Happy Monday to you and if it’s your birthday today – Happy Birthday to you! I pulled out the Beautiful You stamp set for this card and used some “out of season” colours too. The sketch came from Freshly Made Sketches and is meant to be as clean as possible and that is why I […]
Birthday
SUNSHINE AND A SUNFLOWER
The skies have been pretty clear and the sun has been shining brightly over the past few days. The perfect weather for sunflowers to bloom. Today’s card has just one bright sunflower from the Autumn Harvest stamp set and a fun technique too! This stamp set will be available for you to purchase on September […]
HAVE YOU PAPER PUMPKINED LATELY?
Well, that’s a headline isn’t it? But have you checked out Paper Pumpkin lately? I got busy with my July kit and created these pretty cards with all the supplies that were included in the kit. They are so soft and pretty and it only took me about 1/2 hour to complete them! Want to […]

PLAYING WITH A 3D BIRTHDAY GREETING
Today’s card features the Happy Birthday Thinlits Die done up in 3D. I found a card using this technique on Pinterest(see my page) and just had to Case it! The effect was achieved by stamping the big blossom from the Birthday Blooms stamp set twice – once onto the background paper of Whisper White cardstock […]
A ROSE IS A ROSE
To very loosely quote Shakespeare, “A Rose by any other name would smell as sweet”. Today’s Rose was created by using the Graceful Garden stamp set and the “direct to stamp” technique. This technique involves using our Stampin’ Write Markers to add colour directly to the stamp and then stamping the image onto your cardstock. […]
