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.

I die cut… Continue reading Best Friend’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.

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!

Cousin’s Birthday card

Today is my cousin in Scotlands birthday, I wanted to show you the card I made for her.

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

Mum’s Birthday Card and present

Friday will be my mother's birthday and she isn't very 'computer savvy' so I feel safe posting this before her birthday. I stamped the IndigoBlu 'Sunflower' stamp on Neenah card with VersaFine 'Vintage Sepia' ink. I coloured it in with Spectrum Noir GB1, GB3, Ct1, CT4, TN8, EB4, EB6, JG1 and JG5. Using my Perfect… Continue reading Mum’s Birthday Card and present

A few people are meeting at… Continue reading Moving to Canada card

Grandmother’s 95th Birthday card

On Sunday it will be my Granny's 95th birthday, the card is in the post, so I thought I would share it with you. I'm afraid this post is a bit picture heavy due to all the different flowers I made for the card - sorry! I really wanted to try out a cascade card… Continue reading Grandmother’s 95th Birthday card
