I love the Lawn Fawn Winter Alpaca stamp set as the sentiment always makes me smile. I went to a farm park with my nieces recently, and we saw some alpacas. I told them about the sentiment and it made them laugh too, so I thought I would make cards for them featuring the winter… Continue reading Alpaca My Scarf Shaker Cards

Ninja and Starry Sky
It's been a while since I shared a ninja card with you all. This was one of my favourite stamp sets from last year and I still love these little chaps. From a piece of white card, slightly smaller than my card base, I die cut an MFT starry circle. Then I blended on distress… Continue reading Ninja and Starry Sky
Celebrate with Orchids
I have a floral card to share today. I haven't reached for my floral sets much recently, so it was nice to use the Altenew Orchid set again. I only used two layers of the orchid layering set this time - the outline and a detail layer, which I stamped with a pink ink. I… Continue reading Celebrate with Orchids

On the log image, I… Continue reading Colouring Virtuoso – MFT Card Design Superstar 2017 Competition
Big, Bold, and Gold Happy Birthday
I'm sharing another typographic card today, featuring the Concord & 9th Double Cut Alphabet die set. I went for a striking colour combination of black and white with gold for this card, and ended up making several of them. I die cut the letters for 'happy birthday' from the MFT Black and White basics paper… Continue reading Big, Bold, and Gold Happy Birthday

I'm excited that MFT are having another card design superstar competition this year. I didn't get chance to enter last year and really wish I had, so definitely going to have a go this year. Clean and simple is the style I lean towards most, so I started with a card for that category. I… Continue reading Clean and Simple Genius – MFT Card Design 2017 Competition
Upon A Star Glow In The Dark
When I saw the WOW glow in the dark embossing powder, I just had to get some to make cards for my nieces and nephew. This embossing powder is perfect paired with the Lawn Fawn Upon a Star stamp set. I actually made 4 of these cards, and worked on all of them at the… Continue reading Upon A Star Glow In The Dark

There's a definite feeling of autumn in the air. I love the changing seasons and I'm ready for snuggly jumpers and winter boots now! I'm bringing that autumn feel to the blog today, with a card perfect for those fall birthdays. On a piece of card, I blended on inks in autumnal colours. I then… Continue reading Autumn Leaves
