Sweet Moments

 Hello,

I have been pretty busy creating lots of cards lately. I am loving all the new CHA releases and I think Spring is my favourite season to create cards for. I love all the pastel tones and super cute images. Today I have three cards to share using the Dovecraft Sweet Moments Collection...

 I needed to create a few cards for my box that were quick to put together and thee were perfect. I love all the pastel colours. I used the Sweet Moments Decoupage Pad along with the matching Paper Pack. I mounted everything onto light kraft card - the perfect companion for pastel colours! I added some ribbons, pearls and flowers to finish them off.

I will be back soon :)

Joy Piggies

Hi all,

Today I am back to share my second card from my project in the latest issue of Making Cards Magazine. It's another nice and simple one with some cute piggies...

For this card I used some MFT Stamps called Sow Much Cuteness. I coloured them with Copic Pens and fussy cut them out. I created the background using Distress Inks and a blending tool. I stamped some flowers in the same distress ink onto the grass for a different effect. The sentiment is from the same stamp set and die cut with a sentiment banner die.

I will be back soon :)

Smile

Hi all,

I have been so busy doing so much crafting lately that I even had time to make a card just for fun! Today I am sharing bright fun card that I made using some Mama Elephant Stamps...

For this card I used the Mama Elephant Stamps called Photo Bomb. I have had these for ages but have only recently found them again so I had to ink them up! I coloured my images with Copic Pens (some were running out at the time, eek!). I used the Mama Elephant Polaroid Fun Dies too which fit perfectly with these images along with the Smile word die.

I will be back soon.

Party Parade

Hi all,

I had a lovely day out at Farnborough Make It Show yesterday. I stocked up on some craft essentials and got some fabulous new products that I can't wait to use. Lili Of The Valley launched their wonderful new collection of stamps there, I reckon this is definitely their best collection ever! I have another sneak peek today...

The new stamps will be available to order online on Monday, so not long to wait! I made this one using the stamp called Party Parade. It's perfect for so many occasions, but I went with a spring birthday theme. The sentiment will also be released on Monday online. I coloured the image with Copic Pens and the papers are Nitwits. I added a die cut scallop border, ribbon, flower and pearls.

I will be back with more creations soon.

Fairy Happy Birthday

Celebrate Shaker Card

Another busy week ahead for us all here. Half term has begun too so it's going to be a fun week, I am so happy I get to spend some more time with my daughter. Today's card was featured in Crafts Beautiful Magazine for my shaker card tutorial. Here is a simple one to show the technique...

Birthday Chicks

Hi all,

I made this card to enter it into the MFT Weekly Sketch Challenge but I forgot so I missed the deadline - oops. Well I thought I would still share it anyway. It is nice and bright and i loved playing with this layout...

I've had these super cute chicks by MFT ready coloured on my desk for ages so thought it was about time they got made into a card. They were all coloured with copic markers and stamped in memento. I blended some distress inks (seedless preserves & tumbled glass) onto some die cut stitched circles. I used the new MFT Confetti Stencil to create the background and glue the circles on top. I added a stamped sentiment and added the chicks in place with 3d foam.

I will be back soon :)

Cute Cats

Hiya!

So I'm trying out a different style of taking photographs of my cards - a bit more on trend you could say. As I sometimes do some simple cards it is hard to photograph white so this way seems a bit better so far. Today's card was made using some Clearly Besotted Stamps, inspired by the fabulous team at Clearly Besotted...

For this card I used the new Cupid Cutie Stamps and with the coordinating die cuts. I also used the On The Shelf Stamps and dies for the sentiments. I coloured them all with Copics and added them onto an embossed background.

I will be back soon :)

Birthday Fairy

Hi all,

Today I am sharing a card made using the new Fairy Art Sheets from Lili Of The Valley. You may remember I made a couple of cards a couple of weeks ago using the stamp version of these, but these are the pre printed Art Sheets...

I do love using the art sheets. If you aren't in the mood for colouring or haven't got much time they really are the best for that! I teamed up my fairy with some funky background papers. I added lots of details. A die cut butterfly (think the die is from The Works), a banner, flowers and pearls. The sentiments are also from Lili of The Valley called Teenage Girl Sentiments.

I will be back soon with more creations :)
