Fimo Jewellery



I have made this necklace set for a friend of mines challenge blog (Sarah, Tiggertastic).
I only had red and white fimo so blended the two to get different shades of pink for the pendant and beads (I like pink hee hee). I then stamped an image into the pendant just with a rubber stamp flower I had and it turned out really well.
This is the first time I have ever used fimo and even made my own beads and I was really lucky it all turned out OK first time.
I've used pink cord and crimps to put the necklace together.

Sarah Kay Notebook


I really love this Sarah Kay image - so instead of putting it on a card this time I decided to decorate a notebook.

A bright and cheerful spring card for Mothers Day. I have used a Margaret Sherry stamp and my cuttlebug to make this card. This card was made from a sketch I did for myself!

Lady & Wolf


I bought a CD from Create & Craft TV called Beauty & Beasts. It is made by the Glitter Girls and it has the most beautiful images of ladies and different animals from different parts of the world. You just print out the images and decoupage them. I think they are stunning to work with and here is my first card.

Valentine Card from my Son


Here is a Valentine card I got from my son Brandon who is now nearly 3. He made it in nursery and its the sweetest valentine I have ever had in my life - isn't it gorgeous?

Painterly Flowers Card


This card is made with some flowers that I found by Prima called Painterly flowers - I like them a lot and decided to make a card just really featuring them. I have used basic grey papers, inked around the edges of them all. I put the paper that the flowers are on through my cuttlebug using stylized flowers embossing folder.

Toadily Happy Card


I bought a set of Penny Black clear stamps called toadily happy. It has really sweet and cute images of toads on it. This is one of the images I used for this card. I also used Papermania and Basic Grey paper and Prima Painterly flowers (which I'm really loving at the moment). I have inked around the papers and images.
Apologies for this picture being blurry but I have tried to take a pic of this card several times and they all keep coming out blurry but my other cards have photographed fine - can't explain it i'm afraid but at least you get a basic idea of what the card looks like (I hope)!

Forever Friends Cousin Card


I made this card on behalf of my son for his Cousin Janelle. It is a forever friends rubber stamped which I coloured in with watercolour pencils. The backing paper was a freebie from a crafting magazine.

Fairy Card for Janelle



Janelle is my little Niece and I used a Lili of the Valley decoupage design to do this, plus backing paper also by Lili of the Valley. After cutting out and before layering, I added some stickles glue to her wings and antennas. I have done some inking on the edges of the papers to give it more depth. I've also used gem stones on the flowers and in the on the corners of the design, finished off with a burgandy bow!

Grandad Birthday Card


I made this very cute little card on behalf of my son Brandon for my dad. It is a Magnolia stamp (I just love this owl), I have used inking, watercolour pencils and basic grey papers.

Dad Birthday Card


This is a card I made for my dad's birthday. I made the letters myself by making templates from Microsoft Word. I then cut the letters from Prima paper and used Basic Grey for the background. I have inked around the edges of the letters and used rub ons and rubber stamping on the letters themselves, plus i've added some ribbon too. Hope my dad likes this!

Here kitty kitty - put your cursor on him and he will purr and meow !
