Today I’m sharing a card that was published with the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine where the call was to mask a space for sentiments. A little different to my usual style, but I really did have fun creating the sentiment panel and the matching embossed border.
Thanks so much for stopping by, I’ll be back with a TAWS video Sunday, looking forward to seeing you then.
Other Supplies: Ranger Embossing Powder – Liquid Platinum. Cotton

I never really did get into the ‘feather’ phase and when the call came from the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine for this as inspiration I initially wrote it off… and while I was waiting for some texture paste to dry, I remembered that I won the Thataway collection from Studio Calico a little while back and it had some die cut feathers, and then I found the stitched thingys and then I just started adding stuff and all of a sudden I’d made a card that I hadn’t intended to do in a style that is very different to my usual, so go figure, I had some fun! Then my texture paste was dry and I was back to the card I had originally started lol.
I suppose it’s good to push those comfort zones a little every now and then. Have a fabulous day!

Gotta say that I fought with this card to the end, but had so much fun that I can’t complain. These Painted Butterflies are one of my most fave sets from Altenew that I couldn’t resist using them for their First Video Challenge…. Also I’m using those frosted sheets yet again….
You can see my video here or Watch it at Youtube.

Another quick publication share for the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine today where the call was to use texture paste, so I made mine kinda bright…
Sorry if you are not seeing me around too much at the moment we are having some fun with friends that are staying (and I’m also working), so trying to squish life in around it. Dinner party at my house tonight eeek, haven’t done this in a while, lots of cooking / baking and maybe a glass of Champagne. Can’t wait!

Not sure that I’ve ever stamped black flowers before, but I am kinda liking the boldness and I decided to try embossing the Delicata gold on the stencil stripes and it seemed to work a treat!

I have a really quick publication share tonight as I’m totally enjoying my holidays and haven’t even had a chance to make any cards yet! I also just got back from a visit to my brother and SIL in Gladstone (only a 8 hour drive away) but it was so nice to see them, we ate way too much they have the best Indian restaurant across the road and to be honest it’s worth the drive lol.
So I thought I would share this publication for The Australian Cardmaking, Stamping and Papercraft magazine where I was asked to use one die… four ways and this is what I came up with using some fab MFT products (my apologies in advance for the photo heavy post).
Hopefully I get some home time now and you might see some new cards, but I pick up my new Scooter tomorrow so I might actually be out with the wind in my hair instead.
Other Supplies: Rubber embossing mat. Sequins. Prismacolor Pencils – Peach, Yellow Ochre. Copics – T0. 0. W2. Y11,13,21,26. R02,05,22. SBB Cardstock – Butter, Grapefruit. Foam Sheet.

I love flowers on a Mother’s Day card, I know it’s predictable but isn’t that okay, especially when they are as stunning as these Magnolias from Altenew! I decided it was time to get out my Inktense pencils again and my colouring was inspired by Marika and if you haven’t visited her before I suggest that you click right HERE she is amazing!
I was lucky enough to have this card published recently in the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine.
I know my post is a few hours early but that’t because I have two more posts going live tomorrow and I didn’t want to bombard you lol. Have a fabulous day everyone, eat lots of chocolate and enjoy time to smell the flowers! Also BIG hugs to you Mum, love you loads (from your favourite… wink) xx

I was so lucky to win some fabulous goodies from Avery Elle and this little fox was the reason that I just ‘had to have’ this stamp set. I know I’m a little behind on the ‘fox’ trend… or could it be that I’m ahead for the next one!
I’m leaving it to the last minute but couldn’t resist playing along with this month’s AEIheartU watercolour challenge and thought I would combine it with Virginia’s View Challenge #14 where it’s time to layer. All I needed was to find some ‘me’ creative time and I gotta say that I just loved making this card. Have a great weekend, Hugs
Other Supplies: Inktense Pencils – Cadmium Orange, Sienna Gold, Neutral Grey.

I haven’t had a chance to make a card for way too long now, it’s been a very social month here and while you are reading this I am off camping at the beach, so fingers crossed the weather is kind. I am definitely having crafty withdrawals, but do have a card to share. It’s a publication for the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine, this vellum is so nice (I accidentally bought the wrong one) it has these fab flecks in it!
See you again soon, with some TAWS goodness, until then I’m hanging out in the sun at the beach. Hugs
