Petal Passion Bright and Pretty Card for any Occasion

I stamped some images on Shimmer White Card in Memento Black Ink ages ago, ready to colour with my amazing Stampin Blends. I just forgot to do anything with the images!!

But I have finally got round to sorting our a card and I am really pleased with how it turned out. I gathered a few products together, turned on the camera and put them together to make this card. You can watch my thought process and see how easy it was in the video.

Petal Passion Bright and Pretty Card for any Occasion

I seem to be going through a phase of just getting on with creating. Whether it is because I have had an enforced break and the creative juices are just flowing, or whether I am just more focused I don't know, I just hope it hangs around for a while, it makes me so much more productive!

Have you got any bits and pieces that you prepared 'just in case', but you still need to use? Go on, give it a go. You know you want to.


Oh, and I mention in my video that I am beginning to say goodbye to some of my favourite InColours before it is too late. Remember that if you need to stock up on any of the 2016-2018 Colours, you don't have long to do so, and there will come a point when stocks won't be replenished, so if you need those re-inkers, now is the moment to pop them in your basket - Remember that until 31st March, you will get FREE items for every £45 order (if you spend £90 you can either choose 2 Items, or 1 of the new Level 2 Items!!!), so it is the ideal moment to stock up!

Inspire Create Challenge #010 Colour Challenge

As you know, I love a good challenge, not just it my crafting life, so I am always happy when it is time to design my project for our Challenge group.

Amazing Congratulations Inspire Create Challenge Handmade card


Our challenge this time is a Colour Challenge, which means we can must only use products using this colour pallette, plus Black, Crumb Cake and metallics (oh and Whisper White and Very Vanilla).

As the weather when I was planning this was grey, damp and generally miserable, I was delighted that Hannah (our Design Team Leader) had chosen such a bright pallette. I am pretty pleased with myself that I stuck so closely to the colours we were given.



I hope you enjoyed seeing this project and that you will take part in the challenge this time. There is no requirement for you to have a blog, you can link your project from your Pinterest Board too. Full details on how to do this are on this page of the  website with pictures to guide you through how to do it. 

Remember that until 31st March, you will get FREE items for every £45 order (if you spend £90 you can either choose 2 Items, or 1 of the new Level 2 Items!!!). If you order all the products you need for this card from my Online Store, you can get the ribbon FREE!!!

Heartfelt Blooms a FREE Stamp set during Sale-a-bration

I really am on a sepia theme at the moment, this time very soft stamping to form the background, then a quick sentiment, and all with a free stamp set during Sale-a-Bration.

Heartfelt Blooms Sale-a-bration handmade sepia card

This card is a bit of a departure for me, I am not sure I have made a card quite like it before, it is very simple, but none the worse for that, in fact I think I need to do a few more like this. Hmmm, let's see what I can come up with; give me a few days.

I used the Everyday Label Punch that has carried over from the Autumn/Winter Catalogue, to punch out the sentiment and to mat it. I love getting the most out of my punches and like to think about how I can use them in a slightly different way, you can see how I did this in the video.


If you enjoy my videos, please subscribe to my YouTube Channel, I am on a bit of a mission to get 3,000 subscribers by the end of the month. No reason, it just seemed like the next goal to aim for.

Happy Wishes FREE Stamp Set during Sale-a-Bration

How can I express in the written word how excited I am by this stamp set and the project I have designed with it. And it really is not too complicated, just a bit of heat embossing and some stamping.

Happy Wishes Sale-a-Bration Handmade Sepia Card

This project does use quite a few products, but it does mean that if you order them all from my Online Store, you ca pick the stamp set for FREE; that's a two box set of red rubber stamps FREE!


I seem to have hit a bit of a sepia phase again, it has been a while, but I think it will always be a style that will come back to me, whether it's that I have so many old family photos, or something else, I really don't know, but it feels like home.

I really hope you like the card and that you will give it a go. Hop over to my online store to order the products you want. If you are in the UK and need a catalogue, just fill in the form at the bottom of this page.
