Three little Butterflies

Hi there. Welcome back.

Today's card is a very colourful one. Its design is really in celebration of spring with its lovely butterflies and bright colours.



The colours used for the background were abandoned coral, spiced marmalade and pickled raspberry distress inks. The butterfly was stencilled on scrap paper, painted with peerless watercolour paints and then cut out with scissors.
It was then adhered to the card using double sided tape.

Hope you liked today's card and I look forward to having you back again...

100 days of Christmas Day 12

Hi there welcome back everyone to Day 12 of 100 days of christmas cards.

Todays card features one of my beary friends delivering a gift. This card is great for a little girl or teenager.

The stamp features crafter's companion beary merry christmas. Its a cute stamp easy to colour. Using nicholas peerless watercolour paints I painted the bear...I love the peerless paints. I then stamped the greeting in black and embossed a blue sheet of cardstock.

I added a blue ribbon to complete the look.


Hope you liked today's card and I look forward to seeing you back here tomorrow. Don't forget to leave a comment!

100 days of Christmas Cards Day 10

Hi there! Its Day 10. Here are some cozy Christmas wishes. Arent these two kittens absolutely adorable. These kittens are from the Inky Antics rubber stamps clear sets....

The stamps are fun to colour and add a playful aspect to your card. This kind of card can be given to someone you love dearly.. The poinsettias are great addition to the stamp. I painted these with peerless watercolour paints.. The die cut which was used came from a stitched slopes die set.

Using a brick wall embossing folder, I embossed a rectangular piece of red cardstock. I put the card together using double sided tape and of course some glitter. Oh how can I forget my little red bow.

Thanks for stopping by see you tomorrow and leave me a comment.

Bearing many gifts

Hi everyone! Welcome back...I hope everyone is in their own happy place because I am...doing what I love the best..tah dah..... making cards.

Day 2 of my 100 days of christmas ...I have come bearing gifts. Its a very bright and colourful card and at its centre is a bunch of gifts layered over each other.

The gift boxes stamp is one from the deep red cling stamps family. It features two gift boxes - one decorated with polka dots and the other with stripes, which I stamped on spare card stock, painted using peerless watercolour from the peerless water colour bonus pack of 40. I then 'fussy cut' the gift boxes images and laid them out on the card before I stuck them using glue and double sided tape.

Just a little heads up....I cut the watercolour sheets into small strips and laid them out on cardstock with their names written on the bottom as described on a blog or class I read or did...can't remember which but its a great suggestion. My fav colours are daffodil yellow, turquoise blue,chrome orange, alizarine red, gamboge yellow and grass green.

I added some glitter glue...you can use any one from your local art and craft store. The accent pieces on the bottom of the card is crafters companion green pearlescent card stock I bought years ago (just found a scrap of it so I used it...again some old with the new)and bazzill's gold foil card stock.

Its been a blast. Thank you for reading and see you tomorrow for the 3rd day of christmas.
