Hi there Today’s card is a CASE from a Christmas card I was given by one of my team members. I’ve done a slight modification so that I could get it out of a 6″ x 6″ piece of paper. I’m not sure what the name of this fold is but she called it a… Read More »
Hi there I’m a bit late posting tonight as we’ve been out to Piha. One of the guys from our US office is over at the moment so we went for a drive to show him the beautiful West Coast and the black sandy beach. Piha is one of my favourite spots in Auckland. As… Read More »
Hi there These next cards use the ‘donut’ paper with a fun sentiment stamp set – Birthday Wit – from the Occasions Catalogue. This photographic design is perfect with the words of the stamp. I got a bit carried away and ended up making four cards! I stamped the sentiment four times – Bermuda Bay,… Read More »
Hi there I’ve had heaps of fun creating cards using the photographic image papers in the Picture Perfect DSP pack. Today’s cards use the ‘candles’ paper. With one sheet of the DSP I was able to create two cards. The first card uses a piece of DSP 9.5cm x 13.8cm. I adhered a piece of… Read More »

Hi there A couple of weeks ago a family friend of ours celebrated his 60th birthday. ‘0’ birthdays are special ones and therefore require a special card. I’d seen a card created by Jackie Aitken (an Australian Demo) and I just had to CASE it. It uses the new Apron of Love Builder Framelits from… Read More »
Hi there I had a very productive weekend in the ‘Craft Department’ – it’s great when the creative juices flow! Our neighbours youngest turned 5 over the weekend and started school today – a good day was had :). He’s really into his Lego Ninjago but I couldn’t find any punch art examples to create… Read More »
Hi there For those of you in New Zealand I hope you have a relaxing and enjoyable long weekend. I started my Saturday by tidying my craft cupboard and desk – I’m not sure what happened but when I put everything back in the cupboard I ended up with a spare clean shelf! Looks like… Read More »
