My Top 3 Cards from 2020!

Good Morning!
As promised I'm back today to share my favourite creations from this year, due to work I haven't really had as much time to craft as I'd have liked but fingers crossed that will be rectified next year. For now though here's a look at my favourite cards along with a brief description of why I have chosen each particular design.

I'm starting with a bunny card as I feel that you can't go wrong with cute animals and flowers and this card combines them both! 
Next up it's all about Sunflowers and one of my favourite colours, yellow! This is another Penny Black stamp that I actually sold on a few years ago, however I'm regretting that decision as I don't think I have any of the stamped images left over anymore haha 
Finally we're going back to the spooky season with this cute little witch from LOTV. I love the cute design and I always enjoy using Halloween colour schemes! 
Thanks for stopping by and I wish you all the best for 2021, let's hope this year is more positive than the last!
Happy Crafting!

My Top 3 Christmas Cards of 2020!

Good Morning!
Well it's that time of year already, it's Christmas Eve! Every year I like to share with you my favourite Christmas Cards that I've made throughout the year, this has definitely become one of my favourite Christmas traditions. I've narrowed it down to just 3 this year due to the fact I haven't been able to craft as much as I'd hoped, here's hoping life is less hectic next year!

I'm starting with something Clean and Simple, as most of you will know I like to make cards in this style from time to time. The stamp I've used is perfect for this style and I just finished it off by highlighting it with some glitter stickers. 
Next up is one of my favourite LOTV cards from this year, I just love their penguins! 
I teamed it with some traditional colours and I must admit I liked the card that much I couldn't bear to part with it this year lol
Last up is a card using one of my all time favourite Penny Black stamps. You can't beat the oldies!
Well I hope you've all enjoyed having a look at my favourite Christmas creations for this year, why not play along and do the same thing? I'l be back on New Year's Eve with my favourite cards of the year that aren't Christmas related.

All that's left to say is Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all!

LOTV Simply Prints!

 Good Morning!
Along with Digi stamps LILI OF THE VALLEY also have Simply Prints which are perfect if you're in a rush and don't have time to colour, which tends to be me more often than not these days lol 
Today I am sharing a card that I've made using one from the recent 'James Bear' release called 'James Looking Up' which will probably be used as a Thank You card after Christmas. If you'd rather stick to the usual Digi though don't worry, he is still available as that too.

'Lot's of Layers - Penny Black Stamped Image - Embossing'.


The stamp that I have used on today's card is one that I've had for years and I'm not even entirely sure if I've even used it before! So of course I had to change that ...

Creative Inspirations November Challenge!

Good Morning!
This month at CREATIVE INSPIRATIONS we have the theme of Winter Wonderland!
This month's prize is from CRAFTY RIBBONS and the prize is 1m lengths of each of these designs from their new Winterscene range!
I have a little tub in my desk drawer that is full of loose Card Toppers and images that I've cut out from shop bought cards I've received that I thought could be used as them (only on cards to friends / family of course). The image I've used today is a Topper that was sent to me by a crafting friend a few years ago and I think the image is adorable. 
I mounted it with some foam tape onto some cardstock that I cut from a stitched edge die, then I added some more foam tape and stuck the layers in the centre of a 4x4 card blank. I think these are the perfect size for cards where you want to try and keep the style clean & simple with all the focus on the main image.

Merry Christmas from a Snowy Couple!

 Good Morning!
Well unfortunately I didn't get any cards made during my fortnight off work, re-organising and dusting my Craft Room was the closest I got! I found out halfway through my time off that I had been given an Allotment so as you can understand my time was taken up with that lol I made this card before work yesterday however as I had been itching to make a Christmas Card ... It's a little simpler than my usual style and shockingly, I haven't added any flowers!

True Love

Good Morning!
I was asked to make a Silver Wedding Anniversary card recently and straight away I knew the set of large sentiment stamps that I had sitting in a box would be perfect. I was originally going to do the complete card in a Silver scheme but then decided that it needed a pop of colour, which is where the pink came in! The design paper that I've used is actually from a Christmas pad but I think the floral design works perfectly ...

PBSC July Challenge!

Good Morning!
I missed the boat with the start of this month's challenge as my card wasn't ready in time! I'm still struggling to find time to craft these days but I am trying my best! Luckily we have a mid-way reminder post each month for our challenge so at least my card was ready for that lol

This month's challenge over at PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE is 
'Anything Goes or Nature!'
I decided to go for a Monochrome style and kept my card Clean & Simple along with using the second & third generation stamping techniques. I think it's worked quite well with this stamp and I've kept the card versatile for any occasion by keeping it sentiment free.

July's Creative Inspirations Challenge!

Good Morning!
Yet another month has flown by and I shamefully haven't had anything to share since my last Creative Inspirations card ... I am determined to make that change this month, even if it means starting to make the old Christmas Cards (eeek!) I know it's early but I'm starting to get the urge!

Back to today's post and we've got a new challenge at CREATIVE INSPIRATIONS starting and this month's theme is 'In The Garden!'
I didn't really have the time to colour up an image for my card so I dug out one of the pre-coloured designs that I have in a drawer by LOTV. As I've said before they're perfect for quick cards! This image is now available as a Simply Print and you can find it by clicking HERE.

PBSC May Challenge!

Good Morning!
Apologies for being an extremely bad crafter this past month, life is just a little hectic at the moment! I can't wait for things to go back to some kind of normal one day ...
 Anyhoo back to today's subject which is a new challenge over at 
PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE and the theme is 
'Anything Goes or Inspired by a Song!'

I used one of my favourite Penny Black stamps for today's card which I sold a few years ago, unfortunately I can't seem to find it anywhere to buy again for myself which is a little bit annoying lol
I haven't intentionally played along with the optional theme but I'm pretty sure there's lots of songs about Sunflowers out there! I've kept it sentiment free so that it's versatile enough to be used for any occasion.
