Hi there Just a quick post before I head off babysitting (and prepping for my team swap). Here are the two cards we made last week at my card class. This months theme was Father’s Day (which is Sunday 7th September here in NZ) and a card for a teenager. I saw a card using… Read More »
Hi there I had fun the other weekend trying out the new Decorative Masks along with three other new products. This is my first attempt using the Stars mask. You get two masks in a pack – Hearts & Stars or Dots and Stripes for just $5.95 a pack. For this card I used a… Read More »
Hi there Here’s a card I made a couple of months ago and forgot to share. It uses one of my favourite colours – Bermuda Bay. This card is made using the Thinlits Circle Card die. It’s a great die as you can make it a standard size or like this one – extended. You… Read More »
Hi there This is a card I made for a friend who had her birthday back in March and I’m only just now getting round to bloging it – how bad is that! Her favourite colour combo is black and white (or vanilla in this case) and my favourite colour is yellow – so I… Read More »
Hi there Just a quick post tonight. It was my niece’s 18th birthday last Sunday and here is the card I made for her. It’s a CASE from Sandi McIvor although I’ve used Flowering Flourishes instead of Everything Eleanor. I even remembered to photograph the inside this time! I LOVE the new In-Colours ribbon. It’s nice and… Read More »
Hi there Here’s another card and gift I made last month using the now retired Retro Fresh DSP along with the Hexagon Hive Thinlit which has carried over :).

Hi there Finally getting round to blogging a card and gift box I made back in April! Never mind – better late than never. I saw this card on Lynn Weiss’s blog and fell in love with the monochromatic colour scheme she has used – I have CASE’d it exactly as she had designed it. The Hardwood… Read More »
Hi there As promised here is the second card we made at this months class. It’s another birthday card that could be used for males of any age. The Birthday Basics designer paper is perfect for creating these candles. I chose the party hats, numbers and balloon paper to create my candles. I cut my… Read More »
Hi there Yesterday my brother turned 50!! – I can’t believe he’s that old. He is the best brother and I love him dearly even though he was a real tease when I was little. Last night we celebrated his birthday with a lovely roast dinner at their house followed by watching a nerve racking… Read More »
Hi there I’ve had an ‘indoors’ weekend this weekend as I have got my first winter head cold! It has however meant I’ve had time to clean my craft space in anticipation of the new catalogue arriving. Not too many more weeks. This afternoon I managed some craft time as I needed to make a… Read More »

Hi there I’m out babysitting tonight and thought I’d try and get a blog post in – much to the disgust of Bella the cat. If I’m on the computer it means she can’t get a tickle! Never mind on with the post. Here is a card and gift I made last month for a… Read More »
Hi there I know – two posts in a row! The last 5 weeks or so have been rather hectic in our house to say the least BUT hopefully things are going to get back to normal soon. Our rental is almost ready to let and we have finally got a date for Phil’s operation… Read More »
