Celebrate with Pizza (The Paper Shelter image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I normally always colour my images as my crafty friends will know but this time I used a pre-coloured image from The Paper Shelter, isn't he great? I printed him onto glossy photo paper and fussy cut around him and the pizza dough. I kept the card fairly clean and simple so the background looks more like a floor and wallpapered wall.

Make a wish unicorn card (The Greeting Farm stamps)

Hi Crafty Friends,

How lucky was I to win last month's The Greeting Farm's $50 gift voucher prize! So I went ahead and bought a few gorgeous unicorn stamps and some lovely sentiment stamps and dies. This whole set comes from The Greeting Farm and I used a Lawn Fawn frame die. I popped all the little details onto foam tape. For the unicorn's mane I used a mixture of teal and yellow copics.

Autumn Birthday Girl

Hi Crafty Friends,

I hope everyone's well? It's starting to warm up here in Australia, finally Spring is here and we're loving it! I am so used to creating for the opposite seasons though as most of you are going into Autumn and so I'm more than happy to create some Autumn feel cards. I love red and brown so it's an easy combination for me, I think I find Christmas cards the trickiest, do you have any you find harder to find mojo for?

This is another one of my old images I've had printed forever and not used, I'm really trying to get through them even though I keep printing new ones too still! This was a free colouring page and I don't even know where from now, sorry. I used some gorgeous glossy leaves from my company, Flourish with a Bling

Get Well Soon card (CC Designs image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

CC Designs have some of my favourite images, they were one of the first digi/stamp companies I started using, I loved that their hair was in sections, it made it easier to figure out how to shade hair. I love this little fairy nurse, I did actually colour this image a while ago and only now got around to creating a card for it. I love using black, red and white, it's a really striking colour combination isn't it? I used a tiny flower punch to make the flowers and just added a red pearl to their centres. The hearts are from the Lala Land heart banner die.




I am entering this card into the following challenges:
