Amazing Life St.Patrick's Day card


St.Patrick's Day is not that far away and I like to post a card
to my brother and his wife in England.
I kept it nice and simple which I know Tony will like.
St.Patrick's Day is traditionally the first spring cut for the garden,
we have our spring parade on St.Patrick's Day and it's usually
our first trip to Carlingford or Omeath of the year!!
And of course, we wear GREEN!

How I made my card:
1. Mat your card with olive green card stock.
2. Cut a whisper white mat to fit this.
3. Stamp out the 4 leaf clover stamp in olive green and then cut out
3 leaves with no stem and colour using blends.
4. Using a stem stamp (I used one from Varied Vases)
position the shamrocks along the bottom, don't stick down.
Stamp a stem to lead up to each shamrock.
5. When happy, stick the shamrocks in place.
6. Using a piece of Whisper White, draw a straight line
to line up your letters.
7. Start with the St.Patrick's Day first, leaving room above to add Happy.
8. Using old olive Stamp each letter, using the line to keep you straight.
9. Stamp the HAPPY using the first P as your centre letter,
again with a pencil line to keep you straight.
10. When dry, rub out your pencil lines.
11. Mat onto a piece of Old Olive card and add to your card.

Little Elephant Bundle baby card


We have had a new edition to the O'Hagan clan with the arrival
of a lovely baby girl called Fiadh!
This is my nephew's first little baby and it's so lovely to have a girl
as we tend to have lots of boys on our side!!
So of course, I had to make a cute little PINK card!

How I made my card:
1. Cut a white card base. Mat with petal pink card stock, rounding off the corners.
2. Mat this with a piece of spotty dsp from subtles 6 x 6 dsp.
Again round off the corners.
3. Cut a strip of whisper white to fit across the spotty dsp
and added another strip of the opposite pattern onto this strip.
4. Stamp and punch three elephants in two shapes of pink.
Stamp again and punch out the ears so you can 3d them.
5. adhere the two lighter pink elephants flat onto the middle border.
6. Add dimensionals to the 3rd elephant but stamp the little hearts
onto the border first before adding the elephant to card.
7. Stamp Congratulations in powder pink and punch with classic label punch.
8. Add to card using dimensionals.
9. Finish with 3 pearls.

Forever Lovely get well card

Have you been in our top 5?


I had a get well card to make for a friend and this is what I came up with.
I wasn't sure when I first chose the colour. I saw some tulips this colour when out walking the dog
 and I really liked the richness of the colour.


How I made my card:
1. Make the card using Fresh Fig card stock.
2. Cut a piece of whisper white to fit and stamp the leaves first, in Old Olive.
3. Now stamp the flowers in fresh fig over the top of your leaves.
This is much easier using the Stamparatus.
4. Stamp the sentiment in fresh fig ink.
5. Wrap a piece of fresh fig ribbon on left of card.
6. adhere it all to the card base.
7. Make a bow in matching ribbon and adhere to ribbon band.
8. Follow the same procedure inside, stamping top and bottom
and sentiment in middle.


Check out my product list below to see what I used for this card.
