Dreamer of dreams


Hi again, everybody! My second card for today is for Addicted to CAS (Vellum), Time Out (Birds of a Feather Flock Together) and 613 Avenue Create (Anything Goes with optional twist of candy) - I've used candy colours.

The background was made with watercolour paints, with diecut vellum feathers, sequins and stamped sentiment.

Make A Wish



Hi everyone, I hope you're well! Here's a card I've made for a few challenges using the colours at Inkspirational (purple with grey/silver), The Paper Players (Gold/Silver) and the sketch at STAMPlorations.

I cut the tag twice, one from DP and one from vellum, diecut the sentiment banner and circle with hole-punched centre, and added the little mouse and silver stars.

Thanks for stopping by today and for your lovely comments. xxx

A little garden ...


"A little garden in which to walk,
and immensity in which to dream"

Hi everyone, this is my second card today, inspired by the Colour Me challenge. Calypso Coral is one of my favourite SU! colours.

The background was made by brushing colour on, the diecuts are Memory Box Madison Window, branch and bird, and leaves and sentiment stamped.

Also linking up to House of Cards - Punches or a die or both, and a second entry for Make My Monday - Diecuts and/or punches.

Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely weekend xx


After every storm ...


"After every storm the sun will smile"

Hi everyone, happy Friday! I hope you're well.

I've made my card today using the colours at Card Concept (Clean and Layered), with inspiration from the layout of this week's Muse card. 

I don't make Halloween cards so I used the fun Sunbeams stamp set by CAS-ual Fridays, having happily won a discount voucher for their store.

The sun was stamped with SU! Pumpkin Pie, then stamped the sentiment and attached it to two strips of torn vellum.

Also linking up for a second entry at the fabulous Time Out challenge (Use Stamping).

Thank you for visiting my blog today and for your lovely comments, so very much appreciated. xx

Addicted to Stamps and More #115 - Photo Inspiration


Hello everyone, I hope you're having a good week . It's time to start a new challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More and this week we have a beautiful seasonal photo as our inspiration. 

Our generous sponsor is StampArt Design who will be awarding a prize of 5 digis from their store to this week's winner.


For my DT card, I brushed distress inks onto the background and spattered with water, cut a hexagon aperture and some diecut leaves which I coloured with various distress inks and stamped the sentiment.

I'm sure you will agree, there's so much inspiration to take from this week's photo and we look forward to seeing your fabulous creations. Don't forget to pop over to the ATSM challenge blog to see inspiration from the DT.
