Happy Mothers Day


Hi everyone,
Apologies for the late blog about Mothers Day. Unfortunately I forgot to take a photo of the card that I had made for my Mum and had to wait for her to open it and send me a picture!
It was made using the Botanical Builder Framelit dies. Turquoise is Mums favourite colour so that was the predominant colour. I think the flowers look fabulous with the silver contrast, what do you think?
Apologies for the quality of the photos.
That's all for now. I will have some news about a new & improved blog so watch this space!

A smorgasbord of my work.

Hi everyone,
I'm registered for Telford for the UK OnStage event in April, woohoo. It will be great to meet more demonstrators and see what new products will be coming soon.
Today I'm sharing with you a mix of cards and 3D items, all using Stampin' Up! Products, created by me. 
These were made using the Garden in Bloom in Melon Mambo and Pear Pizzaz as background and the sentiment is from Cottage Greetings. The second card uses the same stamp set, this time in Blushing Bride and Mint Macaron onto a turquoise card base with the pool party glitter ribbon from the Spring/Summer 2016 catalogue, I just love it. The circle and sentiment are from  the You're So Lovely stamp, also in the SS 2016 catalogue. Despite the backgrounds being the same stamp don't they look so different? Which one do you like better?
This was for a male18th Birthday, and went down very well I'm pleased to say.
My 3D items are the birthday card for one of my granddaughters which she absolutely loved and has
kept. The bag is a 'one sheet' bag, (12x12Designer Series Paper). I gave a family member their birthday present in a similar one, they are so versatile.

Finally, the scrapbook layout I have chosen is a New Year one. I hope you like my work, please feel free to leave a comment below. I would love to know which colours you prefer from the first two cards.
