I'm really proud of this card, it turned out exactly as I'd hoped! This is the first of my #SophiasSlimlineSeptemberSeries cards. I stamped several of the dolphins from the Mama Elephant 'Marine Friends' in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured them using my Spectrum Noir alcohol pens. I picked two and die cut them out,… Continue reading Slimline underwater scene card featuring Mama Elephant ‘Marine Friends’ stamp set
The second I saw this die set I HAD to have it, I immediately had this card idea in my head!

I stamped the flamingo with Memento Tuxedo… Continue reading Flock Yeah birthday card using Wplus9 stamps

On a separate… Continue reading Dream big card using Hero Arts stamps

I'll share… Continue reading Neon Shaker card

Happy Mothering Sunday to all the Mothers in the world! My Mum loves Boston Terriers, and if she wasn't caring for my aged Birman cat I think she would have a little pack of rescue Bostons. As Mothering Sunday is all about Mums I wanted to create a card that would make her smile, and… Continue reading Mothering Sunday 2017
My best friend is having an afternoon tea for her birthday celebrations this year (so many friends are scattered about and some have small children so an afternoon thing means she can see as many friends as possible and they can all get wee people home in time for bed and no need for baby… Continue reading Best friend’s birthday card
