New Baby Cards

Hello,

Recently we have had some amazing news in our family! One of my cousins is having a baby!

Therefore I felt it was perfect time to make some New baby Cards! 

I had initially planned to just make a Gender Neutral card (the one in brown and cream), however I liked the design I came up with and was having fun creating, so I made a Male and Female version.

This way I am prepared for any outcome!

Below are the individual images of the different cards I created:

A Fox Birthday Cake!

Hello,

I have loved the Unicorn Cake since it started trending back at the end of 2016 and I am so happy that it is still going strong!

However as it is now Autumn and I was making a cake for a Man (my uncle), I decided to switch it up a bit and change the unicorn for a fox! 

(Plus there has been a fox terrorising my uncle by digging up his garden! Ha Ha Ha!) 

I think this Cake Idea would also work well for Halloween or Thanksgiving Parties!

Below are some more Images of the finished cake!

 

I hope my blog helps you to find inspiration and would like to invite you to leave as many comments and questions as you would like in regards to any post. I will always try to respond to as many of these as possible.

Hope you are having a wonderful day,

Card Sketch Monday - 8th October 2018

Hello, 

As I enjoyed using the pattern papers from last months issue of Making Cards & Papercraft so much, I decided that this week I would use the pattern papers from their Christmas Edition to make some cards!

As these are Christmas cards I couldn't resist adding a bit of glitter and sparkle so did do a bit of heat embossing on top of the snowdrops and tree ornaments in the images!

Quilling on Cards

 Hello,

I've decided to take a small break from Christmas card making and instead have a look at one of my favourite techniques for making embellishments for cards. 

Since I began card making, I have really liked the look of Quilling. 

For those unfamiliar, Quilling involves the use of strips of paper that are rolled, shaped, and glued together to create decorative designs. Quilling can be used to create anything from flowers to animals and even is used to make models and Jewellery.

Below is some photos of some of the cards I have made using quilling:
