Back to work today (the day job that is) and I'm feeling it after the wonderful Easter break, but at least I've got my crafting to keep me sane 🙂 The stamp set I've used for today's card, Another Great Year, is ideal for male birthdays as well as female cards. The...
Hope that you're having a good, Good Friday 🙂 Time for this week's SUDSOL sketch challenge. This is the sketch this week: The sketch immediately reminded me of our Circle thinlit card and so that was my jumping off point for this: The Circle Card Thinlit (133480) was...
So far I've only made one of this monochrome card but I'm thinking of doing a bunch more in different sets of monochromatic colours and then popping them in a box as a gift set. What do you think? The card base is a small square of Wisteria Wonder, matted with Elegant...

I have a guest designer for you today. This was my hubby’s Mother's day card this year. As always, it’s all his own work, I just give him hints and tips for how to get the effect he wants. His card is modelled after the card in a box I made for Krista but scaled up to...
