Happy 1st Birthday George

Morning all,

Today is a special little boy's 1st birthday so I knew I had to use the much neglected Choo Choo stamp set. I had a look online and saw a great card that I just had to CASE, put my own little spin on a few things and hey presto, here it is below:

Choo Choo Birthday Card

Contempo Christmas

Good afternoon, what a miserable first day of October!

Well, seeing as it's pouring with rain outside, I don't feel so bad showing you a *cough* Christmas card that I've made recently using a new stamp set from the newly released Idea Book & Catalogue!!!

The stamp set is called Contempo Christmas which is a set of four stamps and co-ordinates lovely with a matching wheel and ornament punch which saves cutting out the bauble by hand!

Here is the card I made using the traditional Christmas colours: Old Olive, Real Red and Whisper White.

A Tree For All Seasons

Hi all,

Okay, I know the sun is shining outside and it's nearly Easter, but I just had to make my first Christmas card, lol. I've bought "A Tree For All Seasons" a few weeks back but I've never actually christened the stamp set, so I decided to make some cards with it.

A Tree For All Seasons - Winter


A Tree For All Seasons - Summer


Bye for now,
