Hi everyone
For today’s quick card, I used a gorgeous die from Simon Says Stamp which I cut twice – once in glitter paper and once in vellum.
I offset the glitter die cut to expose just a thin shadow of vellum. I added some Hero Arts Metallic Décor and a sentiment from Clearly Besotted to complete the card.
I’m entering this in the current Simon Says Stamp Flickr challenge – ‘birthday bash’.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi everyone
I have the honour of being a guest designer over at the Less is More challenge blog this week.
The theme is ‘personalise it’ and here is the card I made for my DJ brother using dies from Technique Tuesday and My Favourite Things.
I created the personalised sentiment using good ol’ MS Word and the Bradley Hand Font, which I love to use for my personalised cards!
The design team have created some wonderful cards for this challenge over at the Less is More blog – I hope you have a chance to check them out and join in the challenge!
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Everyone!
I turned to my sadly-neglected distress stains for today’s card and used them to create a soft background. I then used Cosmic Shimmer Paste and a Simon Says Stamp stencil to add the sparkle.
When the paste was dry, I added a simple sentiment from My Sentiments Exactly, which I’ve had for years and years!
Today’s card is for threechallenges – the Case this Sketch challenge, the Simon Says Stamp Flickr challenge (Birthday Bash) and also the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge (Touchy Feely).
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi there!
There’s a really interesting sketch over at the Freshly Made Sketches challenge blog this week and I just had to give it a whirl.
This is my take using dies from Neat and Tangled and Clearly Besotted, plus a very old brad!
Thanks for looking.

Happy Saturday Everyone!
For today’s card, I used a set of dies from Elizabeth Craft Designs (which I bought after Christmas but hadn’t got round to using yet!) and a die from Penny Black Stamps that I have been trying to get my hands on for a few months. Luckily my local craft store had a Penny Black delivery last weekend and I was able to snap it up!
I used the four colours from this week’s Color Throwdown challenge (navy, light pink, white and gold) on a kraft card base. When I originally put the sentiment on the card, it looks a bit ‘lost’ so I added a small vellum rectangle to help it stand out a bit more.
I’m also entering this card into the current Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge (going round in circles).
Thanks for looking!

Hi everyone!
Not much time to craft today as I’ve been busy doing garden chores!
So here’s a very quick birthday card that I made for a friend using stamps by Penny Black and Hero Arts.
Thanks for stopping by!
