I hope that you are enjoying the sunshine where you are? It’s been absolutely glorious here over the last couple of days – which is nothing short of miraculous with it being the school holidays!!
Both of today’s cards use cute flower embellishments which I’ve made by cutting notches into punched out circles, and then doodling a line round the edge – super easy but super effective, LOVE them
Check out the sunshine in these photos!


Supplies used:
Kraft cardstock, Cosmo Cricket Lil Man paper crafting kit, 1 1/2″ and 1 1/4″ circle punches, black journalling pen, various Basic Grey buttons, Fiskars Apron Lace edge punch, American Crafts Thickers Regards Geyser, Personal Impressions Wording Stamp Set, Memento Rhubarb Stalk ink

I love glitter
And more particularly, I love these Thickers – they are just soooooo glittery – they are begging to be the star of any card or layout. This is a card I made for my dd whose birthday it was last week – it’s looking a little dunkled round the edges as I didn’t get to take a photo before giving it to her! I love putting kid’s names on their cards – it always makes them happy (especially those with unusual names!)

I don’t normally use stickers much but these new Pepper & Friends ones are so lovely and very easy to work with (they are on cardstock so don’t bend around all over the place – can you can move them (carefully!) if it doesn’t quite go right the first time)

Supplies used: Pepper & Friends 8×8 Designer Paper, Coredinations Gemstones 12×12 cardstock, plain white card, Trimcraft ivory satin ribbon, American Crafts Thickers – Sprinkles Lavender, Dovecraft Sentiments Clear Stamps, SU! Nearly Navy Ink, Pepper & Friends Buds and Butterflies stickers.
Talking of things that make me smile, call me a geek but this card had me rolling on the floor laughing – genius!
Happy crafting
