Get Well for a Friend

 A friend of mine was recently unwell so what better way to let her know I was thinking of her. It’s a simple card but sometimes that’s the best type

Fast and fabulous

I think this might be my go to guys design this year although most of the cars will have more colour, this persons favourite colour is white so it’s not the most inspiring variation lol.

That sketch with a twist

I saw this layout online and thought it looked cool so of course I had to make a card straight away, sometimes that happens although not often lol. Another of the cute Amanda Jane images, these are such a joy to colour so expect lots more.

Flying High again

I wish I had used this plane on the other card but I suppose there is always next year lol. This is from a very old creative stamping magazine, it’s still my favourite crafty magazine but it seems more difficult to get hold of now.

Flying high

Not my favourite card but I was in a time crunch, kind of wish I had used a different stamp but there is always next time

Bee Happy

I love the bees from clearly besotted, I have so many of them but the coffee set was a must have, so now I’m asking myself why I haven’t made more of them lol.

Mini Make-up

This is the first version of this card I made, of course it’s the perfect set for girlie girls so I have made more and as usual I tweaked it as I went.

I do love that clearly besotted sets have the background image included as standard, makes it so simple to turn into a card.

Hockey Gnome

This was a very different type of card for me but I will say I loved making it, it’s a lot of layers but the instructions make it so easy and clear. I might have to make more.

Graduation a la mode

My friends daughter just had her graduation and I couldn’t not send a card, I used an old a la mode from MFT, these stamps were what drew me to MFT and I still can’t believe they are gone.

Gamer boy

My friends little boy got a switch for Christmas so of course I had to use the digital pencil boy and the switch die to make his card, they recently moved and it does feel weird him not being next door, I hadn’t realised how much I would miss him chatting underneath my lounge window 

Bingo Buddies 2

Another bingo buddies birthday and this lady loves knitting so I remembered this old stamping Bella and then I went on a knitting search and found an embossing folder and a frame that both work, I have enjoyed using older stuff too, will it stop me buying though, probably not lol

Bingo Buddies

I have recently been attending bingo on a Wednesday afternoon with a group of friends I made at Sunday night bingo and it’s been a blast, I have been winning too but ultimately it’s the company and laughter I enjoy, the bingo is a side not a main lol.

It was one of their birthdays so I had to make a card, this person loves rainbows and I just happened to have this image already coloured ready to go, I do like this simple design, no fuss but still effective.

Birthday Bear

I made this card last year and I used one of the delightful images from Amanda Jane Designs, I love colouring these digi stamps, the rest of the design was fairly simple as I wanted the image to be the star of the show. I do think I will recreating this layout again as I really enjoyed making this one.

I’m back baby

I can not believe it’s February and I haven’t posted since New Year’s Eve!!! I wish there was a reason but it’s just been an incredibly busy month and so far February doesn’t feel any quieter lol.

I have been making, quietly and with less mojo than I hoped so you will notice a theme, lots of revisited designs and batch making. 

This card however is not a direct revisit more a variation on a theme, I used the Kristina Werner merry for Christmas cards so I thought what if I did the same but different with the birthday set. I had to use an older clearly besotted image too and there you have it my first card of 2026.
