Mother’s Day card 2014
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
Get better soon
My Grandmother has fallen over & fractured her femur. It was pinned back together and now she is undergoing physiotherapy and rehabilitation. Because of her advanced age, she has very few friends, so she won't get many cards, so every little helps & I know she will enjoy getting a card. I started out with… Continue reading Get better soon
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

Moulin Rouge Birthday Card!
Today is a colleague's birthday and he was asked what he wanted to do for his birthday & he (like most men) said "dunno"... For whatever reason he was watching the Moulin Rouge 'Lady Marmalade' cover version & he said "I'd love it if I could have a party where all the girls dressed like… Continue reading Moulin Rouge Birthday Card!
Sorry seems to be the hardest word…
... but once you have said it, you feel so much better! My good friends C & L were married on 6th July, but I only got their invite in June and unfortunately it was just before my Step Brother's body was found so my mind was elsewhere. His funeral was on 2nd July so… Continue reading Sorry seems to be the hardest word…
