Hey lovelies!We've shifted from Christmas cards to Valentine's Day cards in the craft world, so today I thought I'd share with you this simple card using Concord & 9th's "Monster Love" stamp set! As soon as these cuties were released I knew I had to have them!  I stamped my monster and his tummy first using Archival Jet Black ink on some watercolour paper. I masked the monster while I stamped the balloon and string, I used the "love you" sentiment in the balloon this time to fit with the theme. I used Altenew's watercolour palette to colour my monster...

Hello lovelies, Happy New Year!I hope you've all had a fantastic time over the holidays and you're settling in to 2019 quite nicely, today I wanted to share a friendship card and some matching tags I've made using the Mama Elephant "Heart In Bloom" stamp set! How beautiful is this floral stamp? I'm positively in love with it! I started by stamping out the large floral heart with the banner in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colouring it with my alcohol markers, I'm so used to colouring floral stamps with my watercolour paints it was refreshing to have a change!...

Hello lovelies!I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and that 2018 treated you well, now we're speeding towards 2019 I thought I'd share with you some simple cards I made to welcome in the new year with you all! New Year cards aren't typically a tradition here in the UK but with Mama Elephant's "Happy New Year Wishes" stamp set how is a girl supposed to say no?! I started by making some very simple backgrounds using Distress Oxide Ink and metallic watercolour paint. I cut a panel of white card stock down to the size I needed for...

Hey lovelies!Christmas is only a couple of days away now, where has this year gone?! I wanted to take this opportunity to wish you a very Merry Christmas (or happy holidays, whichever you prefer!) before the big day! I wanted to revisit which is probably my favourite stamp set I've bought for the holidays this year, Mama Elephant's "Yappy Woofmas" set is just too adorable for words! I stamped a couple of the images using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured them using my alcohol markers. I added some highlights with a white gel pen and fussy cut them out....

Hey lovelies!Today I'm sharing with you a card I made using the Mama Elephant "Little Dog Agenda" stamp set! I love the Little Agenda sets as I feel they're so versatile! I stamped the images using Memento Tuxedo Black ink, coloured them with alcohol markers and used a white gel pen to add highlights. I wasn't sure which of the images I wanted to use just yet, so I fussy cut a bunch of them out so I could just grab the ones I wanted when it came to assembling my card! The others can be saved for future projects....
