Special Auntie

Hello lovely peeps

I've got a tri-fold to share with you today that I made for a commission. I'd been dying to use the Large Birthday Sentiments* from Lili of the Valley with some flowers and I'm quite pleased with how this turned out.

Up, up and away

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

Just popping in to share a card I made for a lady at work who finished her placement this week.

Sketchy Flowers on Throwback Tuesday

Hello lovely peeps and welcome to my new email followers :o)

This week's Throwback Tuesday features some old scribbly flower stamps by Artemio. There's no date on the packet, but they were on QVC when Dawn Bibby was still presenting so they're donkey's years old :0)

Robin gift bag

Hello lovely peeps.

I found a lovely card on Pinterest by Minna0402 and it inspired me to do something similar with some kraft paper bags that I bought last month for decorating.

First I stamped the snowbird (Stampendous) onto Kraft card with Black Archival Ink and coloured it in with my new Gansai Tambi paints

I used some Artemio stamps and Timber Brown Stazon to add some interest around the edges

and then splattered on white acrylic paint to make it look snowy.
I attached a snowflake charm (Dovecraft) by wrapping white twine around and then matted and layered onto a Kraft bag with red and white card

It's finished off with a Christmassy red bow and some white pine sprig die-cuts (Impression Obsession)
