Birthday and Anniversary!
Wow! I haven't done much crafting other than my scrap book for ages and then suddenly lots of important card-worthy events loom up on the horizon!! I must excuse the photography - the flash on my camera has died and so for some reason it seems unable to take good photos, I must get a… Continue reading Birthday and Anniversary!
Thinking of you
My step mother lives in Thailand and sometimes it's hard to stay in touch, so I made her this card to give her something nice to open in the post that isn't a bill & let her know I think of her. I purchased some cascade cards and stamped one section with KaiserCraft's 'Script' in… Continue reading Thinking of you

Ahoy sailor!

Thank you
It was my birthday this week, and with presents come thank you letters! I made this card with a white base card and used the designer paper and decoupage set of Dovecrafts's 'Tea Party' (using less glue than for my niece's card!!). To finish I stamped the sentiment with sepia ink and attached using foam… Continue reading Thank you
Birthday card
One of my nieces is 4 this month, so I made her this card. I hope she likes it! I used a white square basecard. The flower paper is from the Dovecraft set 'Tea Party', that I just can't get enough of at the moment! I ripped the edges with a metal ruler to get… Continue reading Birthday card
