It's my friend and downline Jan's birthday today. Happy Birthday Jan! She's such a talented crafter herself that it's a real challenge to try to make something special that she won't have seen before. I'm not sure whether this quite fits the bill but I hope so. I have...

Twitterpated Get Well Card
This little get well card uses a variety of items from the Twitterpated suite of products as well as the Bright Blossoms stamp set (W125495 or C125497). The Summer Mini Catalogue will finish in just over two weeks time, so if you want to be certain of getting any of...
Clean and simple daisies
Our Reason to Smile stamp set (FREE this month with a £60 purchase) is just perfect for using with so many different techniques, but they don't come much easier than this one. I've used a masking technique with the full flower outline stamp, to create this clean and...

Casing the team – no. 5
Today’s card is another CASE from my team swaps. Chrissi made this card with a small envelope that contains lavender on the front. I don't have any dried lavender for my envelope, so I decided to create a little message to go in mine and swap the Top Note die for a...
