Blooms & Wishes

These are some cards cased (copied and selectively edited) from Kylie Bertucci (see her bog HERE). I was really pleased with the results.

The one bottom right was sent as part of an international card swap run by Caroline in the UK (see her blog HERE) I used Marina Mist cardstock and the Bloom & Wishes stamp set. The design on the right border is a stamp from the Totally Trees stamp set.

Wedding Card

A simple and elegant card made for my niece's wedding. I used the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits and Fancy Frost Speciality designer series paper. To finish off I used Wink of Stella on the front heart and a few pearls.

Handmade Book

This is a handmade book made for my grandson after a family holiday to Manly. I used the By the Shore designer series paper for all the pages and the wavy die from the Swirly Scribbles Thinlits worked really well on the title page. The book is a great favourite and a wonderful reminder of a terrific family holiday.

I found a YouTube tutorial from Pink & Fun - CLICK HERE  It's not in English but there are English subtitles and measurements are shown on the screen. I found it very easy to follow.

Baby Gift Box & Card

I knitted a little cardigan for a new baby in the family. When I was preparing to gift wrap it I realised it matched perfectly with Stampin' Up's Sweet Sugarplum colour.
I made a box using Sweet Sugarplum and Whisper White cardstocks and some of the Succulent Garden designer series paper. Stitched Framelits, Enamel Shapes and silver ribbon finished everything off beautifully.

Welcome to my Blog!

Welcome to the first of what I hope will be many opportunities to share my creative journey. Setting up a blog has definitely taken me out of my comfort zone. At the very least, it will be a way to record my work and at the very best, it will allow me to share my efforts with others.

So, here we go...
