Handmade cards
I’m back today with a fun underwater scene card combining two Lawn Fawn stamp sets: Duh Nuh and You Are Sublime. An extra layer of acetate makes it more tank-like! I started out by stamping the characters from both sets in some MFT Extreme Black ink onto some blending cardstock. I then coloured them in with my alcohol markers, keeping to bright greens, oranges and…
I have a series of cards today that were prompted by my ever-growing patterned paper stash. Making multiple variations of a simple design like this one can definitely help reduce the stash and gain you a stash of thank you cards. The Concord & 9th Big Thanks die is a perfect centre piece. I chose one of the gorgeous papers from the Simple…

One of the bonuses of having a sort out of your stamps is that you find some older sets that perhaps you didn’t get quite as much use out of them that you should. My friend Lesley Oman (owner of Heffy Doodle and HungryHeffy) often plays Stamp Roulette to give the muse a few prompts with some unusual combinations. Now…
Hello! I’m over on the Heffy Doodle blog today with this watercoloured, underwater scene card featuring the Oceans of Love stamp set. Imagine walking through one of those tunnels in the aquarium and all the fish are swimming around you – that was what I was aiming for! I started out by stamping all the ocean creatures from the Oceans…
Easter is just a bunny’s hop away (hehe) so my card today on the Seven Hills Crafts blog is full of bunnies! These Mama Elephant sets feature quite a bit in my card designs as they are perfect for practicing your colouring, and this Bunny’s Hop set is perfect for this time of year. I started out by stamping this…

Hello, all. Spring is definitely in the air here and it’s getting close to Easter so my card today over on the Seven Hills Crafts blog is inspired by some cute little bunnies from the Lawn Fawn Some Bunny stamp set. It’s not quite the right time of year here to be harvesting carrots, but that doesn’t stop these little…
My card today over on the Seven Hills Crafts blog is inspired by those fun-loving dragons from a rocky town called Berk! I love these cute little dragons from the Mama Elephant sets Me and My Dragon and Dragon Wishes. I stamped this family of dragons out with some MFT Extreme Black Ink onto some blending cardstock. I actually only…
Hello, happy Wednesday! I’m back over on the Seven Hills Crafts blog with this bright and foxy card featuring the Waffle Flower Be Her stamp set.

It’s a Rawrsome party today over on the Seven Hills Crafts blog! I love this new Rawrsome stamp set from Lawn Fawn and these cute little dinos are having a party!

I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with this cute little ‘sorry I forgot your birthday’ gnome card featuring the new Lawn Fawn ‘Oh Gnome!’ set. I have a couple of friends who love gnomes and have their birthdays within a few days of each other, so I’m preparing in advance to forget to send them a card!…
Happy Wednesday! I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog again today with this cute little birthday scene card featuring the Wild Ones stamp set from Neat & Tangled and a couple of Lawn Fawn and MFT products.
