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
Distress oxides are my favourite ink to use. I’ve had my distress oxides for a while but I haven’t used them for watercolour before, so I thought I would try them out on my card today. I chose two colours of distress oxide inks - peacock feathers and cracked pistachio, and pressed the ink pads… Continue reading Happy Balloons with Distress Oxide Watercolour
Spring is my favourite season. I look forward to the tree blossom and daffodils, and hopefully some warmer weather! My card today has a spring feel to it, with the sunshine yellows, complimented by a touch of soft grey. I began by stamping some flowers from the MFT Brushstroke Blooms stamp set. I used MFT… Continue reading Spring Brushstroke Blooms
I'm joining in with the MFT sketch challenge today. I'm also combining it with the MFT colour challenge, as the colours worked so well for my card design. I began by cutting a white card panel to be a little smaller than my card base. From that, I die cut an Inside and Out stitched… Continue reading MFT Sketch Challenge 375
I was inspired by a recent video that I saw by Jennifer McGuire, where she used selective die cutting to create a fun top edge to a card. I love to find additional ways to use coordinating dies, so I thought I'd try making my own version with the tiny ninjas. My usual card base… Continue reading Ninja Off the Edge Die Cutting

On the inside piece, I die cut the Wish dienamic in the bottom right corner. I added… Continue reading Wish Rainbow Stack

My card today features one of my favourite stamp sets from last year - Lawn Fawn Out of this World. I’d made some galaxy backgrounds a while back and still have a few left, so began by diecutting a circle of galaxy for my card. I then die cut a larger scalloped circle from white… Continue reading Birthday in Space
