Pink & Pretty

 It's Pink and Pretty over at



I made this...


I found this lovely A Day for Daisies image in my digi folder so coloured her to match the Anna Marie Designs Pink Bliss paper pad. I also used another of the pretty doilies that I discovered lurking a while ago and also used some paper roses too. Ooh and I have a new toy, a pair of tearing rulers that I bought from Indigo Blu. I used them for the layers.They are brilliant and I've had such fun using them in journals and the like.  The sentiment was a magazine freebie from long ago.

There you go, pink and pretty!! I look forward to seeing what you make xx

Magical, Myths & Legends

 Ellie is in the driving seat at Allsorts this week and has chosen 

Magical, Myths and Legends as the optional theme.

I have made a halloween card for Mollie using some gorgeous slime green glitter card, some luscious purple matt card and a super cute image from The Stamp Fairy (sadly no longer in production), called Wizard Tommy who I coloured with Promarkers. The sentiment came from a Woodware stamp set and fitted the magical themed card perfectly.


I glittered up the goo in the cauldron and the bubbles.

It's lovely to see you today and I hope you have a good weekend.

Falling Leaves

 Hello everyone. Lynn has chosen the alternative to anything Goes theme at Allsorts this week

🍂Falling Leaves 🍂

My quest to use unloved stuff continues and this time I unearthed a Spellbinders die set and a Dutch Dubadoo cloud stencil.



I stencilled the linen effect card blank using tumbled glass DI. Used all the dies in the set and cut them out in good quality white card and then coloured them all with Promarkers. The Best Wishes stamp is from a Clearly Besotted sentiment set.

Out of my comfort zone but I really enjoyed making this.

Square or Not?

 Chrissy is the host at


and her chosen theme is 

Square or Not?

I am a square through and through. I LOVE symmetry so the square satisfies that need for order. In this case I have gone all out with the squares, using a lovely Papermania pad and many, many squares and a sequin or two to add a bit of shine.


I look forward to seeing what shaped card you favour and why.

While I am here I must apologise for the lack of visits to my crafting buddies this week. I have been struck down by the dreaded Covid and have been feeling really poorly. I promise that I will catch up with you all soon.

See you at the weekend xx

Anything Goes

 It's the 800th Challenge at Allsorts this week so it's a free for all with Anything Goes!!

I made a new baby card for a change. Once again I dipped into my stamp arsenal and found a lovely Hunkydory stamp set that I used to make this,



I stamped the boots on different coloured dotty paper, added a little bit of shade and cut them out. The sentiment is part of the set too. So effective yet really quick and simple.

See you soon xx
