I'm in the mood!



Today I am sharing my midway post for
where the theme is anything stamps with optional mood board


Remember we have some lovely prizes up for grabs,
so get your stamps out and come and join us!


For my card I have gone with the yellow colours and
the seaside photo.
I used the patchwork pieces dies for the background.
The centre piece and sentiments are from Circle Sayings bundle
and I have coloured them with blends.
I finished the inside with another sentiment and
a strip of the matching yellow papers.
I hope you get time to join us and if you need some inspiration
then head of to the challenge blog HERE.

Dress it up!


It's the second week of Sandie's theme
Sewing/Stitching or dressmaking at

I have used the patchwork pieces dies for my background
and then used some Nitwits downloads called Seams to me, to create the decoration.
I finished the card by stapling some bubble bath ribbon to the top.

I hope you get time to join in this week.

Sticky notes!



Happy Monday!

Today I am sharing a wee project I made to show off this
stamp set - TIME FOR TAGS which is the prize for
my August challenge over at Create with Pinky on FaceBook.
I am beginning to like this set so much I might change my mind 😂


I have made little matchbox type holders for some
sticky notes. Perfect for your handbag, back of your phone,
on your desk, back to school or by the phone etc etc.

I will have a tutorial for the bigger version of this next week.

Patchwork Pieces



For my VIP Group this week I used a new set of dies called
Patchwork Pieces dies along with Hey Chuck stamp set.
I loved using both these sets. They make such fun cards
to cheer up a persons day.
Great way to use up those scraps too as you just need two pieces
measuring 3 1/4" x 4 3/4".

Bit tired now though 😂
Busy weekend for hubby as he has golf tomorrow

Enjoy your weekend.

Purrfect Birthday


I am just dropping in to share a birthday card I
made for a family member who loves cats!

This stamp set is retired but will remain with me for
the two cat lovers in our family.
Are they not adorable!
I went with a slim card this time
to fit in with the challenge over at Try Stampin' on Tuesday.
I couldn't get the sketch to work for my design unfortunately.

At the dentist first thing today then a bit of shopping.
Very warm but no sunshine which is fine by me.
Have a great day!
