Thinking Of You

 Hi everyone!

It's gonna be very hot today, we're already starting to melt! Perfect day to sit and colour I say. Anyhoo, I made this card for Dad-in-law for Father's Day last week and I really enjoyed colouring this stamp in. I decided to make the bird look like a Blue Tit as they're so pretty with their blue, yellow and green colours.

Father's Day Fuchsias

 Hello everyone

I bought my Dad a fuchsia hanging basket for Father's Day so I thought I'd do that theme for his card too. I don't do many flower themed cards but I really enjoyed this one so I think you may be seeing a few more in the future.

Yappy Birthday

 Hi everyone!

Yet another gorgeous summers day today! Perfect for frisbee throwing lol! 

It was ma boy's 12th birthday the other week and this is the card I made him. The background was a bit of an experiment which I ended up liking. I blended some inks on the paper by smooshing the ink onto my glass media mat, spritzing with water and dabbing the paper into it, then when it was dry I sponged some white gouache paint on top with a watercolour sponge.

 Afternoon everyone!

Boy is it a hot one out there today! Perfect excuse to stay in and craft I say! Lol! Anyhoo, I made this card for my brother's birthday and just realised it looks like this little guy is floating in the air, should've done some grass at the bottom ha! Nevermind, that's what happens when you make it last minute!
