Blossom Branch Sympathy


Hi everyone! 

Today I have a CAS card to share toady! 


This 'Blossom Branch' is a digital image from Rachel Vass Designs as is the sentiment, and I have coloured it with a Black Promarker to crate this silhouette

For the background I used Tim Holts Distress ink Speckled Egg and a brick stencil  with Hickory Smoke. 

I have die cut a banner and heat embossed the sentiment 'With Sympathy' with WOW Bright wight.

I die cut the square and border with Black card! 

I hope you like it!

2022 Calendar

 Hi Everyone! 

As some of you know that over the past month I have been colouring a 2022 Calendar with some of my Favourite images. Some of which you can see below: 




I have had some many requests from people asking me how I created my Calendars so I thought I would do a quick video to show you how I created them. 

The Calendar was created by me in Word, and then printed onto Card and hand coloured. 

The best bit is that once the year is over I can re-use the images on Cards - love a 2 for 1 


I hope this helps. 

If there is anything you need help with or don't quite get, please message me, email me, leave a comment and I will be happy to help!

Pleases leave a comment and follow my blog too! 

Happy Crafting!

Little Miss Cupid- DDS

 Hi everyone! 

So a New Challenge is beginning this month over at Digi Doodle Studio, and the theme is 'Include a Sentiment!' 

Here is my inspirations using the image 'Little Miss Cupid' 



The image has been coloured with PorMarkers

I createdthe backing paper through Die cutting some clouds and using some Tim Holtz Distress ink. (Spun sugar, Milled Lavender, Victorian Velvet, Dusty Concord)

I layered the clouds on a piece of Papermanis' 'Belissimo' paper and added it to a lilac backing card. 

I then flicked some Cosmic Simmer Iridescent watercolours on to the clouds. After allowing to dry I added the twine and charm. Finally adding the image, sentiment and dark purple gems
