Hi there!
Welcome to Day 2 of Heart Week!
My heart card today is my entry for the colour challenge at Just us Girls.
My focal point today is a bouquet of Simply Graphic dies, partly coloured using distress oxide ink. I also added an ink blended heart to the top of a Simply Graphic stem to fill out the centre of my bouquet.
I used the largest die from the Poppystamps Pinpoint Hearts die set for the background and a stamped sentiment from a Mama Elephant set.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone!
Welcome to Day 24 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2023! Today I’m playing along with this week’s Just Us Girls CAS challenge.
The challenge theme is ‘three of something’ and so it seemed like the perfect opportunity for me to use my Simply Graphic die set called Gang des peres de noel! I had such fun putting these together!
I cut the windows with an older My Favorite Things die and adhered it to my card base before adding the die cuts. The sentiment is by Creative Expressions.
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Monday everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the Color Throwdown ! Now I have to confess that the palette was very challenging to me. I’m not sure why… maybe the graphic… maybe just the combo… I really struggled with the aqua as I usually choose a lighter shade when using that colour… but in the end, I stopped overthinking it and just used Peacock Feathers which looked close to the colour in the graphic!
I didn’t like the card I made yesterday so I redid something more ‘me’ after work this evening – I’m glad the challenge doesn’t close until 11pm UK time! I used a vase stamp by Stampin’ Up, stems from Simply Graphic and a frame by Reverse Confetti. The sentiment is by My Favorite Things.

Hello everyone!
Welcome to Day 23 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2022! Today I’m playing along in the Just Add Ink sketch challenge.
I picked up a few 3D embossing folders from Simon Says Stamp a few weeks ago and they arrived yesterday – I couldn’t wait to play with them! The thing is, they are just so beautiful, I can never bring myself to cover up the embossing! So today’s card is pretty simple – the Christmas Floral embossing folder is the star and die cuts by Poppystamps, Savvy Stamps and Simply Graphic make up the supporting cast!
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone!
Welcome to Day 21 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2022! It’s the third Thursday of the month and time for Jenn Shurkus’s ‘Get Cracking on Christmas’.
I have to say that the colour challenges are really challenging me this month! Today’ I’m playing along with the Color Throwdown challenge but the palette of yellow, green, aqua and kraft isn’t overly festive….
In the end, I smooshed some Squeezed Lemonade distress ink onto my card base and coloured some Simply Graphic die cuts with distress oxide ink for my non-traditional Christmas card!
The sentiment is by Mama Elephant.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello Everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the Freshly Made Sketches challenge.
When I saw the sketch, I decided it would be perfect for the die fleur double by Simply Graphic! So I chose a couple of pieces of card and got crafty! I stencilled some Nuvo Moonstone paste on my card base and added a Memory Box sentiment plus a few gems to complete my take.
Thanks for stopping by!
