Heaps of fun today, actually making a quick card using all those fab inks that I was telling you about in my previous Back to Basics video. And just in case you are missing me I’m up in sunny Cairns celebrating a friend’s 50th… so Cheers!
Are you ready for Christmas or are you starting to panic, don’t stress cause I have a card that is sooooo simple and you can make multiples in flash. Now, tell me does it get any easier than this? To be honest I felt like I was channeling my inner Ardyth, thanks for the inspiration!
I can’t wait to see how this inspires you!

Well I’m back again and this time I’ve been playing with some fabulous Hero Arts stuff. I have combined the challenge from A Blog Named Hero – to Just make your own embellishment with Hero Arts Hello Spring March challenge. This card really makes me happy, I love these colours together!
Well Hello! Today I’ve made a card and combined two amazing challenges together for inspiration. Initially when I saw the photo at TAWS Be Inspired Challenge I put it in the too hard basket and then out of nowhere Runway Inspired Challenge brings out the most amazing green and black graphic dress and an idea sprung. And you know you just gotta go with it, not another card will be made until this one gets out of your head lol.
I made these sweet little flowers following a fab tutorial by jewelloveit at youtube HERE.
Congrats – DetailCongrats
Does anybody really pose like this for a photo, it’s so chic, I know if I did it I’d look stupid.

Other Supplies: Felt – Apple Green. Small Flower Punches – Tonic. Sizzix – Decorative Label Set #4
Well why not, I had the camera set up anyway so thought I would film myself making my craft dash card. Nothing fancy schmancy, but it does make a real difference when the clock is on, the pressure is on lol. Anyhoo, no editing and my total time was 9 mins 50 secs. Not bad, considering some cards take me days to make. I hope you are having a great day, it’s STILL raining here, I’ve forgotten what colour the sky is, maybe I’d better look it up on Wiki.
Yippeeee, it’s time for another hop & release at AnnaBelle Stamps and if you are hopping along you should have arrived here from Sue K’s fantastic blog!
This month we have a sneak peek at a gorgeous new stamp set called ‘Standing Tall’ and AnnaBelle Stamps is releasing two new sets of co-ordinating digital papers called Artichoke & Cherry! Today I used some of these classic papers to create a little gift card set, it’s so handy to have one of these ready to give away….. especially this time of year.

It’s Friday and this week we have an AnnaBelle Bling Sketch Challenge (ABSC#050). Me and sketches are only just learning how to play nice, and I totally love that about a challenge…
Oh, the unpredictability of spray mists… it’s so difficult for me… but how absolutely fabulous do they look, and I was thinking, wouldn’t it be nice to be able to see them through the acetate… and I really like how it turned out! I’ve made this card for the Spatter Technique Challenge in the Moxie Fab World, where there are already some of the most amazing creations in the gallery!
You can find the links in my sidebar for the other Belles, so why not visit them and see what their take on this sketch is. Also this week Jess has a Topical Tuesday tutorial showing how to make an awesome Post-it Note Holder!
Now it’s your turn, I would love to see what you can make of this fun design!
