I’m at Scrapbook Boutique today and I have some totally fun retro feel stamps from Waffle Flower called Flower Circles. I kept it real simple and decided to film as I created.
I’ve linked all the products that I used below otherwise head on over and you can shop for them yourself at Scrapbook Boutique, you never know you may just find something else to go in your basket (I always do, lol)!
Back with a quick and easy baby card today for Scrapbook Boutique using one of the cutest baby stamp sets ever! I filmed while I created so you could watch.
Happy Valentines Day everyone! Today I have a publication share (for the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine) using some sweet stamps and dies from Mama Elephant, but what I really like about this card is that I made my own confetti, there is so many different kinds of hearts, pink, acetate, vellum… it was so much fun! I hope your day is fun too!

I’ll be back tomorrow with the start of a new challenge for Mama Elephant & Me, can’t wait to see you then.
Today at Scrapbook Boutique I felt like doing some colouring so out came the Copics and some My Favorite Things goodies and this is the end result. It did need a little something though… and nothing in my stash would ‘match’ that ‘s when I had that total Aha moment and Mama Elephant came to the rescue. I decided to film as I created just in case you wanted to watch.
A BIG Happy Thanksgiving to all my gorgeous friends across the water!
This year I wanted to make a fun Thanksgiving card for my SIL, hugs to you GF and I hope that you have a fab Aussie Thanksgiving! My knowledge about this holiday is very limited so I had to liaise with my Cultural Attache (ie my American/Aussie husband who immigrated with his family at the age of 4 to Australia) and… my other problem was I don’t own any ‘Thanksgiving’ stamp sets, so this is what we came up with.
Run! – DetailRun!
Have a great day and I’ll see you tomorrow with a card /video for Scrapbook Boutique. I look forward to seeing you then.
So so happy to be asked to join in the fun at CASE this Sketch, can you believe this is the 100th Sketch and they are having a party!
This team was an amazing turning point for me creatively, I just couldn’t ‘get’ sketches, for me it was always about the colour and now it’s about both! Although in saying that, I think I had too many ideas for Chrissy’s fabulous sketch and consequently I struggled with this one, you know how it goes… should’ve just stuck it in the first place I put it, not move it around for an hour first and then stick it in the original spot lol.
Sunshine – DetailSunshine
Congrats to you guys, this is one of my all time fave challenges and I know the next 100 sketches will be just as awesome!
What a blast this has been! I have totally saved my favourite technique til last, it is super easy and seriously has the WOW factor in my book.
Thanks so much for sharing with me at Addicted to Die Cutting and I plan on returning shortly with a series of quick Chrissy cards for those of you who are like me and always leave it til the last minute.
Today is time for a new challenge at Mama Elephant & Me, and I was so excited when I received my new stamps that I just had to share it with you.
Tis the Season to Gift! With the holiday season just around the corner. For November’s challenge, let’s start working on those cards & gift tags if you haven’t already! We want to see all sorts of tags!
Stacey Yacula has the most adorable images and the new release at Purple Onion Designs is no disappointment. It really is A Charming Winter, and today I mix it up a little with some other fun stamps and make a CAS one layer(ish) card!
You get to SAVE as well because Michele is offering the entire collection (16 images) and three bonus sentiments for a discounted price of $75 until November 5th. Don’t forget to check them out here!
Not sure if I may have just overdone it a little…. well, I did say that I wanted to use some patterned paper and so I did, a LOT of it lol. I made a real mess creating this and at one point I couldn’t find my baby sheep at all, some hurried cleaning and he was luckily located all happy and ready to sit on the card front.
I can’t wait to see how this inspires you and maybe you can use just a little of your paper stash too!
