Daisy Mother's Day Card


Made using unbranded large letter dies, Sizzix Bigz Flower Daisies #2 65401 and Sue Wilson Antlia die.

She loves daisies and as she is in self isolation I am hoping this may brighten her day.  Asking rather a lot of a card in this current climate but one can hope.

Stay safe and keep well everyone. xx

Crealies No 77 Birthday Card


Birthday card made using Crealies No 77 dies.  The larger cuts are embossed with a Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder and the smaller dies were used for the floral vellum which I got in a bundle from a charity shop but I have seen it on Ebay.

The sentiment is from Hobbycraft Sentiments Layering Stamp and Die Set stamped onto a Spellbinders tag.

Spellbinders Shapeabilities - Cannetille Rectangle Dies



Made using

Spellbinders Shapeabilities Cannetille Rectangle dies
Crafters Companion Little One die
Crafters Companion Boy Girl dies

The ribbon, and elephant with balloons set are unbranded.

I find new baby cards hard to do; grown up celebratory cards are far easier.

Anyway, one down, one to go.

Tattered Lace Stag Symphony Christmas Card in Spellbinders Scribe PA Frame



Made using
Spellbinders PA Scribe set,
Tattered Lace Stag Symphony 
Impression Obsession Twig Wreath, Pine Needles Holly Berries Set.

The poinsettia and rectangle dies are unbranded.

I embossed the stags from the back with a ball embossing tool to make them appear more 3d and added eyes and noses.  Though some of the smaller deer look a little googly eyed or winking as my pen was slightly dodgy.  Lol.

Repeat 20 more times.  I'd had more than enough of stags and apertures by then! 😅😀

Thank you and Seasons greetings to those who have stopped by over the last year from far and wide. 

Snowflake Ribbon Christmas Card



Made using unbranded dies and cut twice, one in white and one in silver.  Glued together but slightly offset to give a 3d effect.



This is the same card but using the negative space.  Boy was it tricky gluing the tiny pieces into position in the snowflakes!  

And I hate it when you can see the glue on the silver card but it was so difficult on this and the other version looks much better anyway.  Lol.
