This is the start of an inspiration patch, where I hope that fellow scrappers and creators will come and find some inspiration, or even leave some inspiration for me.

Wedding Card - Scrapberry's and Docrafts/Papermania

Hello Everyone

A colleague at work asked me to make a card for a wedding that he is attending next month.
So I made a card to match the wedding invitation.

Here's the card.


I used the Scrapberry's Words Live Forever collection, along with some Papermania/Docrafts All Aboard bits and pieces and stamps.


I layered up quite a few papers and bits and then also added some stamping.


I coloured the chippie leaves with distress oxide and then gave it a spritz and then also added those vibrant little poppies.

I think it's a layered yet simple and elegant.

Thanks so much for popping in!
I really appreciate the visit!
Have a great day!

Thinking of You Card - BoBunny Stamps

Hello Everyone

I hope that you are having a good week!
I am back with a "Thinking of You" card today, which was created with a whole lot of BoBunny stamps.


I used distress inks and distress oxides to colour the card, flowers and leaves.
I also used BoBunny pearlescent to add dimension to the flower centres.


I love my stamps and I would not be able to create without them at all.
They are definitely a crafting staple.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
I really appreciate the visit!

The Call of the Wild - Mixed Media Layout - Paper House Productions

Hello Everyone

When my hubby was in the States a few months ago, he bought me some gorgeous papers and one pack was from Paper House productions, called Field Study.

I finally got to use it and created a page from our getaway in December.


I did a lot of fussy cutting and used quite a number of die-cuts too.


I used distress oxides to colour the chippies and then gave them the water treatment for that chalky and old effect.


As previously mentioned, I used some new die-cuts from Tattered Lace.  These are leafy die-cuts and they are going to become a firm favourite.


The design was a little challenging in the beginning because I wanted to work around that gorgeous bird image. I think it worked out okay in the end.

This paper collection is just perfect for an African bush sunset photo.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
I hope you have a fabulous day!

Kind And Tenderhearted Mixed Media Layout - Penelope Dee Victoria Collection

Hello Everyone

Today I have a mixed media page to share with you.  Wow, it has been ages since I last created a page. It really was so enjoyable and it turned out exactly as I wanted.
I used the fabulous Penelope Dee Victoria Collection.


This photo was taken a number of years ago, of my niece.  We were at the park and she was sitting at the end of the slide, very deep in thought.


I did a fair amount of fussy cutting and also used my favourite Sizzix die-cuts.




I used Penelope Dee stamps and stencils for the background too. I just adore that butterfly stamp.



I made use of my distress oxides too.  These are a staple for any of my projects! ;-)

Thanks so much for stopping by!
I really appreciate the love and comments!
Have a super day!

Birthday Card - BoBunny Stamps and Distress Oxides

Hello Everyone

My Mom turned 81 on Sunday and it really was such a lovely time, spent with the family and celebrating with her.

I made a card for her, using lots of BoBunny stamps and distress oxides.


I used a Martha Stewart punch to make the punched edges and coloured it with distress oxide.
In fact, the grassy bits were coloured with distress oxide too.


I used the gorgeous Dandelion stamp again too! ;-)

Sometimes one doesn't need too much just to make a pretty and elegant card.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a fabulous day!

Valentines Day Card - BoBunny

Hello Everyone

I hope you are enjoying the weekend.
I have been scrapping up a storm and it has been sooooo very good for my soul! ;-)

I created some cards a little while ago for Valentine's Day or just for love or sweetheart cards!

On this one I used some older BoBunny papers, which are still beautiful.


I used quite a few BoBunny stamps too, those dandelions are one of my favourites.
In fact, all the stamps are BoBunny and I stamped and fussy cut those hearts too.


Well we are off to a family lunch today, as it is my Moms Birthday! 81 Today.

I did make her a card and will share that with you tomorrow.

For now, enjoy your Sunday and have a super day!
Cheers for now!
