It’s a Chick thing!
Have you noticed I’ve been a bit ‘Krafty’ lately? I can’t help myself, I’m addicted… again! As you can probably tell I finally have some more Lawn Fawn stamps (I’ll back off the baby cards for the moment). This is…

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…
Whale of a Birthday!
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…
Sweets & Treats
CAS-ual Fridays is having a Sweets & Treats Challenge, what a fabulous inpiration. I’m totally into paper piecing at the moment, and loving it! I think I forgot about it for a while there…. Anyway the ‘sweet thing’ I went…
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…
Butterfly Dreams!
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…
Welcome Mitchell
This is an order for a new proud grandmother. I stayed with the traditional baby blue colours and kept it pretty using the Lawn Fawn – Plus One stamps. The Less is More Challenge this week invites us to use…
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…
Be Happy!
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…
Lullaby?
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…
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!…
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…
Sweet Neapolitan
For this card I combined the Lawnscaping CAS Challenge with this weeks Tuesday Trigger : Cosmopolitan Neapolitan. I was inspired by the neapolitan colours, of course, and icecream is ‘sweet’ and that’s what it says on my card… there was some logic there…
Plant Smiles!
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…
Congratulations!
I decided to incorporate two challenges in this one blog as the cards are very similar. My first card is for the new CAS-ual Fridays blog challenge where the theme this week is Graduation, hard to believe we are in…
It’s a girl!
Well… at least my giraffe is a girl, you can tell because she is pretty in pink, ‘sweet blush’ to be exact! I needed to make something ‘cute’, and this is what I came up with when I combined a…
Let’s Talk Banners!
How awesome is Lucy’s sketch in the new Lily Pad Cards Challenge! I had a few ideas for this one but decided on simplicity in the end. One of my fab blog friends inspired me with her red phone and…
Polka Dot Frenzy!
Love.Love.Love anything ‘dotty’, so when I saw that the Lawnscaping Challenge was having a Polka Dot Frenzy Challenge, I lept in… spots and all! AND then I made a totally different card… I didn’t like the first one, so now here…
Sweet Birthday!
The Tuesday Trigger this week was Royally Sweet! I couldn’t resist repeating the swirl pattern that was iced onto the cake, it looks sooo yummy! I also sat down to have a ‘nice cuppa tea’ while I made the card. When…
