Thank you


I love this Sarah Kay stamp, so I used it with the sketch from Magnolia Vs Stampaive Challenge

I stamped a floral border around the edge of the image in baby blue ink, stamped the flowers & swirls onto the CS with white ink, but it wasn't bright enough for me, so I went of it with a white gel pen, the Thank you stamp is from Fiskars Wedding clear stamp set. I cut out the butterflies twice, once with PP & then with vellum, with my cricut using the TD cartridge, added a few buttons to finish it off. I really love how it turned out, although I feel the scanned image does it justice.

CPS #98


I made this birthday card for a friend of ours who loves fishing, I used the sketch from CPS The stamp is Cape Arago Rubber Stamps but I don't know much more than that as I received it in a swap, I coloured it with watercolour pencils & added glossy accents to the water & the fish to give it that "wet" look. I used mulberry paper to give it some texture, as I find with most male cards, they lack something without all the "pretties" :)

Caarvarks - Calico challenge


This card is made with the sketch from Caarvarks by Becky Fleck from Page Maps. I don't know which company the stamps are from, I received them in a stamp swap a long time ago & now I finally get to use them for my nephews 30th birthday card.

I'm a Verve Challenge Champion!

The challenge at SCS was a lot of fun, there were 4 daily challenges & these are mine.


VSLFL1 - Birthday Wishes


This cute little WOJ stamp was too big for the scallop punch I wanted to use, so after tamping the image, I scanned it & resized it, coloured it in with watercolour pencils & added some KindyGlitz to the cake topping. Used Bazzill Basics, flowers, buttons & a rhinestone to finish off. Oh the Birthday Wishes is a See-D's stamp

VSLFL2 - Lizzie



I received this WOJ stamped image from a friend & she is so cute, I just had to use her. I coloured her in with watercolour pencils, cut the scallop edging with my cricut, used Bazzill Basics, some KindyGlitz, a flower, button & rhinestones

VSLFL3 - Happy Birthday


SU! Fishy Friends stamps are sooo cute, I only received these at Christmas (pressie to self haha) so I had to play with them, did the scalloping with my cricut, added ribbon, a flower & rhinestone.

VSLFL4 - Summer by the sea


Ok... another pressie to self... the SU! Summer by the Sea set, these are gorgeous!! I wanted to use this image for the card, but it was way too big , so I stamped it, scanned it & resized it. I love it against the mulberry paper & floral PP.
