Welcome "Big Shot"!!


I was given a Big Shot (Sizzex) machine for my birthday, with a couple of embossing folders. This is the first card I made using embossed paper.

Water colour pencils


Happy Birthday to a good friend. Again, enjoying the textured hand made paper. This was also my first attempt at colouring in a stamp with water-colour pencils.

Thank you


Loved using this burnt orange paper, again, Japanese style, hand made with a rough fibrous edge. It came in a pack with a lot of other bits and pieces, odd cuts, different colours, but all unique.

Feliz CumpleaƱos


Using my new stamp set, and some Japanese inspired paper, I made this birthday card for my Aunty. The sentiment and message on the inside were printed on the computer to match the colours of the card.

Happy 4th Birthday

A birthday card for a gorgeous 4 year old! Again, I experimented with cutting out paper and sticking it to the card. It's a time consuming way to make a card, I think I prefer stamping!

New Baby



"Congratulations on the news of your pregnancy"... Instead of stamping, I cut out cute animals from paper and stuck them to the card.

My first Christmas Cards





The Christmas Cards that started it all... Not overly exciting in terms of design... but it got me started!
