About Me

Welcome to my blog

I started this blog in April 2012 so I could join Challenges. I am now on some design teams. I hope you like my cards. I started stamping in 1995 but my cards are still mostly cute.
Thank you to those who have joined as followers and to those who comment.
Unfortunately because of spammers I have had to put moderation on the comments. I will approve them as soon as possible, this also means I don't miss any.
I don't always get a chance to reply to all comments but I read them all when I approve them and I really appreciate you taking the time to give your comment.
The lovely banner was made especially for me by Amanda at Faery Ink Art & Design when I won her first blog challenge. 2025 - Now due to my sore hands and bad eyes I make mostly digital cards and scrapbook pages.

2nd card for Scrapbook Boutique challenge

I made another card tonight for the Scrapbook Boutique challenge

I used distress stain for the purple background and distress ink pads for the yellow and pink.  Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp "Snow White", flowers, white ribbon and pearls.

Kaszazz class

Today I had fun at a Kaszazz class, teacher Gwen Gill.  I made the following cards using distress ink pads, distress stains, a mask and Kaszazz stamps and masking tape (birds).


I enjoyed making these cards and being with the friendly ladies, though my stamping isn't the best.

My card for Scrapbook Boutique June challenge

This is my card for the Scrapbook Boutique challenge for June
http://scrapbookboutiquenews.blogspot.com.au/2012/06/new-challenge-has-started.html
I am just in time as it closes tonight.
This was the inspiration for the challenge
and make it "Fit for a Princess"

I used my new La La Land "Princess Marci" stamp that I bought from Scrapbook Boutique this week.  It arrived yesterday morning just in time for me to make the card after work last night.  Very quick service.
Also used pink and purple card, pattern paper, white lace, punched flowers, pearls and rhinestones.  I have used all the colours in the picutre, purple, pink, yellow and white.
I love the La La Land stamps and I have quite a lot now.   They stamp out so well.  I have trouble with some other unmounted stamps due to my arthritis but I never have any problems stamping the La La Land Stamps.

My cards for Feeling Sketchy Week 13

Here are two cards I made to the Feeling Sketch sketch week 13
http://feeling-sketchy.blogspot.com.au/


This was the sketch to work to:

It is a scrapbook sketch but you could do a card instead which is what I did.  I tried to get the cards made to go in the 6pm mail but unfortunately had too many interruptions so they won't get posted till tomorrow which means that they may be late for the birthdays.
