Beautiful Flora and Embellishments

After using a digital stamp for my card making yesterday from Funky Kits I couldn’t resist getting this little beauty too. Her name is Flora.


I also found the most delightful Etsy store full of fabulous embellishments and everything just kept dropping in my basket and when you receive your order it is all so pretty, the lace was wrapped around dolly pegs with a little pearl topped pin to secure the lace in place ooh and the pearl embellished large pins are just a delight. All of the embellishments on my card, lace, pins, pearls, buttons and flowers are from this cute as a button store and tomorrow Thursday I will have more to share with you about it and even a giveaway for some lucky person.

I used the Tonic Studios border system for the large scallop and coloured the image with Copic markers, the designer paper is from Papertrey Ink and the ribbon is a satin ribbon from Fantastic Ribbons.

Baby Jack Second Birthday Card

Oh my lord our little darling will soon be two years old, hard to believe. He is quite the chappy these days, he is a real wind up merchant just like his Mum, he has just the right gaze to melt our hearts and his Granda just worships him.


As soon as I saw the Nathan image from Funky Kits I new I had to make it for Jack. I have kept it CAS (clean and simple) using pastel blue with white and using the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder and Spellbinders Nestabilities Label dies to frame the image.

ATG–Automatic Tape Gun Giveaway.

As most of you know I love my ATG Gun and use it constantly to make my cards, it just half's the time in sticking things down and I even use it to add buttons flowers and the likes.


When I was stocking up on my tapes and extra gun just fell into my basket and thought it would be fun to give one away with 2 rolls of tape.

Hurry Harold

Such a great image this one, and it will suit Chris’s dad down to the ground, it isn’t just fathers day for him today but it is also his Birthday so double whammy on the present and card front.

Hurry Harold even looks like him, he dots about all over on his scooter and it has given him his second wind since getting one.

happy Fathers day to all those Dads out there and hugs to those whose Fathers are no longer with them.

My card is an 8”x 8” card the papers are from a very old K & Co scrapbook pad.

Image is a digi stamp from Just Inklined and can be purchased here as a digi stamp and here as a digi print

Come Out and Play

Come out and Play by Mo Manning reminds me so much of myself when I was little, me and my best friend Hazel all but lived in our roller skates we used to make up display routines and dance in them, looking back makes me giggle as we used to live next to a coal mine in fact right in the pit grounds and we would dance for the miners and often got pennies for our skating which went straight into the Pit Canteen for sweets ha ha, how embarrassing now.


You can purchase Come out and Play at Mo’s Digital pencil
