A scientist's crafty side
It was my Mum's birthday on Tuesday, but this week has been demanding at work so I'm only able to blog about it now! This card is completely inspired by THESE CARDS that Amy Rsavy created at the beginning of the month, so not my original idea at all. So I don't have the Picket… Continue reading Mum’s birthday card using Prima princess stamp
I made a second Father's Day card that is meant to be from my parent's rescued cat, Vincent. Do you give or receive card from pets?
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
So, yet another disclaimer - I made these cards and filmed the making of the cards back in September of 2017, but I didn't want to blog about them until I had the corresponding YouTube video created as well. Dear me, this video has taken FOREVER to edit!! When I put all the clips together… Continue reading Golden anniversary card using emboss resist technique
This stamp set is from a company that are no longer in production, but there are lots of very similar stamps available, so I'm sure you can reproduce this with alternative supplies! I am sooo ready for Spring, so I wanted to have a rainbow colour scheme (inspired by Laura Bassen because she is ALL… Continue reading Rainbow Hello with Waltzingmouse stamps
Disclaimer: I made these cards in December 2017 when lots of my friends had their PhD vivas, so these cards were made in the wee hours of the night and only one photo seems to exist of them that was taken on my phone and with all the debris strewn all over my desk! I… Continue reading Congratulations cards using Honey Bee dies and stencil
It's time for the disclaimer again! I made this card in November, but I've only just blogged about it now, which is why it's a bit out of sync with the seasons!! I was going INSANE having no lab work and not making cards, just concentrating on writiting, day in, day out so one day… Continue reading Autumnal Thanks card with Lawn Fawn stitiched leaves dies
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
Hi Everyone! Phew! I'm really suffering in this heat! Apparently tomorrow will be cooler though! Even the cats are flopping down and just lying on the floor all the time, so they must be feeling it too! Today I'd like to share my 'Glitzy Glitter' card for the MFT Camp Create 2017. I used the… Continue reading MFT Camp Create Glitzy Glitter
Firstly, Happy Bank Holiday Weekend everyone!! The Bank Holiday couldn't come quickly enough for me - I've been really flagging recently and wanted some solid down time and rest. Secondly, I wanted to share this card with you. I received a belated birthday present from a friend of the family who has moved house recently… Continue reading Thank you card
