Peaky Blinders

Robertos rascals sets just can’t be beaten, they are so cheeky they can’t help but make you smile. I can’t believe that I haven’t posted these cards on here, I just finished making these peoples cards for 2022 and realised I hadn’t shown 2021 lol.

I went with a tried and tested design and I love the way they turned out. What made me realise I hadn’t shown them was seeing the top card in my friends office when I popped round, I was surprised that he had kept it let alone have it on display. I am struggling with crafting at the moment and that did make me think that maybe it’s not just about making me happy, if it brings a smile to someone else’s lips then it’s worth it.

Jamie’s New Job

I really love the style of these images from Kraftin Kimmie, I bought several sets a few years ago and I still haven’t used them all. Seeing this card again makes me want to go make cards with them all lol.

It’s a very clean and simple card which seems to be the only kind I can make at the moment, I don’t know about anyone else but life seems to be so hard at present that it’s sucking my creativity, I wish I could say it will get better but the world keeps conspiring against that. I just keep plodding along and enjoying the bright spots along the way.

Darts Anyone?

Does anyone else get obsessed with a die, or card style and that’s all they can make. I’m hoping I’m not alone in this lol.

I made this card at the same time as the one I made for my other uncle with the recliner. I’m still trying to make multi cards in a sitting and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. 

I have no idea what was used to make this except the image was “just inklined” I wish you could still get their stuff it was so fab.

Campervan obsessed version 2

This is almost identical to the version I made for my hubbie, the main difference is the colour of the van, not sure which one I prefer.


Ingredients the same as the last one lol

Campervan obsessed version 1

My hubbie has wanted a campervan the entire time we have been together but as yet we haven’t bought one, but never say never lol.

Whenever I see anything campervan related, mugs, glasses, T-shirts, stamps I have to buy them lol. This stamp is a very, very old one though and it came out better than I expected.
