Penny Black Thanks

This is a Thank You card for a 10 year old girl,  so of course it needed some pinkness & prettiness.    This is entered in the current   Clean & Simple Fall to Layout 111.   I just love this sketch, the…

Growing up is Optional!

So this will be just a quick post to enter this card into this weeks challenge at Sassy Studio Designs, Dare to be Sassy #41.  It’s breast cancer awareness month & the colour is pink… so why not make it…

Bingo!

It’s time for another challenge… what else is there to do when it is pouring down outside.  So this is my entry for the Color Throwdown #113.  This is a great mix of colours  (I did not have the exact colours so I…

Happy Thanksgiving – in Australia?

This is my first ever Thanksgiving card and it’s heading off with the Halloween cards towards the US.  I used the colour inspiration from the Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger.  You may notice that I got a little carried away with the…

Have a Spooktacular Halloween from Oz

Halloween is not really celebrated in Australia, although there are some hopeful enthusiastic children who trudge around with massive shopping bags on October 31st just in case…  So when I had to make some  halloween cards to send to the…

With Love…

Scrapbook Boutique are having another challenge & I couldn’t resist –  with such yummy colours.  Initially I thought I would make a baby card, but it sort of changed along the way, as it always does.  Hope you like it. …

Pawprints on your Heart

  I have been meaning to make some pet sympathy cards for a while now,  I think they are a great idea and they are hard to find.  Of course I didn’t make them until today when I needed one…

Sweetheart Flower

So I wasn’t particularly happy with my entry to the Scrapbook Boutique Colour Challenge.  I thought I could do better.  This is my second attempt.  Not quite so pastelly (not sure if there is such a word),  I think it’s…

Cupcake Bouquet challenge

Well it’s time for another Scrapbook Boutique Challenge  (for the aussie papercrafters).  It is a great online shop and their blog is packed full of information.  This challenge is colours, and I thought these would be easy…  I just don’t think…

Curly Flowers

So here is another challenge that I have been having some fun with.  It’s the current Caardvarks challenge which is Clean & Simple with stamping…  I made a couple of matching thank you cards, so I thought I would share both…
