MFT Superstar Card Design Challenge 2016!

~ lostinpaper ~ 30 Comments

Well, I just got home from a family holiday celebrating my brother’s birthday and have been on an island and ‘tech-free’ for what seems like forever.  I had the most fabulous time and after two days home I have only just finished all the washing…  and now I’m back at work and on night duty…  But not before noticing that MFT were having another Card Design Superstar Contest and that was it, I just had to make at least one card to celebrate their wonderfulness.

~ lostinpaper ~ 24 Comments

What is it about masculine cards, and why am I always running out?   So for today’s video it is time again for another card in my ‘Cards 4 Men – Images’ series.  And one technique that I like, particularly on men’s cards, is to use multiple sentiments.  You can watch my video below to see what I mean…

It’s time for Cat-titude!

~ lostinpaper ~ 27 Comments

When the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine asked if I would like to participate in a Stamper’s Challenge using the MFT’s Cat-itude stamp and matching die set I jumped at the opportunity.

What a FUN set of stamps and they are all about cats which are one of my fave animals, and these ones definitely have Cat-itude!  I was even lucky enough to have this one published as a cover.

~ lostinpaper ~ 21 Comments

I decided to stretch this fabulous die from MFT to see what I can do.  I adore those die cut words that sit up on the edge of a panel (although I own none) and thought this would be a great die to try that technique out.  I have a couple more videos lined up to share but today it’s all about the ‘Pink Polkas’!
