Paisley card
It's a friend's birthday next week & he is a HUGE fan of Oasis, Beady Eye, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds and PRETTY GREEN. He has lots of T-shirts with a bit of paisley pattern on them (paisley features quite heavily in the Pretty Green design theme), so I decided I just HAD to make… Continue reading Paisley card
Mini card – Autumn thinking of you
Hi everyone!! I've been seeing lots of mini cards on other people's blogs - for some cute Halloween ideas see Elizabeth Allan's blog. I was waiting for a friend to pop over for a cup of tea and some cake, so I wanted a quick make that wouldn't involve getting out loads of materials that… Continue reading Mini card – Autumn thinking of you
Paper Anniversary

He plays guitar in a female-fronted hard rock band when he isn't being an engineer and she is a craft-aholic in her spare time (just… Continue reading Paper Anniversary

That's where my inspiration came from - I… Continue reading Trees color trends challenge

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
