Penny Farthing – Enjoy the Ride!

Happy Happy Birthday!
Can you believe that I have hardly any birthday cards left in my stash! I need to work on this so I decided to play with some more challenges for inspiration. I’m struggling through night duty at the moment and…

Embellish the challenge!
So I have a thousand things I should be doing but instead sat down and made a card for the current Embellish Blogs Color Trends Challenge with Music…. I couldn’t resist. I feel like I just grabbed for so many…
40!
Okay so the computer crisis is officially over & I’m sad to say that after 5 years my trusty laptop has gone to a better place! Of course this has made room for my new Rolls Royce, sporting lots of fancy abilities…
Birthday Cycle!
I feel like it’s all boy cards at the moment, not so much of the pretty bling & glitter. But it’s my fab nephew’s birthday soon & I thought I would ink up my new Practicing Creativity stamps & what…
It’s the Cattitude!
I am in the middle of a computer crisis… being that it just up and died! So it’s a trip to the doctor for my trusty laptop & now I’m working with a 9″ screen (much better than nothing at…
Snappy Birthday!
I have a wonderful little godson who is about to have a birthday, so I thought I would use the colours from this weeks Play Date Cafe Challenge with the Paper Piecing Challenge in the Moxie Fab World to create a…
Congrats!
I saw Jay Gees latest challenge & knew that I had to be in it, despite the fact that I’m off to work shortly… a little pressure is good isn’t it! Sometimes it can take me days to finish a…
‘Combined Grind’
How could I resist the ‘Combined Grind’ of my two favourite challenge sites! Love those colours from the Play Date Cafe & the beautiful card from the CASE Study Muse Eva Dobilas for CSC27. Thanks again for helping us push those…

Thinking of You CSC26
I couldn’t help myself when I saw the new ‘Curio’ paper pad from Basic Grey. It is beautiful! I just love that vintage look but it is not a style of card that comes easy to me. When I saw the…
Happy Loco 18th
So one of my wonderful nephews is turning 18. I’m sure I am not old enough to have nephews who are driving cars! So what better place to get an idea for a masculine card than at the Clean & Simple…

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…
For You…
Here is another card for one of our staff who is leaving to work in another department. I have used the Card Positioning Systems Sketch #199 which I thought looked like fun when I saw it, but I have to…
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…
