Another Home Tweet Home card from me...


Lovely Paperchase stickers and die cuts from the Create a Critter Cricut cart (say that 4 times quickly!).

There is something about Kraft...

...that I just enjoy! Not sure if it is the simplicity of the colour, the slight grungyness of an imperfect finish or just the contrast that it has with some colours. This card makes me smile - used up some scraps I had in my scrap box and various round punches. Edges sanded with nail files from Poundland and buttons from my button box. Simple and effective.

The UKS card swap for March was all about florals, so here is one of the card versions I came up with: Digital image is from Kirsty Wiseman as are the polkadot papers. Gems and ribbon from stash, flower stickers from Tesco, I think!

I'm sure they will hit the spot - just need to find some large suare envelopes to fit them now!

My favourite is the Geek Bug - I was a bit of a geek at school! I've enjoys playing with these and using Promarkers to do a bit of colouring in too.










Late Christmas Card Design!

UKS has some great swaps and in November last year, I took part in a card swap. Make 5 cards the same, send them to the host and get 5 different ones back from other designers.

Here's my design using old Blitzen Basic Grey papers, buttons and stash:
