for you!

  Hi there Today I would like to continue sharing the new

 "A Beautiful Day" releases by 

Stacey Yacula Studio for Purple Onion Designs.

I also have some very exciting news I just had to share with you all....I have been asked to be on the Purple Onions Design Team.. OMG ...you can't believe how excited I am. I am joining some extremely talented girls.

Thank-you Michelle for giving me the opportunity to play.

Today's card features Robin ( stamped twice ) ) and Blossoming Branch. 

I also stamped up one of my favourite stamps from Stacey Yacula called Tucker( snail) 

The sentiment is from the new collection- I only stamped a part of the sentiment.

I just love these gorgeous images that I just can't stop creating with them, they are just so darn cute.

With this release there are 39 stamps total being released (which for a limited time only you can purchase the whole collection at 30% off). 

Thanks For Stopping By and Have Yourself a Great Day.xxx

T.L.C.

Hi, I recently did an online class called Clean and Simple where one of the Techniques shown was a graphic style of stamping. I have been itching to try it out and the Subway Art Builders Set from STAMPlorations were the perfect stamps to try it out with.

I used a few sentiments from each of the Subway Art Builders sets to create my base.

After stamping the sentiments in Black Ink and stamping a flower from the Eclectic Floral Stamp set I then die cut the word "LOVE: into it.. I die cut 4 more extra of the die love from white card and glued them together placing the first die cut over them all.

hello!

Hi there everyone,  I am so excited to be joining Purple Onions Design for Stacey Yakula's new releases.

 A few weeks ago I received an email asking if I'd like to be a Guest Designer at Purple Onions for their new release,  well you could say I was just slightly chuffed! 

I love all Stacey's images and to get to play with them for a new release, well let's just say the smile on my face was pretty big!!!

 The new collection illustrated by "Stacey Yacula" is called "A Beautiful Day" and here is my card showcasing a few of the stamps included in this release.

 I used Ruby Owl and Sammy Squirrel along with the Picnic Basket and Thermos... OMG you should see all the "39"new images, absolutely gorgeous, soooo cute!

birthday cards....

Hey there... just sharing a couple of cards I made for my parents birthdays recently...
The images are Mo manning and coloured with Copic markers...

Thanks For Stopping By and Have Yourself a Great Day.xxx

have a lovely day...

 I really enjoyed colouring this image from Mo Manning...  

 Isn't she just Devine!...
I kept the card pretty simple using Distress inks to create my background paper- sentiment is a freebie from Craft Stamper Magazine.

Hugs

Hi there... This sweet lil girl is an image from a "A Day For Daisies".

I digitally paper pieced her after a few days of  playing around with photoshop and I must say I am very happy with the results...

I printed the image out onto blending card so I could colour in her skin and hair as well as adding shadows to her dress with my Copics.

The "hugs" die is from Technique Tuesday.
