Home sweet home

 I made this card for a couple who recently moved into their first home together.

The stamp was a gift from a friend, 

and my inspiration came from the colour of the front door of the new home.


I used some retired SU paper, much loved, that coordinated well,
and has the bird theme.
It was fairly quick and easy, some colouring in, deckled die cuts from SU too.


Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate your visits and comments.

The Bird has flown take 2....

Hi there
glad you popped back!
See my post earlier for the details,
but this was another version of the same idea,
but using different colours.....again trying to use a friend's favourites.

I used Coastal Cabana and Highland Heather.
You might be able to see the shimmer paint splats here.



Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate all your visits and comments.
Take care

Free As A Bird, but the bird has flown..

Hello again
I was inspired by Jan Clothier of thinkingstamping.co.nz
to make some cards using a masking and inking technique.
Check out her lovely card HERE.

I masked off a panel and used a sponge brayer to add ink, fading it out at the bottom.
Stamped and coloured in the leaves, and stamped a coloured the flowers
on a separate scrap of card.


I chose some of my friend's favourite colours, 
Balmy Blue and So Saffron, and I also added glitter which is rare for me!


I also added some splats of shimmer paint, by brushing gently against the lid.
Sorry my pics don't show this very well.

I loved this design so much, I decided to make another,
 but you'll have to come back later to see!!

I used the Free As A Bird stamp set, but just used the flowers and leaves.
That's the great thing about sets, you can just use elements of it.

See you soon for take 2 !

Free as a Bird

Hi there
Today I'm sharing some makes with Free as a Bird

I paired Detailed Laser cut paper with some of the paper from the birds set

Fussy cut some focal points, adhered to a label with sentiment


You have to work with the lacy paper. so the back doesn't show all the messy bits






Some of the pics show work in progress
