life is better with friends

Hello!

It's Friday!! Yay! My youngest got sick again with the flu this time (high fever, coughing, runny/stuffy nose) and so I haven't gotten much work done which means this weekend I will be working (like I do every weekend so I don't know where I'm going with this! lol!)

Check out Ange's BRILLIANT and SWEET card! So much fun! Masking is one of my favourite techniques because you can create something like this! Ange used my Nuts About You and Seamus stamp sets.

Have a lovely weekend!!

blog spotting

Hello!

Hope all is well.

I spotted some JD projects over at the SRM blog. This first yummy treat bag uses my Life Is Good stamp set (the tag and heart stamps). What a sweet treat! :)

This next adorable card uses my Seamus stamp set.

Bye for now!

you're my cup of tea

Hi!

Hope all is well! :)

Popping in to share a card I made using my TEA-rrific stamp set.

I used my Graph'it markers to colour...do I even need to mention that every time??

I used my colourless blender #0000 to create some pattern on the cups.

with sympathy

Hello!

Hope all is well!

 I made this card a while back and forgot to share it. Very simple. I used my Roses stamp set.

I coloured with my Graph'it markers and used a SRM sticker for the sentiment.

Take care!

sunny smiles

Hello!

Hope all is well! :)

I'm sharing a card I created using my Suzi and Stripes and Dots stamp set.

I love my Stripes and Dots sets because you don't have to be precise with it. I had drew the stripes and dots so they're not perfect....I hate measuring, I eyeball everything. :)

I coloured with my Graph'it markers and did a no-line colouring which let me tell you....trying to colour her little stick legs and arms was a challenge!! lol! I used a SRM sticker for the sentiment! :)

celebrate

Hello and happy Friday!

I'm sharing a super FAB card by Miriam using my Cheers stamp set!

LOVE, LOVE and LOVE!

Love all the glossy, bubbly goodness! :)

JD blog spotting

Hello!

Hope all is well!

I've got two sick kids at home today from school and I just hope I don't get sick...I have way too much to do! 

I've blog spotted some gorgeous cards using JD stamps like this one using my Wise Owl stamp set which is back in stock! Yippie! :)

This gorgeous card has the sweet bee and flowers from my Boris the Bunny stamp set which is also available in my shop.

Take care!

I love you

Hello!

Hope all is well! :)

I've got an adorable tag by Marion using my Seamus stamp set! I just love the googly eyes! The sheep in the top left corner has got the crazy eyes! lol!

My stamps arrived yesterday (sooner than I thought) so I added some new sets and some old (like Wise Owl, Garden Friends, Food On The Go) to the shop.

New JD stamps - sneak peek!

Hello!

Hope all is well!

Well I'm still waiting for the problem in my shop to be resolved, I'm told they are working on it! It's so frustrating (the PayPal payment keeps turning off so you can't go through with your purchase so I keep checking and turning it back on).

Anyways I wanted to share some sneak peeks of new JD sets coming to the shop soon!

Look at that yummy glaze! :) I coloured with my Graph'it markers and added glossy accents for the glaze.

This next set might be familiar to some of you.

Remember this card I posted a while back. :)

I will be also adding two sets that I created for SRM. Little Miss Mia and Boris the Bunny aren't new but these 4x6 clear stamp sets are. Susan really loves Mia and Boris and asked me to create stamp sets with them.

I'll be adding these sets to the shop for pre-orders soon! :)

xo

you brighten my day

Hello!

Hope you all had a lovely weekend!

First I'd like to apologize about my shop, I've had some customers email me about having trouble going through with their purchase. For some reason the paypal setting in my shop keeps turning off....I am waiting for the problem to be fixed so in the mean time I have to keep checking and turning it back on. For this reason I am extending the 20% Off all clear stamps sale until tomorrow.

Mariana is starting off the week and this card has surely brightened up my day!! Mariana created the stripe background using my Stripes and Dots stamp set and the flower and sentiment is from my Daffodils stamp set.

Mariana heat embossed onto water colour paper and coloured with Faber Castell Gelato.

LOVE LOVE this card!!

you're my cup of tea

Hey!

It's Friday!! Yay! AND it's Valentine's weekend!! AND it's 20% off all clear stamps in my shop!

My TEArrific stamp set (which there are only a few more Croatian versions left) is a great set for Valentine's cards. 

For this card I coloured my stacked cups with Graph'it markers and then slathered some glossy accents all over! ;)

I added some glitter to the hearts.

Also I wanted to share this card and video by the amazingly talented Sandy Allnock.

I hope you have a lovely Valentine's weekend and spend some special time with the folks you love.

sale alert

Hey! :)

Giving ya'll a heads up on my weekend sale! It's Valentine's weekend so why no 20% off all clear stamps! Starts tomorrow!

For my cute little announcement I used my Read All About It and Suzi stamp sets. Coloured with Graph'it markers.

JD update + upcoming sale

Hello!

Hope all is well!

I'm sharing Ange's FAB card using my Stripes and Dots stamp sets. I love how she used the stripes!

The sentiment is from a stamp set that is discontinued. You'll notice that some stamp sets in the shop are half price because they will be discontinued (except for Warm Wishes...that's just on sale!). Since Judith stepped down I have been slowly making changes and still have more things to do. One of the things I'm doing is a little 'spring cleaning' in the shop. I have lots of new sets coming in the future. I just put in my order today.....I'll be adding two brand new sets to the shop as well as two sets that are available at SRM (Little Miss Mia and Boris the Bunny)....I am restocking some other sets like Wise Owl. I thank you once again for your patience. :)

Also I will have a sale this weekend so keep an eye out for that! :)

xo

I love you

Hello!

Hope all is well! :)

I just sent in some new stamp designs! Can't wait for the release. I will also be restocking!

Anyways...wanted to share this card I created using my Suzi, Doodle Flowers II and Stripes and Dots stamp sets. 

I created my background with one of the stripes from Stripes and Dots stamp set and I coloured with my Graph'it markers. The sentiment is from Doodle Flowers II.

ready for spring?!

Hello!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend!

Most of you know that you can find some of my stamps at SRM and when Susan asked if I would like to join the SRM DT I was delighted.  I think my stamps and SRM stickers work great together! :)

For my cards I used my Spring and Seamus stamp sets.

For more info pop on over to the SRM blog! :)

I did some masking and coloured with Graph'it markers.

thank you

Hi!

This is what I woke up to!!!

It snowed yesterday, all night and it seems there's no end which means I'm snowed in, kids will not be going to school today...one of the disadvantages (or advantages depending on who you're asking) of living on a hill! 

I instagramed this yesterday. I used my Doodle Flowers II stamp set.

I then used my Graph'it markers to colour and wanted to have a water colour effect. This is perfect for those who say they can't colour and blend. I took took shades of the same colour and took my lightest to colour the whole flowers, not worrying about colouring to the edges (you want to leave a little white). Then take the darker shade and go over the flower on certain areas...to make it look like water colours. Here are the colours I used:

5125, 5135, 8210, 8240, 6110, 6140, 4147, 4175, 1150, 1140, 0000

For the sentiment I used a SRM sticker.

for you

Hello!

I had some left overs from the card I made yesterday (which I shared on my blog) and it was big enough for me to die cut a tag and make a cute tag to go along with the card.

The stripes are from my Stripes and Dots stamp set. Fun and easy background to make. The squirrel is from my Nuts About You stamp set.

As always I used my Graph'it markers to colour. :)
