BDay Card

This card was done with a brayered BG, coloured with one of my kaleidacolor stamp pads and put through my cuttlebug. The coffee cup was coloured with copic pens and amazing glaze gives it the shiny glossy look, a bit of glitter gives it zing. The sentiment was a happy birthday sticker and I cut the scalloped edge with my spellbinder die. Happy Birthday Howard!

Embossed Melted Crayon

Wanted to see if you could emboss on top of melted crayon (TJ technique) and it worked perfectly, like the effect it has produced!

Two New Posts

New Technique Junkie's technique using melted crowns, I just love the rich colourings it gives. My daughter-in-law's birthday on Friday so I made it especially for her. Will be using this technique again soon...

Antique Wallpaper

Love this look, it is a Technique Junkie BG and you can check it out by following the button to that site. The stamp was in a box of discarded rubber stamps given to me, I so love her beauty!

We are off to a 70th birthday party tonight so have just finished this card... coloured with copics, covered cardboard 70 with gold embossing powder, added a dragonfly and three black studs (not too evenly).

Swing Card



My first attempt at making a swing card. The edge of the card is cuttlebugged, the BG a paper I loved and bought, sentiment on the back, so much fun to make.

Autumn Swap

This swap was for two A5 Autumn themed pieces of artwork. I used glossy card, stamped with versamark leaves, brayered in Kaleidacolor Creole Spice and then over stamped with the same stamppad and clear embossing powder.
