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…
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…
Here’s wishing you a wonderful Christmas & a happy holiday season. I’d just like to take a moment to thank you for all of your kind comments & support on my new blog. I have met so many wonderful & talented…
So I needed a quick Thank You card… and of course there was not one in my stash. I’ve had an idea in my head and was inspired by the CASE Study Challenge (loved Nina’s black & white butterfly) as…
I am a sucker for bright colours, so when I saw the new Play Date Cafe Challenge I knew it was for me! I have also gotta be in the Glitter is Glam Challenge in the Moxie Fab World… loving those…
So it’s time for more challenges & this time the theme seems to be Red & White. So I thought I would stay away from the Xmas theme (I need a change). I just adore this stamp set from PTI…
This is sooo out of my comfort zone that it’s funny! Thanks for the great challenge CASE Study. And a special thanks to the new Muse Nina Brackett. How comes everyone else makes vintage look so easy… everytime I tried to…
This is my entry to the current Ribbon Girl Blog Colour Challenge. I thought this was going to be a lttle more subtle… but the end result never quite turns out like the inital vision. Supplies; Paper: A4 White Cardstock, Xpress It…

Happy Sunday! I’m enjoying a relaxing Sunday off work…. yaaay, looking after my poor husband who is currently suffering manflu… not so yaay. It’s a terrible disease which stops absolutely everything in their lives for at least 3 days. I…
So here are a couple of different versions of the what is essentially the same card. I just had to have this Heros Arts Poppy Background Stamp when I saw what Tami Hartley had done with it at the Hero Arts Blog. …
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…
So here it is… last year I made a birthday card for my brother. I thought I was being very clever & made a single layer stamped, copic coloured image. (A very stressful thing to do… no room for error!). My…
This is my entry for the Play Date Cafe Challenge, I have to say that I saw these colours & thought that this would be a difficult mix and then I thought ‘Toughen up… I’m in!’. I was also wanting…
This is my entry for the current Scrapbook Boutique Challenge. The challenge is to use at least 2 butterlies on a card… this is perfect, I just love butterflies! And just for fun I thought I would keep it nice…
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…
So I had a request to make a wedding card. That was not so unusual until I heard the word Pohutakawa tree… that was when I thought I may be in a little trouble! I found out that it was…
