A scientist's crafty side
I see a theme emerging! Last week I made cards using the MFT fiesta word die, this week I've made some pinata cards! I feel like I should call this post "When Nuvo drops don't behave!". Initially, I created a card using the pinata dies and the largest 'In and Out Stitched Oval STAX' die… Continue reading Pinata card using MFT dies
I won't lie - I'm not sure about alcohol inks yet! I saw a video by Michelle Short of The Card Grotto using stencils with alcohol inks and I thought "Wow! That looks amazing! I want to give it a try!" so I gave it a try and I think maybe, I should leave this… Continue reading Fiesta card using alcohol inks and stencil
I LOVE this stamp set - the images are adorable and the sentiments are soooo punny! I shared this set in a Simon Says Stamp haul video on my YouTube channel from last year that you can see here. This card is for my Step Dad and it's his birthday today. First of all I… Continue reading Birthday card using Art Impressions Old Goat stamp set
It was my birthday last week, to be honest it was a bit overshadowed by passing my viva - it still doesn't feel real and I'm wandering about in a bit of a daze! However, with birthdays come lots of lovely gifts and thank you cards (because everyone likes snail mail that isn't a bill,… Continue reading Birthday thank you cards with SSS flora stamp
Disclaimer: I made this card at the beginning of September 2017, but I'm only blogging about it now! If you follow me on Instagram you would have seen the galaxy background I painted for this card on September 7th, I'm so sorry it's taken me this long to let you know about the finished card!… Continue reading Altenew out of this world card
Disclaimer: I made this card back in November for my oldest step sister, but this is the first chance I've had to blog about it. I was really pushed for time because I was spending almost all of my time writing my Thesis, so this was a really quick make. I used my embossing buddy… Continue reading Step sister’s black and gold birthday card
Disclaimer: I made this card in December (yes, rather obvious given the theme!) but this is the first chance I've had to blog about it because I was writing my Thesis. I made this card for my best friend because I really do feel guilty not giving her a Christmas card because she is my… Continue reading Concord and 9th Christmas card
So I was apparently in such a rush to get to my Mum's house at the weekend that I didn't take a photo of her birthday card, so the only photo I have of it was taken on my phone on her laminate flooring!!! I'm really sorry that the photo quality isn't great! I wanted… Continue reading Mum’s birthday card
Hello! I'm back with a quick bonus mid week post! I'm still trying to get all of my MFT Camp Create cards out of the way (I started them, so I'll finish them!!!) and I only have 2 left - dry embossing and a slider card. As I've finished the dry embossing tonight, I'll share… Continue reading Divine Dry embossing with MFT dies
I have been working on this card for AGES, so I'm glad it's finally finished! I was going to share it for MFT Camp Create Spectacular Shakers, but with one thing and another I didn't get it in for the deadline and then it went right to the bottom of my priority list! I'll share… Continue reading Neon Shaker card
