this sketch upside down and made a christmas card using my SU! papers and stamp sets. Hope you like it!

Sugar Bowl Sketch and make (flowers!)

I have used another Gorjuss Girl stamp from Sugar Nellie for this card and sketch and coloured her with PM's. I also used SU! papers and card from the Tea and Crumpets set. Flowers are made from a flower punch, star punch, circle punch and hole punch. I layered them all together and curled the petals of the largest flower punch.

Baby Girl - Congrats Helen and Mark !!!

Just had some great news so out came the crafting stuff! I like doing these cards - they are a bit different!!! Pink of course for baby Emily Olivia. (and a bit of yellow!!!!)

Mojo Monday 100

All of a sudden we have a few weddings to go to!! So I used the latest Mojo Monday sketch to produce this wedding card. Wasn't sure if the grey would work but it has and looks a kind of silvery colour.

Secret Crafter and Sketch and Stash Sketch!

Been away on my hols so crafting has taken a bit of a back seat but I am now hoping to catch up with a few challenges! This one is the first. I have combined the Sketch and Stash Sketch with the Secret Crafter colours of Brown and Turquoise. Used my Cricut for the flowers again - I love the way you can get increasing/decreasing sizes that fit inside each other. Also used a Gorjuss girl stamp coloured with PM's . I'm a bit out of practice but it's not too bad.
