I am sooooo excited to share the news. I am now one of the newest design team members for Karen Burniston. She is the designer who makes the tools I use to make all the crazy fun pop up cards that I post. Looking forward to the challenges and all the crafty goodness. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m hoping things run smoothly as I get use to some of the changes I’d like to make. I appreciate your patience 🥰
When I saw Karen Burnistons video on how to make a Double-High Tag book card I knew had to give it a go. I actually made this card a year ago so I really hope I remember all the details 😊
All the fun is in the reveal, to see this card in action please check out my FACEBOOK page, feel free to join if you would like to share your own crafty creations. You can also see a video of this card on my INSTAGRAM page (sorry posting videos here takes up too much space)

There have been so many Christmas in July cards posted that I thought I would play along. This is a card that a made a while ago but hadn’t posted yet. The photo doesn’t really do it justice it is so pretty and sparkly in real life.
So my craft room has been packed up for A YEAR!!, with me sneaking a few things out from time to time. Now that I am trying to get my blog back on track, I’ve already had a special request, and I just had to go for it. A lady doesn’t turn 70 everyday, and my crazy craft brain went a little over the top for this one. I lost track of how many hours of die cutting and assembling (I need to find my alphabet stamps lol) but I had a vision and here it is….
And here it is in action 🤩
I’m trying something a little different with this post, I’ve numbered the photos to match the directions that are just below each photo

I am soooo exciting to share this card, I had so much fun making it. It all started with this photo, and the monkey. The monkey had to be blue and yellow and it was for my beautiful grand daughters 2nd birthday, and the rest of it just fell into place as I was making it. It’s funny how that happens some times. I just found the perfect patterned paper and I just happened to have perfectly matching cardstock (from 2 different companies). I bought the little mirrors a while ago and finally had a reason to use them, and posing Jinx the Monkey in all the funny poses actually made me laugh.
As you read the words on each page think of the “Happy Birthday” song. I don’t know if it’s just me but I remember this swap in lyrics from when I was a child
This is why the monkey had to be blue and yellow, it belong to my son when he was three , and now it’s a favourite stuffed friend for this little cutie.
