Here is my entry for the current Tueday Trigger : Luminos Layers! What a fabulous inspiration from Cath this week. I thought that I would incorporate all those wonderful patterns and colours and the ‘flowing layers’ kinda reminded me of butterflies, so…
I was asked to make a ‘Congrats New Grandma’ card. I wanted it to be pretty and thought the colours from the current Embellish Magazine Patterned Paper Color Trends Challenge would be just perfect! I struggled a little with this…
Another nautical card… obviously it’s a new trend that I missed, again! This time it’s Jay Gee’s Nook Challenge, totally rad inspiration! I chose the whale (see the stuffed toy in the top right hand corner), I’ve had this stamp for a little…
I have very limited options on the ‘nautical’ front, so decided to paper piece a boat. I took my inpsiration from one very talented lady, Jenny at Crafting in the Country, where I was inspired by this card! This is my entry for…
I want ot share with you one of my recent publications in the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine. This is one of my favourite colour combinations and I have shares in Bazzill papers – Dragonfly and Swimming Pool and my Copic…
I thought the colours of this weeks Play Date Cafe Challenge definitely leant toward a masculine card. So I had a look through my stamps and this is what I came up with. Hope you like it! Supplies; Paper: A4…
I kinda took a different approach to this weeks Tuesday Trigger: Lovely as a Lullaby. There really is no lullaby, but I think it’s lovely anyway. I was inspired by the colour combination, polkadots & stripes. I’ve been watching all…
This is a card I forgot to share that was published in this month’s edition of Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft. Doncha just LoVe these colours together!! This is my first effort stamping directly onto felt, so why not use PTI’s fab…
I couldn’t let the week go by and not join in the fun at CAS-ual Friday!! This week it’s a sketch… they sure love to ‘mix-it-up’! Well I’m up for it, and if you want to join in, you can find…
Today I thought I’d have a bit of fun with ink… and I definitely got it everywhere! I am now walking around with green fingertips… but it could be worse, I could have glitter all over my face… actually, I…
I would like to firstly wish Sarah all the very best in her new adventure, she has been part of such a wonderful design team, it will be sad to her go. I usually do love the colour splash challenges at The…
So I finally cut into a piece of paper that I have been ‘hoarding’ for a little while now…. how are those luscous bright chevron stripes, I nearly cried, but then I can now enjoy the card, and of course… I…
So I went to my very first Copic class the other day, and now I feel the need to top up on a few more colours (have you seen all the new ones)… but so far I’m resisting! I am trying…
Can I tell you something funny? The other day I was sitting at my desk making cards (yes, I know that’s hard to believe!) and my husband was sitting talking to me and says with a most serious face “haven’t…
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 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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
