Handmade cards
I say this every time Mama Elephant come out with one of these sets, but I love the new Penguin’s Waddle stamp set. They are so great for practicing your colouring and you have a scene card created without much effort. I’m sharing this festive themed card over on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today! I started out with the…
I love the idea of your cards telling a story – a collection of ‘scenes’ if you like – and the comic book style is a great way of doing this. Today on the Seven Hills Crafts blog, I chose two jungle/safari sets from Lawn Fawn, Wild for You and Critters on the Savanna, to create an assortment of scenes….
I’m on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with this one layer winter scene featuring the Snow Friends stamp set from Mama Elephant’s latest release. I have really been into creating one layer scenes recently so I wanted to keep the design simple so the colouring would stand out. I started out by planning out my scene so I knew…
Hello. I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with a happy little gnome birthday card! This one kind of reminds me of Gnomeo and Juliet. I used a bunch of Lawn Fawn products and the Oh Gnome! and Big Scripty Words stamp sets to create this scene card. I started off by stamping out the gnomes, toadstools, flowers…

Hello, I’m back over on the Heffy Doodle blog today with a card I’ve been waiting to share with you for a while. One of my best friends got married earlier this month and I made this especially for her and her husband. There’s nothing like being able to customise a wedding card to match the bride and groom and…
Hello. I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with one of my favourite floral sets: Concord & 9th’s Grateful for Everything. I have used this set multiple times but never get bored of colouring or creating differently themed cards. Today, it’s a birthday card and I’ve paired it with the MFT Bitty Birthday Wishes set for a great…
Hello. I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with this big, bold and beautiful rose sympathy card featuring the Colorado Craft Company Big & Bold Sympathy Friendship Rose set. By now you know I’m all about the alcohol marker colouring, and this set is really fantastic for practising. I felt like this should be a no-line colouring card…
Hello, I’m back over on the Heffy Doodle blog today with this tooth fairy card featuring the Absotoothly Awesome stamp set. As soon as I saw this set I had this scene in mind, so this one is dedicated to Snow as a thank you for embellishing the idea! I started out by stamping two of the fairies, two crowns…
Hello. I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with a set of cards featuring the MFT Picture Perfect set. Combined with the Lawn Fawn Say Cheese, Again die, these cards are a great way to practice your alcohol marker colouring and put a smile on the recipient’s face! I started off by stamping out four of the images…
Hello. I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog with a card that’s a little more masculine. I needed a spaced themed card with a birthday greeting and I’ve never done a galaxy background with my alcohol markers before so I thought it was time to give it a try! I started out by stamping the spaceman and a bunch…
I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog again today. I love the Hey Honey set from Sugar Pea Designs and teamed with the MFT Meant to Bee set, I made a handful of different Bee-Day cards. I started out by stamping the bear, hive and bees the Hey Honey set in some MFT Extreme Black Ink onto some blending…
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?

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….
