Excuse: Website Header

05Jul10

I know that you’ve noticed my lack of posts lately so I’m trying to make up for it by showing you all my “excuses”.  If you want to read more about what’s been keeping me away, read this post. But today I’m here to show off my latest pics for a website header.  I seem […]

Christmas in July – Part 2

02Jun09

Once I find something I like I tend to keep making it again and again.  This time it is this little box that I showed you in a previous post.  It is just such a versatile box.  I love it! I’ve have made a few cosmetic changes though as I will be using these boxes as […]

Christmas in July

31May09

My sisters, my mum and I (all 9 of us!) are getting together in July to make all our Christmas cards as well as some gift boxes and an advent calender so that we can be prepared this year before Christmas is over.  It’s my job (because I own all the supplies) to come up […]

Always Cheep Talk

08May09

For this card I have copied the layout from one that I saw on SplitcoastStampers.  I’ve changed a few things as I didn’t have any designer series paper.   All the patterned cardstock on this card has been made with coordinating colours and using images from the stamp sets Always and Cheep Talk. I really […]

Bugs & Lizards

03Apr09

My niece had her third birthday last week and I had to make a cute card for such a little cutie.  It wasn’t until after I gave her the card that my sister told me that in their family they have the saying “bugs and lizards” for hugs and kisses.  How cute and fitting this card was. […]
