Just Saying Thanks

Helllloooooo...I have been a bad blogger lately! With the "back to school" routine starting this month, I thought I would try to get back to my craft table more regularly.

Here's a little thank you card I made.

I coloured up some WPlus9 flowers with my Peerless watercolours. I love how the Simon Says banner really ties everything together.

I linked up with Simon's Wednesday challenge...clean and simple...just my style!

thanks for stopping by!

Happy Mother's Day

I know Mother's Day has been and gone (though really every day is a day to honour our mother!), I thought I would post the card I made for my mother in law. 

I used my Hero Arts layering orchid set. Man that set just stamps like butter! I love how it turned out! 

I linked up with Simon's Wednesday challenge...anything goes.

Happy Monday!

You are a wonderful friend

On this rainy long weekend I decided to play along with Simon Says Wednesday challenge, "a bit of sparkle." I played around with my Altenew magnolia set. All the magnolia blossoms around here are just about done, so it is nice to keep them alive in paper form!

I embossed the flowers, stems and leaves in gold then watercoloured them in with my Zig markers, Peerless paints and Distress markers. I fussy cut them and popped them on a base sprinkled with some Heidi Swapp gold mist. I die cut the "you" from gold foil paper and stamped the sentiment in gold Delicata from a Simon set I hadn't used in a long time. A few Simon sequins finished it off!

thanks for stopping by!

Happy May 2-4!

Smile It's Your Day!

I recently bought the Hero Arts layering orchids stamp set. I have been having fun with different colour combos. Here are the results in pink!

I decided to play along with Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge "a hint of pink."



I can't wait to play around with some other colours!

Happy Anniversary

On this rainy old Saturday I decided to play along with Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge "a hint of pink."

I played around with one of my favourite sets, WPlus9 Fresh Cut Florals.

I just love the look of grey and pink together.

Thanks for stopping by!

It is never too early to start dreaming of wheelbarrows full of flowers right?!

I filled this Memory Box wheelbarrow with some WPlus9 flowers. Love it!
