Hmmm Cupcakes

Look no pink!!! I love these little cupcake stamps by Hero Arts, they are currently one of my favourite new stamps. You can't see it on the photo but I have glittered up a little of the icing on the cake.... You will also notice that I'm back into spots again!!!

Scalloped circle cut with another of my new toys Nestabilities scalloped circles, used on my faithful cuttlebug! I love them... I could talk about them for hours!!!

What I love about them the most is that you can cut a whole range of sizes using just one set, I think there is 6 scalloped circles in one set and thr largest is 4 inches, they take up hardly any room, unlike the punches. I store mine in clear CD boxes.

Happy Anniversary Card

Oooh I've been a bad blogger haven't I?! Been really busy lately and haven't had much time to make many cards and the ones I have made I still can't show!!

Anyway here's the anniversary card I made for my OH, Our anniversary was Monday (21st) can't believe it's been 14 years... I was a sweet innocent 16 year old when we met lol... I thought at first he had forgotton as no card first thing :(... but I came home to a lovely card, flowers and pink sapphire earrings... So I actually did quite well!

Papertrey Butterfly

Well it didn't take long for for a pink card to find it's way on my blog lol... I am going to try this year to use more colours in my cards but pink will always be my favourite colour!!

I wanted to try out my new clear stamp set which I bought just before christmas, it's a butterfly stamp set by papertrey and I just lurve them!!

I'm in the process of making some female birthday cards with no pink on them for a competition and I am also making myself an address book and calandar with my bind it all machine, this will be the first thing I have made with my bind it machine to keep for myself as I normally give them away! Once they are finished I'll show you them!

Male Birthday Card - Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year to all my online blogger friends!!! Lets hope 2008 is a good one for us all.... I've been quite poorly over christmas/new year... just slowly trying to get back on my feet.

Anyway first card of the year and it was a kinda OMG I've got a male card to do and I have no idea what to do type of panic this afternoon lol!!

Anyway had a little play with that lovely cuttlebug cake die and this is the fairly simple but effective card I came up with... Hope it doesn't look too girly?!

The dotty paper is HOTP (still in shock that I cut into this as it's gorgeous!) and the 'happy birthday' stamp is from the new Hero Arts clear stamp sets (yep I treated myself to a few sets!)

Loads more cards to share and you'll be impressed to hear that some don't have pink on lol!!

Doodlebug Snowman

I just love this snowman in a snowglobe from Doodlebug, it's one of my favourite christmas stamps!! I've slightly decoupaged up the bottom of the snowglobe and then used my scalloped woodware punch which must be one of my best buys this year too! Snow has been glittered up using Stickles!

Christmas Snowflake

Well I am almost there I have one more christmas card to make and then I am done for 2007, hooray! I love this LO that my friend inspired me to make from her own idea!

The snowflake is a chipboard snowflake covered in sparkley glamour dust, it sparkles beautifully in the light!

Cute Reindeer

I think this stamp is one of my favourite christmas stamps, it's from Penny black.. isn't he cute?!

The papers are doodlebug and again the greeting is from the Doodlebug Christams Clear rubber stamp set.

Snowflake Card

I love this snowflake card, the large snowflake is a die cut pack from Craftwork cards, I then used some 3 dimentional glue to give the snowflake texture and then sprinkled a bit of glamour dust so it sparkles.

The greeting on the card is from the Doodlebug clear christmas stamp set and the embossing is the cuttlebug snowflake embossing plate.

Birthday card... and it's pink!!

Well I couldn't not post another pink card... sorry I know I need to use some other colours, I just can't help myself, I just always reach for pink... I just love this cuttlebug cake die, one of my best buys! The swirly bits of the icing have glitter on them so it really sparkles, the photo doesn't really show it up.

You'll be pleased to hear I have hardly made any pink christmas cards...

Doodlebug Christmas

Well I promised a non pink card so here you go lol!

I'm loving these Doodlebug christmas stamps, I love how they match the papers, which I had a hard time cutting into lol!


I've been busy trying to make so many christmas cards as I have been behind with being ill in October... I did a very bad thing yesterday and bought a box of cards to send to those that don't normally appreciate a hand made card... feel dreadful as I have so much christmas stuff to start a shop but I feel less stressed now, it was only 35 I needed to send out... 12 more cards and then I am done!!!
