Today I’m playing with another fun image from a new hostess set, Life’s Adventure and the Mojo Monday sketch. What a great greeting to send someone who needs a boost! The Moonlight designer paper stack had just the right design to coordinate with the theme of this card. I coloured the fox using Stampin’ Write […]
All Occasion
FLOWERS, WASHI TAPE AND A VIDEO
Flowers, washi tape and a tutorial – yes this post includes all three, but not in the way you might think! Firstly, here’s the card that I created. I flipped the Create with Connie and Mary sketch and played with the brand new Stampin’ Up! Blendabilities! They are alcohol-based markers and a dream to colour […]
BIG WAYS, SMALL WAYS, SOMETHING TO SAY!

WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE RETIRING STAMP SET?
Do you have a favourite stamp set that’s retiring? I think mine is Fabulous Florets. I haven’t used it in a long time but I have to say that the softness of the flower images is just so very appealing. I put the images to good use with this week’s MOJO Monday sketch as my […]
LAUGHING FLOWERS – HAPPY EASTER WEEKEND!
