I'm joining in with the MFT Sketch challenge with this fun hippo card. I began by applying MFT ink to a white card base, then adding a piece of patterned paper to the bottom edge, cut with a scalloped edge border die. For the top part of the card, I die cut a speech bubble… Continue reading MFT Sketch Challenge 342

The More Candles, The Bigger The Wish!
Happy Tuesday! Today I'm sharing a card featuring in-laid die cutting. This is one of my favourite techniques for adding depth to a card. I'm using the MFT Birthday Candles dienamics for my card today. I cut a rectangle of card to be slightly smaller than my card base, and then I die cut the… Continue reading The More Candles, The Bigger The Wish!
MFT Colour Challenge 73
I love the latest MFT challenge colours - coral and teal is such a pretty combination. I already had an idea for a card, so I thought the colours would be perfect for it. I got the DCVW Glitzy Glitter papers recently and they are so gorgeous, the fine glitter is so much nicer than… Continue reading MFT Colour Challenge 73
Rainbow Baby Box Card
Hello, I have another box card to share today. I began this new baby box card by creating the pieces to go inside it. I die cut two MFT Stitched Rainbows, as I wanted a rainbow on both sides. As I needed a smaller rainbow to fit within the box card, I only used the… Continue reading Rainbow Baby Box Card

I started by heat embossing some leaves from the Altenew Hello Sunshine stamp set with gold embossing powder. I added a sentiment from the Altenew Celebrate stamp set… Continue reading Watercolour Roses

I used some Lawn Fawn card stock for the yellow, die cutting it with the largest rounded stitched rectangle in the set. I cut the middle piece from black card… Continue reading Minions

Today I'm sharing some jelly bean birthday cards. I just love their funny faces! I used the companion shaker die set with the Lawn Fawn How You Bean? stamp set to make some shaker cards. I've been making multiples of my cards recently as, once everything is out, it doesn't take much more time to… Continue reading Shake those Jelly Beans!
Birthday Party Animals
I have a riot of colour to share with you all today, with a child's 2nd birthday card. I love the MFT Big Balloon stencil for creating a background. By stencilling colour over each other, you can quickly cover a card with fun balloons. I added some distress detail with water too. I chose three… Continue reading Birthday Party Animals
