Fathers Day

I have made a card for my dad on Fathers day which is on Sunday using all new stash!The stamp is called Pride and Joy and is by Lily of The Valley, the papers are Hampstead by Papermania (well done Sarah for noticing I'd used the wrong name for the papers!), the tag die is from sizzix and the gromlets are from making memories.

I was so excited to get my first order from my Blog, I was emailed and asked if I could do something similar to this card for a 1st birthday, wow I never expected someone to buy one of my cards after seeing them on here!


I have a whole weekend to myself as my other half is on a stag weekend so I am going to craft all weekend, cant wait!


Thanks for looking

Something Special...

My Niece Georgina was Christened on Sunday and me and my Boyfriend were God Parents to her. I bought her a silver clock in the shape of a teddy bear but also wanted to make something special for her to keep so when I came across the new Papermania chipboard albums I couldn't resist making her a scrapbook.

Luckily her parents had just had some pictures of her taken by a photographer so I used those.

I used MME Pretty Please papers throughout and have only shown small pictures as it would take up too much room on here. I loved making it so much I bought another one to do, just need someone to do it for now!

My SIL loved it and I hope its kept and looked back on with fond memories. The Christening was lovely and Georgina looked so cute in her dress, I'm so proud to be her Auntie!

Off to play with my new Lily Of The Valley Stamps that arrived this week!

Penny Black Happy Birthday

The theme at Penny Black Saturday Challenge this week was Lots Of Dots. I have made this card with DCVW papers (the dotty paper is under the ribbon!) and a computer generated sentiment.

I love the big bow on it, its unusual for a card of mine not to be covered in flowers!

Thanks for looking and have a happy bank holiday weekend all in the UK! x

Have a Happy Day

Hi everyone!
In total contrast to my last card I have made a tiny 4x4 note card.

The image is from the Dovecraft Pepper and Friends range and the sentiment is from Claire Curds range at Docrafts. The papers are from K&Co (Amy Butler Belle) and the card is DCVW.

I'm entering it into this weeks Colour Create Challenge which is green and aqua and this weeks One Stop Craft Challenge which is summer breeze

Thanks for looking. x

Enjoy!

Using a sketch from Friday Sketchers I have made a large 8x8 retirement card for my boyfriends mum who retires from nursing this week,

The cute stamp is Popcorn the Bear.

The papers are from MME Bloom and GrowAnd the flowers are a mixture of Prima and WildOrchidCrafts.

The inside has the little duckie in it too.

I still have two birthday cards a wedding card and a christening card to make, so had better get a finger out!

Mothers Day

Here's a card I made ages ago for my mum for mothers day from Lucie (her Springer Spaniel) she's come to expect a card from Lucie now!

The stamp is from Wild Rose Studio and has been coloured to look like Lucie with Copics. The papers are K&Co (I think). Got a wedding card to make ASAP for a wedding tomorrow- oops, think it'll have to be an remake of an old layout!
