50th Birthday

I love the Broadway Bound Specialty Designer Series Paper with the gorgeous Gold, Basic Black, Whisper White and Gray Granite patterns on one side and the vibrant Lovely Lipstick, Lemon Lime Twist, Whisper White and Basic Black patterns on the other.


This card is a simple design using the Broadway Birthday stamp set.  The number is fussy cut from one of the sheets of the patterned paper.

Champagne Shimmer

I have been playing with the Champagne Shimmer Paint trying out some new techniques.


For this card I tipped the Champagne Shimmer Paint onto my finger and rubbed it onto a piece of Window Sheet.  I added some reinkers in the colours of Crumb Cake, Soft Suede and Black Momento.  I spritz this with Isocol Alcohol (Rubbing Alcohol) and swiped a piece of Glossy White cardstock through the mix.

I swiped 4 pieces of card through the mix, getting a deep colour coverage the first time with it getting lighter each time I re-swipped.  You cannot see it in the photo but there is a great shimmer to the finished piece from the paint.

The candles and sentiment are from the Broadway Birthday stamp set.

I kept the design of the card pretty basic as I did not want to cover up the background piece.

Daisy Pillow Box

This is the card and my ladies made in class yesterday along with the pillow box that they decorated to match.



The daisy was stamped with Soft Suede ink on Whisper White cardstock and coloured with the Clear Wink of Stella pen.  




A piece of Wood Textures Designer Series Paper was cut out using the largest Stitched Shaped Square and layered onto a Basic Black Scalloped Square made using the Layering Squares Framelits. 

The sentiment is from the Balloon Celebration stamp set.




The pillow box was decorated the same as the card, with a piece of Gold Cord added behind the flower and leaves.  The leaves were cut using the Bouquet Bunch Framelits and the May Flower Framelits.

These pillow boxes are perfect for a small piece of jewelly, a gift card or some lotto tickets.  You get 10 in a packet for only $8.75 AUD.

The Simple Joys

I am still making Christmas cards for our Cancer Council Relay for Life Team at work.   I have been using the Under the Mistletoe Designer Series Paper and some of the Christmas stamp sets that are in the Annual Catalogue.


I have used the Christmas Pines stamp set and the Pretty Pines Thinlits for my card.  For the leaves and stamping I have picked up the colours in the Designer Series Paper, Old Olive, Shaded Spruce, Early Espresso and added some Gold Glimmer Paper and Sequin Trim for the centre panel.

A Friend Like You

Hi everyone, sorry for not posting for a couple of weeks but life got kind of busy with work being full on this time of the year.

I have used the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series paper, the Love What You Do stamp set and Falling flowers for my card.


The flowers and leaves were coloured using the Watercolor Pencils stamped using StazOn Black ink on Shimmery White cardstock. These were cut out using the May Flowers Framelits.

Broadway Bound Suite - Day 6

Hi everyone, day 6 of the Broadway Bound showcase.


I love the bright and vibrant colours and the marquee sign in this card.  I think it is the Basic Black that makes the card pop.

Broadway Bound Suite - Day 5

Hi everyone, day 5 of the Broadway Bound Suite showcase.


I always seem to have a favourite sheet in a paper pack.  The sheet with all the candles is my favourite sheet in Broadway Bound Specialty Designer Series Paper pack.  

The candles are made by stamping the image in Black Momento on Whisper White cardstock and cut out using the matching Broadway Lights Framelits.  The candle flames were cut from Gold Foil Sheet.

Broadway Bound Suite - Day 4

Day 4 of the Broadway Bound Suite show case.


The card base is Lovely Lipstick with Gold, Basic Black and Whisper White designer series paper (Tip: You only need to cut 2cm strips for the Gold and Basic Black diagonal striped side pieces, no need to cut a big piece to go across the front of the card).

I love the marquee sign in the centre panel.  This was made using the Broadway Lights Framelits and the Broadway Birthday stamp set.  Gold Metallic Pearls were added around the edge of the marquee sign.
