Baby Girl Card

A baby girl card, just like the baby boy card I made, using pink pearlised card for the base, and papers from the Bobbin The Bear CD by Debbi Moore.

New Home Card

A card I made for some friends who have just moved house.

All papers apart from the birdhouse are from Funky Hand's Spring Has Sprung download, the birds, birdhouse, flowers and branches are all die cut.

The birdhouse was cut from bazzill card and recycled packaging.

I attached the flowers with Doodle Bug crushed velvet brads, added brown raffia and doodled round the edge of the card with a Sakura pen.

Moon Girl Birthday Card

A birthday card for a friend who loves dragonflies, using Moon Girl by Stampotique. I was inspired to use Moon Girl after first seeing her on Sam's blog, and I'll be using her a lot I'm sure :-)


I stamped Moon Girl onto pink card and glittered her wings. The background is card from a box of hyacinth bulbs, embossed with the Cuttlebug birds & swirls folder. The branch and dragonfly are die cut and the flowers are punched with sticky gems in the centre. The flower is from a bunch of fabric flowers.

Birds & Flowers

I made this card using the lovely free papers and stamp from Simply Cards & Papercraft magazine.


I stamped the birds onto the spotty paper and cut it out using a Spellbinders die, and matted onto a larger die cut scalloped oval.

Cross Stitch Reindeer Card

The pattern for the reindeer is from Scandinavian Cross Stitch Designs by Jana Hauschild Lindberg. I stitched the reindeer on 14 count rustico aida fabric and attached it to a piece of card slightly smaller than the fabric with brads, and then fixed it to the background with foam tape.

I made the background by stamping a small snowflake on some speckle card with brown ink, and stuck this onto a kraft card blank. To finish it off I tied brown satin holly ribbon along the side.
