I embraced the current Embellish Magazine Crochet Trim Color Trends Challenge, that is, I drove down the street to buy some crochet trim only to come home and change my mind to use the one that I already had… work…
A Sympathetic Mother’s Day?
So I sat down to make some Mother’s Day cards and I don’t know where I went wrong… but I ended up with a Sympathy Card. And although I like it maybe I shouldn’t send it instead of a Mother’s…
Thank You
I love this ‘Delightful Dahlia”, Dawn McVey is just awesome! And the nicest person ‘in real life’ – I was very lucky to meet her when she visited Australia last year. I just wanted to share this card that I made…
A Krafty Birthday!
So I know I am having a problem at the moment keeping Kraft cardstock away from my cards… but I just love it! It’s probably because I don’t have to think, it just goes with everything. So here it is…

Get Well Soon
I always delay making male cards for as long as possible – but when I think about it they are quite simple. Maybe it’s the lack of glitter, butterflies, flowers, bows… the things that find their way onto most of…
Simple Flower
So I am back for the last Caardvarks Challenge – to make a monochromatic card (couldn’t resist). So I used some inspiration from the current Clean & Simple Layout. It’s a good place to go when the mojo is low, the FTL…

So I’ve been making a birthday card for a friend’s son, and the theme was cricket…. If I get stuck for an idea I usually go cruise around splitcoast stampers where there is masses of inspiration. I could not find one…
Glitterball Girl!
I thought I would just share a card that I have made for a wonderful friend of mine who is turning 40 (don’t look yet Jack!). She just loves a ‘bit of Bling!’, and what could be more ‘blingful’ than…

A Pink Seal?
This is my entry for the current CASE Study Challenge #13. I thought I would add a little animal act to the challenge although… I don’t think seals are usually bright pink! I just love Heather Pulvirenti’s cards and it great…
