Hello lovely peeps

Excellent news for rubber stamp fans - Lili of the Valley will be appearing on Hochanda on Monday 2nd July with some new sheets of Christmas stamps. Woo hoo!

Jack be nimble

Hello lovely peeps

Today's card features 'Ricky Hanging Around' by Tiddly inks.

Pawly but Purrfect

Hello lovely peeps and welcome to my new follower :o)

Today's card is a variation on one I had published in Creative Stamping magazine last month featuring Simply Sweet Stamps. Sorry, did I not mention that? My first magazine commission, woo hoo! (although I have to say I'm disappointed they didn't send me a copy of the magazine.)

Seaside Z-fold

Hello lovely peeps

Just popping in quickly to show you the Father's Day card I made for my FIL, using the rubber version of Take It Easy from Lili of the Valley. Doesn't he look like he's having a relaxing time?

I love Prosecco

Hello lovely peeps

Today's card was made for a commission - the brief was 'Prosecco'.
A girl after my own heart :D

Glued to his screen

Hello lovely peeps

Another commissioned card to show you today, for my friend's Grandson who is always glued to his phone/tablet. I've used the rubber version of Oliver Texting from Lili of the Valley, which you can still get as a digi here.

Sausage Dog Bridesmaid

Hello lovely peeps



I realized I haven't shared this commissioned wedding card with you yet.  I was asked for a personalised card for the couple's big day in May, possibly featuring a winnebago or a sausage dog (their's was going to be part of the wedding party). Well it was going to be hard to make a winnebago look romantic, so I went with the dog theme.

Make a Wish

Hello lovely peeps

For today's card I've used the Fairy set from Simply Sweet Stamps.

Howdy Pardner

Hello lovely peeps



Sorry I've been so quiet - I've been taking advantage of the good weather to do a bit of jungle clearance gardening.  It's been lovely working outside in the fresh air and sunshine - I made sure to follow patches of shade around the garden though so I didn't get horribly sunburnt.

I've also been sorting out my huge bundle of used Copic pens that I got for a really good price on eBay. I've never hit 'Buy It Now' with such enthusiasm :D

Look at this lovely lot, I'm so excited.

So, on to today's card - I've used Clint the Cowboy by Kraftin' Kimmie, which I coloured with my new (to me) Copics. I stamped him up last week along with lots of other images in preparation for the current 30 Day Colouring Challenge at The Daily Marker.

Three of Something

Hello lovely peeps

There's a new challenge today at Crafty Calendar and the theme this month is 'Three of Something' - I've used 3 buttons and 3 patterned papers.
