Merci Beaucoup
This is what you call a JUMBO stamp, it’s absolutely wonderful and so totally versatile. I love it when I can look at a stamp and pretty much already see the cards I’m going to make, that’s when I know…

I adore this weeks inspiration at CASE Study from Dawn Woleslagle and couldn’t resist pairing it with the current colour challenge at the Play Date Cafe. It’s easy to see where I was inspired by Dawn’s card! This would have to be…
Just Because it’s Botanicals!
It doesn’t get more CAS than this, and I am totally loving all that ‘white’ space… well it’s actually kinda ‘blue’ space, but you know what I mean. I have had my eye on the Fanatical about Botanical Challenge in…
Happy Thoughts!
This is a card I made for the Scrapbook Boutique Blog. I had so much fun using all these wonderful products! These flowers are totally funky (and not expensive either). Evelyn has such a large range of products online, just go visit her…
Buttons anyone!
So I’ve delayed entering the current Less is More Challenge because I couldn’t decide which way to go with the card, and now with only a few hours until the deadline, I didn’t want to miss out! I have had…
Lotus Splash
Hands up who loves new stamps! I know I do, and guess what arrived in my mailbox last week, this new Hero Arts background stamp, and it is totally awesome!! So of course it came in handy for the Play…
Another Shower!
I’ve been thinking about this weeks Tuesday Trigger – Perty & Flirty… and and in the end decided I would include the background as well as that gorgeous yellow! I have another baby shower this Friday (hope it’s not conatagious) and…
Double the Challenge!
So I’ve had this idea in my mind for a few days and have finally put it ‘to card’! I have combined the current Lily Pad colour challenge (how cute are those Tickled Pink Stamps!) with the Less Is…
Born to fly!
Actually I thought this sentiment was funny… well, when it’s teamed with a bumble bee that is! Another great set of colours this week from The Play Date Cafe team, Eggplant, Fuschia and Orangesicle! I’m going to keep it short…
A Challenge Birthday!
How could I resist this weeks Play Date Cafe Challenge when the colours are called Redish Orange, Yucky Yellow & Juniper! I combined it with this weeks CASE Study Challenge where the muse is still the amazing Jill Foster. Just…
Enjoying Sweet Threads
I decided to join Scrapbook Boutique’s colour challenge, where they always find the most gorgeous cupcake inspirations… I want to know where that shop is! To make the background subtle so I overlayed it with vellum, I’m not sure if…
Just Because!
I can often struggle with a sketch as inspiration, I am definitely a ‘colour’ girl. But I just love this weeks inspiration from Less is More, I just had to join in the fun! Supplies; Paper: A4 White Hopsack Cardstock,…
Wishing you…
One of my work mates is heading for 50, and she’s celebrating with a ‘black & white’ party, so why not make a matching birthday card! I wanted to join CASE Study Challenge this week where the Muse is the amazingly talented…
Flower Garden
I have finally had a chance to play along with Jay Gee’s Nook Challenge. Another gorgeous inspiration photo, with fab colours. I actually found too many choices (nice), but finally settled on this card, which is obviously taken from that cute…
Background Friend
What an amazing mix of colours at Embellish’s Current Challenge, Tina has outdone herself with the Inspiration photo this week, it’s just a massive big WOW! Of course if it needs a background stamp my current favourite choice had to…
I’m Sew Excited!
I’m Sew Excited! I’m joining the Challenge in the Moxie Fab World, really it’s just sew fantastic!! (sorry, couldn’t resist) When I saw these Dress Forms at Scrapmatts I knew they were just perfect for this challenge, then it was just…
XO Smooches
I saw the new Play Date Cafe colour challenge, bright and bold and I was in! I know I’ve used my Paper Smooches stamps… again, but they are just awesome and they stamp like a dream! And… they are fun!…
Just a Note
This week I couldn’t resist the Less is More Challenge, which was to make a One Layer Card – In the Frame! So of course I kept it CAS, but had to add just a ‘bit of bling’! Supplies; …
Friend in Gold!
I decided to play tic-tac-toe with CAS-ual Fridays current challenge. And after just a little indecisiveness this is what I came up with. I wanted to use these fabulous new ‘gold’ pearls that I discovered (ie. bought) at last weeks…
Woohooo!
I nearly didn’t finish this one (again)! I really loved this weeks inspiration from the Play Date Cafe, to me the colours seem very vintagy (not my usual style… maybe that’s why I struggled). I do LOVE my new Paper Smooches stamps…
