PTI Make it Monday

Thursday, December 31, 2015


I love what Laurie did for this weeks Make it Monday, so much talent!!!. I then went and looked at the floral stamp sets I have from PTI and then decided to shade the lovely Christmas trees from the Joyful Christmas set. Funny as it is the 1/1/16 and I have made my first Christmas Card :). I did some shading on the trees with my prismas colour pencil Apple Green over the top of the new cardstock vintage jadeite which is so lovely. I then placed vellum over some white cardstock and added my shaded trees to the top. Sadly it is not really clear in my photo. I love the spotty vellum as it looks like big snowdrops :) . Thanks for dropping by today and I hope 2016 brings many blessings for You and Yours............Lyn


Reverse Confetti Sketch For You To Try 31

Wednesday, December 30, 2015


Today I worked on a card for this awesome sketch and I cannot believe it has taken me this long to open a stamp set that I fell in love with the minute I saw the previews :). I will not be putting this one away but making a few more cards first as just adore these little flowers and the sentiments too.
Thanks for dropping by and I wish you all the best for 2016 which is so so close now!

Playing Tic Tac Toe

Thursday, December 24, 2015

I just received another box of Taylored goodies and just could not resist this latest challenge Tic Tac Toe!



For my card I used distress ink, gold (my lovely sequins) and twine. I love this stamp and for sure I will forget a birthday and then put this to good use. The gorgeous cardstock and papers have come from the Hello Happiness collection also from TE. Thanks for dropping by, I hope everyone has a Joyous Christmas, God bless.



TE Share Joy Challenge

When I saw this inspiration photo I knew that I had to pull out a Taylored Kit that was my very first purchase from this company. I fell in love with the floral stamps in this set and still today they are among my favourites. I am going to send this card to a very precious friend in New Zealand so I love the very fitting sentiment :) Although 25 yrs older than myself I have loved and cherished Nonis friendship for many years now and miss that we dont live in the same country anymore............But what a great excuse to book a ticket now and then :). Thanks for dropping by!

Stamps of Life October Kit

Tuesday, December 1, 2015



I joined up for the monthly kits in November which saw me taking possession of the delish October kit. I have to say I am so delighted with it, the papers are amazing and everything coordinates so beautifully. It certainly makes it so much easier to put cards together. I now have the November kit and cannot wait to play :) Thanks so much for taking the time to drop by!
