Hello crafting friends

Today I'm sharing a super cute birdie card from a stamp set by Catherine Pooler called 'Toucan do it'

I love anything tropical and this set has a parrot, toucan and this gorgeous cockatiel, as well as some beautiful florals.



 I used picked raspberry distress oxide and a dotty stencil in the background and then used a grungy heart stamp from Craftyroo designs to add the black detail.  I then stamped and coloured the cockatiel and some of the flowers from the set, before fussy cutting them out.  I layered them onto a scallop frame die from Lawn fawn (I cut it three times and layered it up for dimension) , continuing to layer up and stick the elements with a combination of glue an foam pads.

Isn't he/she just totally adorable!!

ADU new release March 2022

 Hello Crafting friends

It is time again for the new release images from All dressed up, and as usual they are simply stunning!!

I made this card with my image called field of flowers, and she is perfect for a colouring session as you can colour the whole scene behind her if you wish.  



I aligned her  my Craftartist software and type up a sentiment to match underneath her,  I printed her out and coloured her using a combination of copic markers and Prismacolour pencils.  The paper pad is from crafters companion and the dies are my favourite flower set from My Favorite things.

Here all all of the images which are available here from Etsy

Monkey around

 Hey everyone

So glad to see you - sorry I haven't posted for a few weeks.  I started a brand new job on the 14th Feb and its been rather hectic.  I now have to travel more and have more responsibility so I find myself exhausted every evening!

I made this cutie using a mama elephant stamp set, with tropical leaves from lawn fawn and the back ground stamps from Tracey Het.


All coloured with Copics and fussy cut out.  I used the 'having it all' stamp set from Tracey Hey in the background and inked along the edge.  After die cutting the flowers and foliage, I coloured these with Copics too and layered the card together with glue and foam pads

I hope you like it!
