This is a great one for fellas and teens, both of which are very hard for me to create so I was pretty chuffed with myself when I made it from scratch as a live on my You Tube channel (I have added the link below) This is a great fun fold as it uses the minimum of supplies, paper trimmer, card, ink, stamp set & punch!

Continue readingFor the last 4 – 5 years I have designed and enjoyed making my flip over desk calendar for the ladies who come to my classes. As I have done for the last few years I am going to be sharing one at the start of each month. This was designed for a stamp camp in early December 2023, we had such fun making them and my ladies have made me promise to do another for 2026 ……….. already!
Like last year, I recognize not everyone is into making 3D items so have created a card for each month, using elements from the calendar for that month. .
So today I share, May’s Buzzy Bees!

I did not add any greeting to this one – I figured it would work for lots of different occasions 🙂 Check out the video below.
Continue readingI designed this card as a request from one of my dear ladies, I love the bright and cheerful colors that work so perfectly with the Cheerful Daisies Stamp Set and the Scalloped Contours Dies.

So I have used it one more time, along with a silhouette and splatter technique………. with a video on the technique!!!!
Today I am sharing an Ice Cream Swirl Fun Fold and Gift Tag using a Mosaic Technique to use different colors in a die cut. This is a very easy technique that works well for any die that has an outline and smaller sections within it……….. you need to watch the video …….. 🙂

I also wanted to share another card using some of the card/inks that are retiring at the end of this month, although I have made this any occasion card I think by changing the greeting this would make the perfect Mother’s Day Card.
Continue readingDuring a recent You Tube Live I created today’s card literally from scratch building up a vintage/shabby chic style card featuring some of the products in the Nature’s Sweetness Collection. I was really thrilled on how the card turned out!
