And they Call it Puppy Love...


Hi there, I'm a bit of a sporadic blogger aren't I!!

I thought I'd pop by with a couple of 'Love' themed cards which both feature mans best friend.... well you probably guessed that from the post title 😁... and I bet you'll be humming that song all day too!!!


I love the long dog in this Waffleflower set and the sentiment inspired me to concertina fold him so I could make a simple slider card and stretch him out to fit the words :)

I have a few extra photos on my Seven Hills Crafts blog post here, roughly showing how I assembled the basic mechanism if you're interested.
I love the bold fun style of this card..... my kinda valentines!! :)

Quite a different look for this next card... I was inspired to use my Inktense pencils which haven't been used for a few months. These pups turned out quite well so they made it onto a card...


I love these Reverse confetti sets illustrated by Dawn Machell, the images are so lovely to colour with any medium.
I painted the large heart shape onto stamp packaging before transferring it onto the water colour card... this gave me a more natural edge that I could never achieve with a brush, I'd faff to much!!



Thanks for stopping by :)

Scandinavian Prints

Hi there :)

Nine days in to the New Year and my first blog post.... is it to late to wish you a Happy New Year?? oh well I've said it anyhow, hope it's a good one for you :)

I have a couple of cards to share using the Scandinavian Prints stamp set from Neat & Tangled. I do love this set.... when you have shapes to build images your mind starts to wander and then you think of things like... bobble hats!!



.... don't they look cute and cosy in soft winter pastel colours! I added a few details in pen and a hand-drawn border ...oh and I found the perfect sentiment in a Lawn fawn set too :)

My second card uses the Scandi set along with the coordinating Scoops stencil from Neat & Tangled.... love how you can easily make a repeating pattern when you use them together..


A simple monochromatic colour scheme and the stencil enabled me to go for the ombre look too :)

Well that's all from me, hope you have a good day and thanks for stopping by :)
