Hi there. I had a fun post up on the Jane’s Doodles blog the other day. I used the Garden Friends stamp set and also a new one to the store, Read All About It.
The apple is nice and shiny thanks to some Glossy Accents.

It is my turn again at the Muse Card Club and I must admit that I really love how this card turned out.
I stamped the images from the Avery Elle set Petals and Stems in Luxe Memento pigment ink. Once dry, I went over the images with different shades of Prisacolor pencils to add some shading and depth. It took quite a while to get the desired blending, but it was quite therapeutic. I used a Derwent blending pencil to help blend the colours. Finally I fussy cut all the images out and then added them onto the card base with foam dimensionals.
Here are some of the guidelines if you are unfamiliar with how Muse works.

It’s time for another Tag You’re It! Challenge. Can’t believe we are up to number 6 already!
Here is this week’s lovely inspiration tag – made by Karin Åkesdotter.
I just HAD to include a butterfly as you know me, I love my butterflies. To add some sparkle, I created a glittery butterfly using some double sided adhesive and glitter.
The tag was from my scrap pile, but it was made by smooshing distress inks onto an acrylic block and then pressing it onto some water colour paper. I love this technique!
For more details on the challenge and the guidelines, go here.
Stamps: Mama Elephant Up and Away Stamp set
Card: Tim Holtz Distress Water color Card stock, Simon Says Stamp wood grain card stock

Hi there. Today I am very excited to be announcing that I am joining the Design Team at Jane’s Doodles. I have always been a big fan of Jane and her adorable stamps and I am honoured to be joining such a talented group of ladies.
Today we have a spotlight blog hop to highlight the latest 3 stamp sets that have been recently released into the store. You should have arrived from Jennifer McGuire’s blog who is guest designing with us.
First up I created a colourful cluster of flowers, that were coloured with Copics and then given a coating of Wink of Stella brush glitter pen.
Next I made a fun bookmark for my son, once again colouring with Copics. The apple is coated in Glossy Accents.
And finally I water coloured the Wise Owl with Distress ink and made a tag. On the back it says “This book belongs to…” I couldn’t resist the googly eyes.

I was really inspired by Laurie Willison’s card in the online card class Online Card Class – Stretch Your Stamps 2, on Day 10. Laurie’s clean and simple design really appealed to me, so I thought I would give it a try. My hubby’s comment was ‘that’s a classy card’, so it has the thumbs up from him too. Thanks for your inspiration Laurie. I used the Paper Smooches Reflections stamp set.
And while I had the same stamp set out, I thought I would do a slightly different version.
The sentiment is white card stock covered with the clear Wink of Stella glitter brush pen then I covered the whole thing in Glossy Accents.
Stamps: Paper Smooches Reflections stamp set, AnnaBelle Stamps Dotted Flowers stamp set (the Happy word on the first card)
Card: X-Press It Blending card, Hero Arts folded note cards – Punch
Ink: Hero Arts Pale Tomato ink
Other Supplies: MFT High Rise lower case alphabet letter dies, Cuttlebug, Hero Arts White embossing powder, Heat tool, Anti-Static pillow, Wink of Stella Glitter brush pen – clear, Glossy Accents, Tombow mono multi liquid adhesive

Hello. I’m up again at the Muse Card Club.
For my card, I wanted to incorporate two of my crafting ‘loves’, and they are stamping and die cutting. The background was stamped using the Mama Elephant Modern Borders stamp set, in a gorgeous array of summery colours 🙂 (For those of us in the Southern Hemisphere, it won’t be long until those long summer days will be with us again). The butterfly is a My Favorite Things die.
There are actually 3 vellum butterflies stacked on top of each other to add some interest and dimension.
Here are some of the guidelines if you are unfamiliar with how Muse works.
