Father's Lion

Since I saw this little guy I knew I just needed to make a card with him, I just love lions. Now he's a father's day lion but you can use him for any day cards. This card is just one of those little love notes I made for my wonderful boyfriend to show him some appreciation.

Fairytale Bridge

As you might have noticed my new favourite thing is to create backgrounds, it's a way to take my colouring to the next step, learning how to create depth into beautiful scenes. My interest into scenes was sparked in late fall 2013 when I found my way back to he awesome stamps by Make It Crafty, they have so many beautiful background stamps, both already created scenes but also sets so you can create your own. Todays creation is made with one of the newly released scenes and it also showcases the new colouring challenge over at Make It Colourful which it's light through the trees. Come join us and play you too! Todays creation is not a card, instead I took the image and added a little stand on the back side so it could stand on its own.

Maurice Cool Dad

You might have seen that I love pairing the Little Miss Muffet Stamps with Doodlebug Designs papers, so when I found out that the Simon Says Stamps June Card Kit contained some new Doodlebug Design papers I just jumped with joy. I love how the strong colours in the papers just work perfect with this image. And by the way there is a challenge going on over at the Little Miss Muffet Challenge blog, and the theme is "Let's get stitched", so I knew I had to dig out my stitched dies too!

Broasca's Cupcake

When I sat down to create this card, I didn't really know where to start. Then this image basically just jumped up at me shouting me, me, me. So of course I had to oblige this adorable character. It wasn't until I went to choose videos to thumbnail at the end-screen that I realised that I seem to make a loads of videos pairing these papers with characters from Little Miss Muffet Stamp! Not that it's anything wrong with that, they just seem to be perfect for each other.
