Hi There Crafty Friends, I'm on Holiday from work this week, so I am planning to do all those crafty jobs I need to sort.  Today, was the turn of coloured craft stock. Sorting in to plastic files and labelling colour and brand. It took far longer than I had first thought. at least 60 different shades, including company's as, Lawn Fawn, Gina K, and Bazzill. Not to mention, Tonic, Doddlebug,The Paper box, and Only God knows where. Purging seemed to be the only way I can run more, of a professional operation her from the box room. Well enough...

Hey lovelies!Sharing another love themed card this week, this time I'm sharing my love for coffee with you using the Altenew "Coffee With A Splash" stamp set! This style is way out of my comfort zone as I'm familiar with using cutesy images on my card, it's always good to dust off the cobwebs and dive in to something a little different!

I used Vintage Photo...

Hello lovelies, Happy New Year!I hope you've all had a fantastic time over the holidays and you're settling in to 2019 quite nicely, today I wanted to share a friendship card and some matching tags I've made using the Mama Elephant "Heart In Bloom" stamp set! How beautiful is this floral stamp? I'm positively in love with it!

I stamped the images using Memento Tuxedo Black ink, coloured them with alcohol markers and used a white gel pen to add highlights. I wasn't sure which of the images I wanted to use just yet, so I fussy cut a bunch of them out so I could just grab the ones I wanted when it came to assembling my card! The others can be saved for future projects....

I stamped my images using Memento Tuxedo Black ink, coloured them using my alcohol markers and fussy cut them out. I added some white highlights and details using a white gel pen. I cut a scalloped panel using the Mama Elephant "Framed Tags" Waverly Creative Cuts and stamped...
