Time

  The stamp is Tim Holtz’s Time stamp for ATCs 

Birthday in Yellow

This card was made for an aunt who will be 92 next month and is partially sighted so I needed a very bright card.  I think it looks a bit dull on here though.

The Pink version

This is the pink version in the batch of cards previously mentioned. The photo has emerged a bit on the dark side, IRL it is much brighter. 

Thomas–Big Bunch of Flowers

This is another LOTV stamp.  The flowers are all from WOC.  Unfortunately the light has cast a shadow on the Craftwork Cards sentiment and shown up the stems of the spray underneath.  

Birthday Grunge–or is it?

The second card in the batch is an attempt at a grungy card but the sentiment is much too dark in this picture.  In fact, I think the whole photo is too dark but it was a dull day in my defence.

Birthday in Green

This is the green example of a batch of cards I am making for our local hospice charity to sell.  They are all similar but different colourways.  I think this one is my favourite though.

Another Anniversary Card

A variation on my previous anniversary card – not sure if the flower works on the front.  I think I should have used a 3-D one but I have carried it over to the insert.


I think the flower works better on the inside but the addition of a shape to write on would look better so will add one. 

Ellie the Elephant

This was a quick card.  I am not totally happy with the way Ellie turned out but I liked the flower.  Ellie is a Stamposaurus clear stamp.

Just Chill!

This is one of Joanna Sheen’s House Mouse summer designs Chill Out  on a card I made for my Son’s birthday.

Wedding Anniversary

I was pleased with this card although in the picture the edges of the card and the surface of the sentiment look dirty.  In reality I had gone over them with iridescent medium so they shone when they caught the light.

Clean & Simple

I made this card for a Less is More challenge but in the end decided that it had too much on it.

New Home

I always dreamed of living in a cottage like this when I was young.
The wonky fairy is back again, that reminds me I must find some board!  Yes, I know it is another peel-off but needs must and all that!
Heralding the beginning of the end of summer – our Swifts have left the area so no more “screaming” until next year.  I like it when they arrive but not when they leave.  However, we still have our House Martins, they don’t usually go to Africa until September/October and then it really will be the end of Summer!

Lazy Afternoon

This birthday card was made for my old boss – he is now retired but was an extremely busy, eminent surgeon. I wasn’t ultra-happy about the way the background turned out but unfortunately did not have time to re-stamp and re-colour. The stamp and sentiment are from LOTV natch.  The background papers are digital and from Donna at Bearly Mine Designs.  I have a number of these gorgeous designs but cannot remember which set these are from as I printed a number of them off at the time, sorry!

Teddy–Bouquet

Another LOTV stamp today, I said they were my favourites!  The wonkiness has reappeared in all it’s glory though, I must find something more stable for the easel to stand on.
