Now that she is at Grammar School, my eldest niece has become a complete 'tweenager' and her younger sisters are 'so childish' and she is desperate to be seen as a big girl, so I had to make her a birthday card that wasn't 'girly', but more refined/edgy/grown up. All three of my Nieces love… Continue reading Lose yourself to dance

Moo-chas grass-ias!
I've made my Christmas thank-you cards, at last, so I'm going to share them with you. I'm always trying to look for novel thank you card ideas. I learned Spanish for a year at school, but because I was struggling in other subjects I was forced to give it up. So my Spanish has never… Continue reading Moo-chas grass-ias!
Best Friend’s birthday card
Hi all! I just wanted to share the CAS birthday card I made for my best friend. Having a December birthday sucks - everyone always gives her birthday/Christmas combined presents, so I wanted to make her a lovely birthday card to go with her birthday presents to make sure she feels special. I die cut… Continue reading Best Friend’s birthday card
Step-Mother’s birthday card
Today is my Step-Mother's birthday, I posted her card last week so I hope she gets it today (she lives in Thailand, so I always worry that it will get lost in the post or take ages to get there). She loves card making too and she loves to recieve handmade cards so I wanted… Continue reading Step-Mother’s birthday card
Step-Sister’s birthday card
Today is my eldest step-sister's birthday, I'll be going to see her later today, but before I go I'll post her card and present here. I must admit I bought her present in May and started work on this project back in August, but with very little urgency. So it was only right at the… Continue reading Step-Sister’s birthday card
Hey Ghoul-friend!
I saw this greeting in a stamp set somewhere, I couldn't justify getting the stamp set, but I have alphabet stamps, so I wanted to make it with my alphabet stamps. My last blog post hinted that I was stressed and rather unhappy and as a crafter I know that colouring is a really good… Continue reading Hey Ghoul-friend!
Autumnal thank-you
I'm so blessed - I've been working really hard recently and I found it was affecting my mood - I went on Facebook and all my friends were sharing how wonderful their lives were and how they just couldn't be happier. I had been working 11/12 and 13 hour days and been unable to fit… Continue reading Autumnal thank-you
Stylish Birthday Card
Today is my friend's birthday & I've popped his card and present through his door so I can share this with you now. He's always been very image conscious; well groomed and well dressed with shiny shoes. So I felt wishing him a stylish birthday would be a nice twist on the 'happy birthday' sentiment.… Continue reading Stylish Birthday Card
Cousin’s Birthday card
Today is my cousin in Scotlands birthday, I wanted to show you the card I made for her. The second I saw the new Farmer's Market set from Hearfelt Creations I fell in love, so I bought everything in the set. It feels very autumnal this week (I put the central heating back on over… Continue reading Cousin’s Birthday card
Steampunk Birthday card
I love Steampunk, so when I saw the Kanban 'Time Machine' and 'Cameo Clock' toppers I grabbed them up! But then I just kept them and got them out to look at them rather than use them. Until now... My friend is an acomplished seamstress and loves gaming so she makes her own costumes for… Continue reading Steampunk Birthday card
