Valentine Daisy

Hi! Here's a Valentine's card I made tonight. I made a heart stencil and then used ink dusters to shade the heart over the daisy image. I coloured the petals with gold, and added detail with a Gelly Roll Clear Star pen to add some sparkle. I coloured the daisy centre with ink to match the heart.

Stardust Fairy

Hi! Here's another fairy card, using a Lavinia stamp set that I got a while ago but had never used. I used the tree stencil again, and a Clear Star Gelly Roll pen for the fairy wings and a bit of detail on the tree. I added small purple gems to some of the stars.

Bestest Mate

Hi! I've made another card with the tree stencil and Lavinia fairy stamp. This one is for my closest friend, for her birthday. One night after work, when we had had a few beers, we drunkenly told each other that we were bestest mates, so I thought I'd put that on the card, too :)

Twilight Fairy

Hi! I made this for a friend's birthday - she loves purples and fairies, so hopefully she'll like it!

I used a stencil from Clarity Stamp, masked the moon and used ink dusters and torn paper to create the landscape. I added the fairy, a stamp from Lavinia, and coloured her wings, hair and dandelion with an iridescent pen. I added a bit of detail to the tree with a silver pen.

Even though it's snowing...

Hi! It's been snowing here, and it's quite cold, but I was drawn to an image which makes me think of spring and colour. There are a couple of colour challenges that I wanted to have a go at, so I made a version of the card for both.

New Stamps!

Hi! I got a few new stamps at the NEC Hobbycrafts fair in November, but haven't had chance to use them yet, as they weren't Christmassy. There are a couple of 'new' challenges at the moment, so I thought I'd break out one of the NEC purchases :)

I've made the same card twice, with different colours:
