Hey lovelies!With all of the cold weather we've been having it seems it's germ season! Almost everyone I know has the cold/flu (myself included!) so this week I thought I'd share a simple get well soon card to send to your loved ones while they're a little under the weather! I stamped the cute sick whale from Lawn Fawn's "Get Well Before 'N Afters" stamp set using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured it with my alcohol markers. I used a white gel pen to add some highlights as well as dotted details to the whale's cheeks before fussy cutting...

Hey lovelies! March is a month full of birthdays for me, so this week I'm sharing another birthday card this time using Heffy Doodle's "Dinky Dinos" stamp set! I have a fascination with dinosaurs and these tiny little stamps were too adorable, I couldn't resist! I stamped my images using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured them with my alcohol markers. I added white highlights using a gel pen, then added some texture to the egg shell and dinos with some blue and red coloured pencils. I cut a panel from white card stock using the second largest die from Mama...

Hey lovelies!This week I'm here to share a cute love/friendship themed card using Lawn Fawn's "Let's Toast" stamp set! I love sending these cards to my closest friends and not only my significant other, just to let them know how much I care! I stamped some of the images from the set using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured them with my alcohol markers. I added a little extra shading to my toaster using coloured pencil to give it some extra texture as well. I stamped the images' rosy cheeks with Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide ink, added some highlights and...

Hey lovelies!I'm back this week to share a birthday card using Mama Elephant's "Stackable Cuties" stamp set!  I cut a panel from white card stock using Altenew's "Cube Cover" die and another panel the same size to back it with. I placed some Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink on my glass craft mat and sprayed it with some water, I placed my backing panel on to my ink multiple times making sure to dry it with my heat tool between layers. Once I was happy with my background panel I splattered both panels with Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink and...

Hey lovelies!Today I'm sharing a simple card using the "Flying With Friends" stamp set from Mama Elephant! I'm guilty of always wanting to add "more" to my cards but sometimes a simple small scene is all you really need! I cut a panel from watercolour paper using the second largest of Mama Elephant's "Basic Rectangles" Creative Cuts. I stamped the elephant on the left first using Ranger Archival Jet Black ink and created a mask for him before stamping my second elephant sitting next to him. I coloured my images and created a soft background for them using my Altenew...
