Mother’s Day

I would just like to share the card I made for my mother this year.  I couldn’t post it any earlier as she is one of my biggest fans, as I am one of hers!  She is the most amazing…

It’s a boy!

I’ve been thinking about ’tissue paper’ for a while now…   well at least since Moxie Fab put out a new challenge.  It’s called the Tissue Paper Magic Challenge in the Moxie Fab World!   I was  wondering what I could do &…

Bring on the happy!

Here is another A5 card (you know those ones that feel as though they are a 12″ layout to fill).  This is a retirement card for one of my husbands work colleagues, so I thought that the sentiment fit perfectly. …

In my thoughts

I have been struggling a little with ‘finishing’ a card at the moment.  I have these grandiose ideas & get half way through…   then stop.  What’s that word again?  That’s right it’s mojo.  And what better way to get back…

On your Shower

I am sooo excited my Lawn Fawn stamps finally arrived! (thank you long week-end)   What perfect timing, I am going to a baby shower tomorrow… so they have already seen ink!  I was inspired by the Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger &  there…

Make a Penny Black wish!

  I saw the current challenge at Lily Pad Cards and couldn’t resist joining in Lucy’s Lovely Lines, I just love her style!  I thought I would use this cute little image who has adorned my cards more than a few…

CSC36 – Enjoy the Ride!

  It’s raining here today on our Easter Monday Tuesday (I know it’s confusing but in Australia this year our Public holidays clashed and added up to a 5 day weekend… it’s a long story).  Anyway I was hoping to get…

Teapot Dots!

   I was sooo excited when I saw the current colour challenge  at The Play Date Cafe I just think these colours go so well together.   Here are my polka dot tea pots in their bright colours, now all I want to do is find this set somewhere…

Using up scraps…

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…

An Easter Card for… Easter!

So guess who doesn’t own any Easter stamps?  It’s funny that I didn’t  realise this until I started making an easter card for the current Scrapbook Boutique and Copic Oz  challenges.  Anyway I made do with what I have and enjoyed a little paper…

Calling all Critters!

   I’m soooo excited, I have my first set of Lawn Fawn stamps on the way to my door!  But I couldn’t wait til they came to join the current Lawnscaping Challenge – Calling all Critters.  The inspiration cards were…

Best Wishes

Here is another birthday card for my stash.  I wanted to make something pretty, no offense to the masculine cards or the CAS, but I needed some glitter & butterflies.  I am still working with the vintage look & to…

CSC35 – Happy Mother’s Day

So I’ve been struggling with this card for a couple of days… you know,  look at it, shuffle papers around, stamp a bit, get all my ribbons out… then put them back!  I was determined to do the pretty / busy…

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…

Pink Petals

The vision of my card kinda changed along the way…   I like to think of it as evolving (I’m sure you know what I mean).   So this is my take on the current Card Positioning Systems Sketch.    CPS #213  Thanks…

Did you miss me?

I’ve been on holidays & WOW was it some fun!  But now I am back & boy do I have some wonderful blogs to catch up on.  I will be sharing some fabulous photos of my trip to Outback Australia after my post……

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…

Mother’s Day Rose

Isn’t this paper just wonderful – I just can’t seem to get enough of October Afternoon.   I was going for an old fashioned look with a modern twist, not sure if I got there, but I really like how it…

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…

Another post already!

edited 27th April  **** I would just like to add that this card was one of the top picks for the Totally Hues Challenge… WOOHOO!  Thanks heaps Heather **** Maybe I should just be on holidays all of the time! …
