I saw the most stunning card by the wonderful May Sukyong Park, and I just had to have a go at recreating it. I encourage you to take a look at May's blog as she is incredibly talented. I started by prepping a piece of white cardstock with an anti-static powder tool. I stamped some… Continue reading Inspired by Pinterest #6

Blue Floral Background
Creating my own backgrounds for cards is one of my favourite techniques. I find it relaxing to choose some colours and a stamp set, then sit stamping whilst watching something on television. I created this card using the WPlus9 Summer Blooms stamp set and some Altenew inks, stamping the flowers and leaves repeatedly on a… Continue reading Blue Floral Background
Christmas in July Part 2
For my Christmas cards this year, I'm aiming to keep as many of them as I can as one layer cards. I love layers and embellishments but they do add to the bulk when mailing. I found the WPlus9 Folk Art Flurries stamp set on eBay recently for a good price. This set has beautiful… Continue reading Christmas in July Part 2
CAS(E) This Sketch #175

I used pumice stone distress ink. As distress inks aren't really meant for stamping, it gives a much looser watercolour style to the image. I then stamped the… Continue reading CAS(E) This Sketch #175

MFT Stitched Strip Die-Namics
I've been wanting a die or dies to add stitched lines to cards for a while. When MFT released the stitched strip die-namics, it looked like just the thing I was after. This card was fun and easy to make. First, I got a piece of A6 sized watercolour card, and die cut the MFT… Continue reading MFT Stitched Strip Die-Namics
Retro Print Card
I've had an idea for a card design in my head for a while, inspired by the retro prints by Orla Kiely. This months challenge at Seven Hills Crafts is a colour challenge. I chose the third colour palette and finally made the card. One of the leaf stamps from the WPlus9 Doodle Buds stamps… Continue reading Retro Print Card
