The second person to leave was a workmate who has moved to Melbourne, as her partner lives there. L is obsessed with all things French, so I used that as her theme. Stamp Stampington’s ‘Visit to Paris‘ by Claudine Hellmuth onto smooth coated cardstock with Versafine ink. Edge in blue ink, layer onto black cardstock, […]
We have had a few staff leave at work lately, and a few new arrivals to go with that. So farewell cards have been in demand lately. First of the departures at work was a casual who has been working with us for a few years, first as a student then recently as a grad. […]
This was for D’s sister, her birthday was in June. He was after something ‘not girly’, so I had to have a think about it, and what papers and stamps I have. I went with a steampunk themed card using Graphic 45’s Steampunk Debutante collection.
Recently Daedalist requested a card for a male family member. I decided to try out some new things I had to play with, and a different colour scheme to my usual ones. I think it is quite striking.
So I am on leave this week, sick leave to be exact. I wasn’t allowed to drive yesterday or today after having an operation, and so today I decided to set myself some crafting challenges for the week.

Last Saturday I did a Spellbinders workshop at Fantasia at the Bella Vista store. It is the first time I have done a class there, the workshop area is very nice and set out classroom style. I have a die cutting machine (a Big Shot) and while I use it for embossing and some dies […]
In February I attended a wedding that was held to coincide with Chinese New Year. I decided to go with the theme, and use some of my asian papers. I did a similar design for friends a number of years ago, but haven’t used it since (and that time I used my Luck Dragon stamp […]
My work colleague went on maternity leave, and before she left we went to her baby shower. I did a card for the group present we gave her. I have done a lot of pastel baby cards and I wanted something a bit more vibrant – I also know that S and I share a […]
I’m a little behind with some of my updates. I’ll try to get them up over the next week or so. First up is a birthday card for one of my work colleagues. I liked the background paper and wanted to make it a feature. So I found a stamp that had a similar style […]
