Happy Mother's Day

It's Mothering Sunday today and we're celebrating our special Mums here in the UK.

Here's the card I made for Jeff's Mum:

A Rose Is A Rose

This card uses an old but favourite stamp set with a colour combo of Rich Razzleberry,  Wisteria Wonder along with Certainly Celery and Old Olive stamped on Very Vanilla.  

Have a great day.

No Peeking

Hi all,

Well, it's certainly feeling more like winter now the clocks have gone back and the weather has done nothing but rain recently!  I couldn't resist, and HAD to buy No Peeking stamp set which I fell in love with ever since I first set eyes on the new Annual Catalogue :)

With Christmas just around the corner, I decided to make my nephew his Christmas card with this cute stamp set, hopefully, he'll love it as much as I do!  For his card, I used Real Red and Wild Wasabi colours for him, below is another one made using Cherry Cobbler and the new In Color: Gumball Green.
