Video : Storybook Duck!
I know it’s meant to be a goose, but I wanted a duck and cause it’s yellow it’s a duck… now. I had so much fun creating my little ‘old school’ storybook scene and when you want a little simple shading then Prisma’s are my go to choice. You can find this card over at The Alley Way Stamps Blog. And while I’m here you may have already heard that TAWS is sadly closing it’s doors, but that means that you can buy their fun stamps at an incredible 40% discount, so head on over!

Video : Happy Everything for an Uptown Girl!
Playing at Scrapbook Boutique today and these Faber Castell Gelatos have mammoth colour and that’s coming from someone who doesn’t like to get her fingers dirty…. I’m so in the wrong job and so have the wrong hobby lol! I’ve been on the fence for a while about Gelatos, and finally took the plunge, there are so many fun techniques and I can’t wait to try some more (with gloves?)!

Oh I do so love this sweet little elephant, and how cute, framed up in her MFT’s stitched squares. I was lucky enough to have this little cutie published with the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine where the call was to ‘create a scene’…. perfect.

Playing with bright texture paste!
Another quick publication share for the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine today where the call was to use texture paste, so I made mine kinda bright…
Sorry if you are not seeing me around too much at the moment we are having some fun with friends that are staying (and I’m also working), so trying to squish life in around it. Dinner party at my house tonight eeek, haven’t done this in a while, lots of cooking / baking and maybe a glass of Champagne. Can’t wait!

Merci for the Die cut Inlay!
One of my fave techniques for sure and especially with this sweet die, I really like how this card turned out and was lucky to have it published with the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping and Papercraft magazine. You may notice that I’m a little underground at present… we are camping at the beach (sorry for you guys in the snow, I know it’s cruel).
So I’ll see you when I’m back and hopefully not too sunburnt, Hugs

Welcome to patterned paper at Muse!
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!
All of the deets can be found here on the Muse blog…. but here’s how it works:
- Use ANYTHING you want from your stash to create a project inspired by this week’s Muse.
- In your post, explain how you were inspired and link back to the Muse blog.
- Provide supportive comments on at least 3 other member’s submissions.
- Vote for three of your fellow member’s submissions.
Thanks for stopping by,
