When the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine asked if I wanted to be part of a Stamper’s Challenge that involved me playing with Altenew’s Painted Butterflies I couldn’t reply ‘Yes’ quick enough lol. And I wasn’t disappointed, I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed getting all inky with these stamps, they are Brilliant!

Keeping it real simple for this month’s entry to Avery Elle’s Embossing challenge, in fact it’s just a little difficult to see the embossed part of my card, but it’s those fabulous double pierced rectangles that I can’t get enough of and I used one of these to create a subtle border for my scene.

I absolutely do not know where this card came from… initially it was something about the shape of the cupcake and the gnome hat and then I think the colours came in and somehow the ‘dig it’ theme… and don’t even ask about why a vege garden lol.

My first play with some Reverse Confetti products and they are sooo much fun. I was asked to create two cards for the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine for their Stamper’s Challenge and here is what I came up with. My fave would of course have to be the pink and orange card… definitely one of my ‘go to’ colour combo’s at the moment.

Phew, made the AEIOU Sparkle challenge by a whisker…. so fun to finally get a minute to make a card for the sake of it, no visitors this weekend and lots of crafty time, I’m having a blast!
Hello Darling – DetailHello Darling
Not the easiest card to photograph, but I hope you get the general idea. Have a great week!
Today I’m sharing a card that was published with the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine where the call was to mask a space for sentiments. A little different to my usual style, but I really did have fun creating the sentiment panel and the matching embossed border.
Happy Day – DetailHappy Day
Thanks so much for stopping by, I’ll be back with a TAWS video Sunday, looking forward to seeing you then.
Other Supplies: Ranger Embossing Powder – Liquid Platinum. Cotton
I never really did get into the ‘feather’ phase and when the call came from the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine for this as inspiration I initially wrote it off… and while I was waiting for some texture paste to dry, I remembered that I won the Thataway collection from Studio Calico a little while back and it had some die cut feathers, and then I found the stitched thingys and then I just started adding stuff and all of a sudden I’d made a card that I hadn’t intended to do in a style that is very different to my usual, so go figure, I had some fun! Then my texture paste was dry and I was back to the card I had originally started lol.
Missing You – DetailMissing You
I suppose it’s good to push those comfort zones a little every now and then. Have a fabulous day!
Gotta say that I fought with this card to the end, but had so much fun that I can’t complain. These Painted Butterflies are one of my most fave sets from Altenew that I couldn’t resist using them for their First Video Challenge…. Also I’m using those frosted sheets yet again….
I’ll be back tomorrow with another video! I’m in the middle of 4 days off and have more friends visiting so please excuse my lack of blog visits, Hugs,

I just wanted to mention that this card was inspired by this funky card design by Quyen right HERE, thanks so much! From here you are heading to the Scrapbook Boutique Blog, thanks for joining us, it’s been heaps of fun!
I had sooo much fun using my Penny Black stamps and dies to create this card for the PageMaps July card sketch. I tried to keep true to the sketch as I haven’t had much time lately to join challenges and just create for fun, so this was a blast!
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…
Smile – DetailSmile
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!
A quick publication share today for the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine. The call was to use kraft so I kept it simple with a masked background and added this cute little fella from AI.
Woohoo – DetailWoohoo
Hope you have some great plans for the weekend, mine mostly consist of working, but at least my nights are finished again for the moment (It’s so nice to be in the daylight hours again). So whatever you are doing, have some fun! Hugs,

Does watercolour get any easier than this? I think not, these Distress Markers are such an easy way to add colour… and I’m so trying not to ‘need’ every colour, really I am lol.
I created this card for the current Rainbow Challenge at Avery Elle…. Have you seen their new release, there are some real ‘have to haves’…. but didn’t I say I’m trying to be good? (wink)!

Not sure that I’ve ever stamped black flowers before, but I am kinda liking the boldness and I decided to try embossing the Delicata gold on the stencil stripes and it seemed to work a treat!

Oops, I forgot to share this one… I was meant to be doing soooo many other things but I couldn’t help myself and before I knew it I had created this card, it was one of those that I couldn’t get out of my head until it was made.
Loving the smooshing but I also thought it would be fun to blend up different Copic colours and I really like the rainbow effect, perfect for this kid’s card. Also did you notice…. I used a ‘googly’ eye, yayyy, only 462 to go lol.

I was asked to join in the Stamper’s Challenge at the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine using this sweet Hanging Out set from Newtons Nook. I jumped at the chance because I hadn’t tried their stamps and I have seen some wonderful creations around blogland.

I have a really quick publication share tonight as I’m totally enjoying my holidays and haven’t even had a chance to make any cards yet! I also just got back from a visit to my brother and SIL in Gladstone (only a 8 hour drive away) but it was so nice to see them, we ate way too much they have the best Indian restaurant across the road and to be honest it’s worth the drive lol.
So I thought I would share this publication for The Australian Cardmaking, Stamping and Papercraft magazine where I was asked to use one die… four ways and this is what I came up with using some fab MFT products (my apologies in advance for the photo heavy post).
