Banner for Hailey


I made this banner for my friends little girl with card and patterned paper using the Stampin' Up banner die. I embellished with buttons. I love the colour scheme and particularly the paper with the scooters on - so cute!

Box set of Gorjuss cards


I Made this boxed set of cards as a gift for my beautiful Mum. I used stamps from the Gorjuss range, coloured with copics. 


For the box I used a lovely wooden heart bead as an embellishment







     In the card below I coloured the heart pins using copics to match the colour scheme of the card




 I used tiny pearls to embellish the delicate flowers on the paper in the card below. I love butterflies so this is one of my favourites




 I love the way the unusual colour scheme worked out in the card below


Its hard to see in this photo, but I had embossed the red card with Stampin Up's 'Letterpress Lots of Love' die which created a lovely effect which worked perfectly with the sentiment.

Magnolia ballet project


I made this for my niece who loves dancing and ballet. The Magnolia stamp is so pretty. I coloured using copics, and I used pearls and ribbon for an extra girly finish.

Laundry Bag


I made this laundry bag for my niece Marin and a matching banner to hang in her bedroom. I can't seem to find my photo's of the banner which is a shame. I just love the fabric. A lady in Spotlight told my that owls are 'the new black'! *smile* They do seem to be popping up everywhere. I lined the bag in plain navy blue fabric and added the wooden beads to the cording for a bit of extra detail. For the banner I incorporated more of the coral colour...I will try to get photos!

One stamp...3 cards



As you know, this 'Waiting' stamp by Gorjuss is one of my faves. Here I produced 3 cards using the same stamp but different colour schemes. I love the flocked paper I found for the purple, blue and beige  one and the velvet ribbon complimented it perfectly.



I Love the the new Stampin' Up In Color designer series paper seen here in Calypso Coral - such a beautiful colour!



Did you know that in colour therapy green is considered the colour of love? Maybe that's why its my favourite colour...

Hang me up to dry



This stamp by Gorjuss is called 'Hang me up to dry'. Its one of my all time favourites and I have a feeling I'm going to be using it a lot.

Lovely La-La Land stamp

I made these two cards using the La-La Land Winter Marci stamp. Isn't she cute? Images were coloured using copics. I love the heart brads in the gorgeous candy colours. 







I sent the card below to my friend Jackie in England and she loved it! 





Rainy days can be gorjuss too!

Sorry for the delay in posting, I'm still new to the world of blogging! 
I just love this Gorjuss stamp. I coloured it using Copics and then embellished with some raindrops and splashes that I've had in my crafting stash for years. I knew one day i'd find the perfect use for them.
