Bio.
I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at College many years ago, I now work as a Medical photographer part time but my love was always drawing. I started cardmaking about 4yrs ago when I bought my daughter a cardmaking kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug! My daughter preferred scrapbooking. I then started looking online at other blogs and this then became my passion and I loved sharing my cards with like minded people.
I love stamping and loved finding images, but sometimes I could not find what I wanted so I started to draw myself.
This then has become my second addiction and I have never looked back, I love thinking of new images, and its just fabulous to see others take them and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue!

Many thanks to our Generous Sponsors for their Continued Support

Color Throwdown 644



 
     


I’m finally getting a chance to play along with this week’s Color Throwdown Challenge. These colors stumped me for a few days, then I decided to go a masculine route. 

Stamp: Vroom background stamp Unity Stamp Co


Until next time!

Beyond the Blue



 



This week’s Beyond the Blue challenge is a technique from one of the DT Holly!

It probably won’t surprise you that I didn’t have the supplies that Holly used & instead of buying them, I decided to play around with the supplies I did have.  (The glitter was unopened!! Lol ) 

I took some Tim Holtz Distress Texture Paste & added glitter plus some drops of dye reinker.  It ended up being pretty thick consistency wise. I was surprised that the glitter didn’t show up as much as I thought it would.  So after I spread the mixture on my card front, I sprinkled some more glitter on top. 

The Hooray is a Taylored Expressions die. 

We hope you’ll join us!

HMFMC 341 Embossing Heat or Dry

 

There's a new theme for the House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge-- it's embossing- Heat or Dry

I used one of the mini stamps from a clear set.  I like the mini clear sets, each mini stamp has one or two sentiments with it.  Each mini set gives you quite a bit of versatility.  We hope you'lll join us for this new theme!

MFT Sketch 539


 
I used the MFT Main Squeeze stamp set for this week’s sketch challenge.  I used squeezed lemonade distress ink for the background.  And put some glossy accents on the lemon.


Until next time!
