Happy 18th


I bought some new water colour paints, the set has the most beautiful purple colour, which you can see on my card, I thought blue would look great with it. I think it looks like a tie dye effect.
I shall be painting more die cuts with my new paint!

Mrs & Mrs



I love the colours in this card, I'm also quite pleased with the shadow effect on the die cut I made.
The backing paper is embossed with 'that folder'. I've used the beautiful red paper flowers again.

Ruby wedding anniversary



I love these red paper flowers, not handmade, purchased from my local craft store. The large heart with numbers cut out of the middle is available from my Etsy shop, there's 50th and 25th too.
The little wine glasses are from a Christmas decoupage paper from Craft Creations.

Springtime flowers


Another beautiful print from Craft Creations UK, die cut decoupage.  I love this little bear, so cute.
The backing strip and butterfly are sparkly glitter card.

With love at Christmas



What a lovely view! I just love the prints from Craft Creations. This is another die cut decoupage print, so quick and easy to make. I think my digi stamp looks cute sitting at the window.

With love from Scotland



I love tartan, I love snowy scenes, I wish I lived in this house <3
I just received my goodies from Craft Creations UK, I bought lots of tartan paper, and some die cut decoupage sheets. That is a great invention, I used to make 3d decoupage cards 15years ago, all hand cut, took ages! I love this pop out kind :)
The digi stamp was made by my husband, I think it's bonnie!

I think this box card is pretty cool. I'm not a fan of making box cards, too fiddly for me inserting those strips inside. But I like this one a lot. I used a free svg cut file to make the box, so that made things easier. I only added two stamps coming out the box, as I didn't want it to be too busy. I love being able to change the colours of the digi stamps, thanks to a video I found on Youtube that showed me how. 
If you don't know already, box cards fold flat for posting. 



I made 3 different types of age stamps, cute ones with hearts. Fancy ones and fun ones. I hope you like them :)















Ok, you are seeing a theme here, YES I love making easel cards, especially round ones!
I made a digi stamp for twins too :)





I've made a bunch of relatives stamps, I know a lot of people find it hard to do mens cards, this stamp makes it easy!
As soon as I spotted that backing paper in my stash, I had to use it, now the card looks like it's for the golfing Grandpa :)



I wanted a new stamp for my Christmas cards this year,  but there's not much out there for Australian themed cards, so I made my own. It's a digi stamp, it can be resized and you can change the colour to suit your theme.  As you can see, I enlarged the stamp to use it as the main picture on this card, but you can make it small and use it as a sentiment in the corner of a card too.

I made another one with a heart in the middle of Australia


I thought I would do one for New Zealand, I think it's cute :)
