Enjoying the Rain Birthday card (Cute as a Button image)


Hi Crafty Friends,

Does this weather look familiar hehe? Not here in Oz today, we have a beautiful 27 degree day, the sun is shining, Spring is well and truly here thank goodness!

What do you think of my new look blog? It has taken me most of the evening to try and figure it all out. I can't seem to make my blog posts white even though I have saved it as white! I have made the card photos a little smaller but click on the photo to enlarge it.

I loved colouring this sweet image from Cute as a Button called Enjoying the Rain. My sister didn't want this cloud paper so I happily took it as I thought it would go beautifully with the raining images I have. One person's trash is another person's treasure as they say hehe! Lucky me.

Fall is in the air card (PolkaDoodles image)


Hi Crafty Friends,

This is only the second time I have created a card using an image from Polkadoodles but I'm sure it won't be my last, I love their images! I have gone a little distressed/shabby chic on this card and also used one of my new dies - the little sign posts.

I have also used some olive green pearls and grass from my company, Flourish with a Bling who have a huge sale on (see below for details).

Candyland card (Cute as a Button image)


Hi Crafty Friends,

I hope you've missed me a little bit hehe. I have not posted much these past couple of months, life has just been so busy.

But now I have a few cards to show you starting with this one using a gorgeous image from Cute as a Button. Francesca draws the sweetest images don't you think? This one is called Candyland and after colouring the sweets with Copics I used some Glossy Accents.
