Today I’m sharing a geometric design with simple stamping. I love designs that are quick and easy to recreate if you need a card in a hurry. For this technique, you need either a circle stencil or a set of circle dies in various sizes to make your own stencil. I blended on different sized… Continue reading Florals and Circles
I love stamp sets with little images as you can create great scenes and fit so many more critters onto a card when they are smaller. They also take no time at all to colour! So, I was very excited to see the wonderful Farmyard Little Bits set in the May release from Hello Bluebird.… Continue reading Hello Bluebird Farmyard Little Bits
The Jungle Littles set from Hello Bluebird has to be one of the cutest around! I love the size of the images as they are perfect for creating a scene, along with the other elements within the set.

I began by blending some abandoned… Continue reading Spellbinders Guest Designer – Friends of a Feather

The Lawn Fawn Monster Mash stamp set is definitely not just for Halloween. It's got some great sentiments and would… Continue reading Monster Mash Box Card
Today I have a fun ninja card to share. I started by working on the background. I die cut a stitched mod rectangle, then die cut three stitched peekaboo star windows from the rectangle. This die leaves a nice stitched outline on the negative space. I blended colour on to each star, then adhered the… Continue reading Ninja Stars
I shared a photo the other day on instagram of a dragon from the Mama Elephant Me and My Dragon stamp set, which I’d coloured to be a galaxy dragon. I used Faber Castell polychromos pencils to do this. I’ve done plenty of distress ink galaxy backgrounds before, but never tried using colouring pencils so… Continue reading Me and My Galaxy Dragon
