Love a duck

 Spring has arrived, and the ducks are busy….

I’ve a few cards to share today.

First card is a fancy fold, that stands firm.




These are very simple, using the lovely designer paper….

SU Charming Duck Pond



I added some leafy die cuts to this frame…



Take care and see you soon

Golden Honey

Using my new favourite ….Arch die set, I made a gift box,

with inspiration from erica@pinkbuckaroo.com,

I cut two arch pieces, sandwiched a hand made box in between.


Some old SU paper and bee die set…


There have been lots of busy bees in the garden,

enjoying the sunshine as much as me!

Take care and see you soon

Sometimes a simple card is best

 Sometimes a simple card is best…..

I used the masks only for the tree (not the stamps)


Grounded it with a smudge of ink, and stamped a bird


Take care and see you soon

So many candles…

 ……so little cake!

A quick sweet fun card using One More Year (SU), for the cake and “bubbles”,

plus an old designer paper that has a very similar design, or so I thought. (Bubbles and Fizz, SU).


I adhered the paper onto card front, then die cut a square peep hole.


Take care and see you soon

Colour Blocking

 Hope your weekend is going well.

I came across this technique, Colour Blocking, 

and gave it a try using different card stock cut into sections



I then stamped and embossed over the top..




My inspiration, and much better examples can be found here:

Carissa Wiley of Sprinkledwithglitter.com


This should take you to the video…

Take care and see you soon
