This card involved lots of elements! I was hoping to enter it in the February Lilli of the Valley Monthly Challenge, but I finished it too late... My Mum simply adores gardening, so even though the stamp used is one of the boys from Lilli of the Valley, it always makes me think of her!… Continue reading Mother’s Day card 2014

Fields of Gold
Eeek!! OK didn't leave myself enough time to finish this one - I've got another card in the pipeline that I would love to enter in the 'Name That Tune' monthly competition, but I won't finish it in time! I have created an Easel card using the 'In the Country' stamp from Lili of the… Continue reading Fields of Gold
London Calling Birthday Card
When I got this Penny Black stamp as a freebee from the Cardmaking and Papercraft Magazine I subscribe to I loved it to bits!!! But I think a stamp is for life, not just 2012, so I'm giving it another shot at fame... The base card is a Craft Creations Side Stepper, I inked the… Continue reading London Calling Birthday Card
Folk art thank you card
I got an amazing late Christmas present (it was FAR too heavy to put in the post, which is why it had to wait until we met!) so I wanted to create a thank you card. I started off with a black A6 base card and a piece of black card. I stamped the Waltzingmouse… Continue reading Folk art thank you card
60th Birthday Tag
I won't lie - it was my Step Aunt's 60th about the same time it was my Niece's 10th Birthday, but I was so ill I've only just finished the tag for her present! I was going to make her a card, but as it's now past her birthday, I'll just attach a tag to… Continue reading 60th Birthday Tag
10th Birthday Card
Today is my eldest Niece's birthday, but because I've been ill for the last few days I didn't get her card completed until today! I used a white 6x6 tent-fold card for the base. I cut the green square from some patterned paper I got as a freebee with Cardmaking and Papercraft and attached it… Continue reading 10th Birthday Card
Thank you
Eurgh! I've been very ill this weekend - I must have eaten something that didn't agree with me because I've been sick since Thursday & I'm only just beginning to feel better! My Mum always works incredibly hard over Christmas feeding and entertaining the whole family, and we always SAY thank you, but sometimes it… Continue reading Thank you
30th Birthday Card
Today is a fellow PhD student's 30th birthday!!!!!!! She is having a party tomorrow, but here is the card I've made for her... I used a grey 6x6 card for the card base. I've had the Dovecraft 'Tea Party' paper packs and die-cut glitter decoupage pad for ages - what better excuse for cupcakes than… Continue reading 30th Birthday Card
Christmas card for Granny
I have only made one Christmas card this year - due to moving home to my flat I haven't had the organisation to make cards & do everything else. But because my Granny is so old now, she has very few friends left so her bungalow is not doecorated for Christmas & she has one… Continue reading Christmas card for Granny
Hey there little lady card
After the loss of my step brother I have been restless and found solace in some papercrafting. I wanted to do a papercrafting project that would have nothing to do with him, so no travel or holiday themes and nothing masculine. I have lots of sketches in my ideas book that I scribble in at… Continue reading Hey there little lady card
