Forever Friend Christmas card


I used promarkers to colour this Forever Friends stamp which came free with Creativity magazine. I have used the holly embossing folder from cuttlebug as I like to include some embossing on my cards.
The bear was coloured using oatmeal, apricot and vanilla pens.

White Christmas Card

Ive used the white on white design from the Penny Black Saturday Challenge. This challenge was from a couple of weeks ago but I liked this idea and finally got round to making a card using it.

First 2009 Christmas Card


This is the first Christmas card Ive made this year. Little Snowy was coloured using the Contemporary Christmas pack of Promarkers. Its the first time Ive used Promarkers at home so I was a little worried I wouldnt do the pens or image justice.

This is the card Ive made for my fiancee. His favourite colours are purple and blue so Ive used these on the card and combined them with the most boy-friendly Penny Black Hedgie stamp I have. The image was coloured using whispers pens. The bottom right hand corner has three small tiles purple, blue and silver in colour.

Black and red square birthday card


I like this layout so much Ive used it again. I like the contrast between black and a bright colour such as red. I used a Penny Black stamp and coloured it with Whispers pens.

30th birthday card - blue


Here is the card I made for my friends 30th birthday the other week. Her favourite colour is blue so I thought this card layout worked well.

New blog

After much persuasion and with having free time now Ive managed to start my own crafting blog. It may take some time to get to grips with the whole thing so dont expect too much to happen for a while.
