A wedding card (using a favourite stamp) and a farewell card. Although this stamp, My Mother’s Dress, is not strictly a wedding one, I find it works well on wedding cards if I am designing for the bride. I used it a few years ago for my manager, although this time I was going for […]
Despite good intentions, I once again got behind with posts. This was due to a number of reasons, including: making cards for the crazy Christmas period making different cards for the New Year period going into hospital for major surgery on 23 December while I was recovering from surgery, my brother visited from the UK, […]
One of my colleagues had her birthday a while back, and I wanted to play around with some new papers and wooden embellishments I got around Christmas time. The papers are from Prima Marketing’s Epiphany collection (specifically the Striking Appearance design), which has distressed, watercolour-esque backgrounds with black doodle style images. There is a light […]
My former director left my workplace recently, and this is the card I made for her from those in my team who used to be in her area. Cream cardstock folded to a square card, edged in blue ink. Strip of blue, white and gold chiyogami paper mounted on blue metallic paper, and then placed […]
One of my colleagues finished up at work recently, as her position was made redundant. I have worked closely with her for quite a few years, and I’m very sad to see her leave 🙁 She has commented before that I usually make her cards with ‘island colours’ (she is from Fiji), so I wanted […]
I have been busy with work and bootcamp, and am very behind with my posts. I’ll put them up over the next few weeks. This is a card I made for one of my friends when his mother passed away. The paper and topper are from a Melissa Frances set, edged with blue and antique […]
Recently two of my friends had a joint birthday party, fancy dress theme. (ok the theme was Game of thrones but I wasn’t feeling it). I had these gorgeous papers by KaiserCraft from their ‘Through the Looking-Glass’ paper set. They are very floral and vibrant, but there are also the classic illustrations by Tenniel throughout […]
One of my team members became engaged while she was on holidays recently. I made this for her Cream card folded to make a square. Edged in Antique Linen distress ink. Square butterfly and text paper cut to fit, distressed and inked around the edges. Attached to card, thne flower on gold paper added to […]
I have not posted for a while, as I was extremely busy with work right up to the day I went to Europe (yay) for nearly a month. There was sightseeing involved of course, but the main purpose was to attend my brother’s wedding. He has lived in London for the past 10 years, and […]
I created this for the August 2014 Craft stamper ‘Take it, make it‘, it is the first time I have entered anything like this and I enjoyed the opportunity to play around and challenge myself. NOTE: sadly I missed out uploading this by the cut off (I blame the International Date Line), but I still […]
