Still Feeling Nifty At Fifty?!

Made this card for my brother in law who turns 50 today!


I used the Smart Aleck digital stamp by Kenny K. And just added the sentiment in a speech bubble. 


I love these retro cartoon images. You can have so much fun with them!!

I used the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches but forgot to upload in time for the cut off! Oops keep doing that! Oh well here it is anyway!

Thanks for looking!

Father's Day Card

My dad is really into his motorbikes so he usually gets bike related cards!


I started off with the Clean and Simple sketch.



The base paper has tyre treads embossed onto it already which I thought could represent the little flags.


Thanks for looking.

You Make Me Smile....

...no really you do! Well it is now a proven fact! I tried to make a quick card....and failed. I even made it out of stickers, so no stamping or colouring and it still took me over half an hour! Clearly I am very slow!!


Oh well it's very cheery! It's made from papers and stickers from the Summer Days collection from Echo Park.


I love all these colours together.


I used the sketch at Retro Sketches. I loved Kasia's DT inspiration card where she had cut that bottom bit out so I decided to cut it out too and make a little window to spy the flowers through.

Have a lovely day.

Baby Smith

I made my friend this little appliquéd onesie for the new baby. I had been handing on for it to be named but alas two weeks old and still no name! So this is what it got instead!

I had thought afterwards I should have done "Smithy". Very English! Another time maybe!!
