Any occasion

Morning everyone!
Hope you are all well! 
I made another white on white card last night but this time wanted to do a generic one that could be given for a variety of occasions, which is why I went for the 'with love' sentiment. 


The card is 6x6, using the A4  garden lattice m-bossabilities folder for the back ground. 
I then cut out the flower using a Sizzix framelit, layering the bottom part with the Spellbinders basic lattice and framing with the Sizzix framelit die. The small flower is also Sizzix.
The corners are Spellbinders Lattice Accents and then the whole thing is completed with ribbon and pearls.

Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful day, and again, thank you for your lovely comments, they really do mean a lot :-) xxx

A bit of a challenge

Hi everyone! 
I have a very stressful week coming up as all year 6 teachers will tell you - it's the dreaded sats!!! So I decided to have a bit of a chill day and do some crafting.   I wanted to do something that was a little challenging, so I decided to get my snow white Centura Pearl out and use that as the only card.  I then got out a whole heap of dies and tried to create something delicate and pretty. 

I really hope you like what I've put together! 


First I used the Garden Lattice A4 m-bossabilities for the background, followed by the basic lattice die. I then cut a Sizzix framelit out of the lattice and made a border using 2 Sizzix framelits together to get the frame in the middle. 
I then die cut Lattice Accents for the middle, placing a sentiment in the centre.  I completed it with some pearl and ribbon from the Ribbon Reel.

Thank you for stopping my and more importantly thank you for any comments that you have left on my blog.  I really do appreciate them, I don't get to do crafting as much as  I would like but it really does act as light therapy for me when things get stressful, which in my line of work they tend to! 

Thanks everyone and have a great night!!! xxx

Sherri Baldy stamps - my new favourite obsession

Hi everyone!

Hope the bank holiday treated you all well and you enjoyed the sunshine! I forgot how lovely the sunny weather could be!
I treated myself to some Sherri Baldy stamps over the weekend and managed to squeeze in a little bit of crafting. I think I may be officially obsessed with these images! So cute!


Hair: TN2, TN3, TN4
Skin: FS2, FS3, FS4
Jeans: TB3, TB4, TB5
Top, trainers, headband: PP2, PP3, PP4

The pink backing paper and blue card behind the image are Centura Pearl and the blue spotty/pink spotty papers are from the Papermania Capsula Collection.
The ribbon and lace are both from the Ribbon Reel.
The buttons are also from the Capsule Collection. 
The die cutting has been done using Spellbinders labels 29.

Can't wait till next weekend, I will hopefully have some crafty time ahead of a very stressful work week! 

Happy Crafting! :-) xx
