Handmade cards
I’m back again on the Heffy Doodle blog with some galactic apologies for missing a birthday! What better way to say sorry than from outer space? Plus, this little alien guy is one of my most favourite HD characters! I used a couple of products from the latest release, the You’re Weird stamp set and the coordinating dies, the Spaced…
Hello, I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with a wedding card featuring the Colorado Craft Company Lovely Legs Happy Forevering stamp set. I haven’t used my coloured pencils for a while so this card was a perfect time to bring them out! These stamps have a lot of detail in terms of shading so are perfect to…
I’m on the Heffy Doodle blog today with a fairy-themed appreciation card. What better way to say thank you than with a pun and a couple of tooth fairies? This card uses several products from the latest release: Absotoothly Awesome stamps and coordinating dies, Silver Linings Cloud Border Dies, Twinkle Twinkle Stencil and Spaced Out stamp set and coordinating dies….
I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog with a trio of get well soon cards, featuring the Get Well Soon Before ‘n After stamp set from Lawn Fawn. I have used the smaller stamps and some rainbow patterned papers from Lawn Fawn and Simple Stories to create some bright and cheery greetings! I started by stamping out the turtle,…
I’m on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with a cute little bunny birthday celebration! This uses three different sets – Starry Scene, We Herd and Essential Sentiments – from three different companies – Avery Elle, Waffle Flower and My Favorite Things – and was partly inspired by this set of cards from Yainea. It’s such a great and simple…
I’m back again on the Heffy Doodle blog, sharing more galactic inspiration with the new release! Since I saw the big moon from the You’re Weird stamp set, this card has been screaming to be made! Paired with the astronauts and planets from the Spaced Out set, this scene came together fast. I started out with an A6 watercolour background…
Hello, I’m back again today over on the Seven Hills Crafts blog with a couple of my favourite Neat & Tangled sets. I was saddened to see the Oh Deer set is being retired, so be quick if you want it! I used this and the Lumberjack Love set to create these set of cards for belated birthday greetings. I…
One thing I have never done is purchase pre-cut card bases. They’re always the wrong size, colour, shape, weight, texture… etc. I like a nice and sturdy base (usually 300gsm) that will hold it’s shape when you stand it up and hold up when you start adding panels and layers upon layers of foam tape. Making your own card bases…
Hello, I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog again today for my usual weekly slot. I have a bright birthday card featuring the Avery Elle Peek-a-Boo Summer Pals set. Perfect for our recent summery weather! I started by stamping out the toucan, frog and flamingo (and their coordinating arms/legs/wings!) from the set with some MFT Extreme Black ink onto some blending…
Hello! I’m over on the Heffy Doodle blog today, showcasing some of the new products from the latest release.

Hello, crafters! Today I’m featuring the Mama Elephant Wild Roar stamp set over on the Seven Hills Crafts blog. You all know I love these sets for practicing my alcohol marker colouring and, whilst they make take a while to finish, you have a feature piece to put straight on the centre of a card. It’s a good way to get…
Hello and happy Monday! It’s a good start to the week because the new Heffy Doodle release is coming soon! My card today features my most favourite character from the new release – the one eyed alien from the You’re Weird set. You know the aliens in Toy Story? This card was definitely inspired by them! I started out by…
I had three requirements for today’s card on the SHC Blog: 1) bright colours, 2) can be sent to a boy or a girl, and 3) it had to use the Concord & 9th Monster Love set. This one’s been sitting in my stash for a little while and it’s too cute to stay there! I started out by stamping…
Today on the SHC blog I have a project that extends the use of your stamps. The Avery Elle Love Is In the Air stamp set is very love/Valentines themed, so I challenged myself to make a birthday card. Paired with the Concord & 9th Simple Serif Alphabet Dies, I think I achieved a card that could even be masculine! I started…
