Tea-riffic Day

Today’s the day, it’s Karen Burniston’s new release sneak peek, and it is such a fun release. I’m a tea drinker so I was really happy to see the borders and pop up.

I thought it would be so cute if I used pieces from the Tea and Coffee Borders, the Tea and Coffee Pop up, and Lorna Label to make this cute little girls Tea Party.

12 months of Favourites

I’m here to wish you all a belated Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year. Through the Christmas season I don’t get a lot of time to craft or blog (I have a retail job) but I thought I’d take an evening and reminisce over last year’s cards and pick a favorite for each month. I’m actually going through each month as I write this blog so I am figuring it out as I go.

January 2023 Spa Day Surprise Cube Card,

I really love the pink sparkle and my little spa girl with her mud mask.

February 2023 Under The Sea,

I enjoy making elaborate castles, and the texture of the sand paper.

March 2023 Happy Mother’s Day Paper frames

This is my first Craft Roulette card and I love how I created such a cute card using the parameters and making something that I wouldn’t have come up with otherwise.

April 2023 Crafty Friend Birthday card

This is another Craft Roulette Card, and again one I wouldn’t have come up with otherwise. I really love the mini pop-up card in the card and the colour combo

May 2023 Time For Tea

I typically hate mice, but in paper, they are pretty cute. Just love the little peek-a-boo mouse in the tea pot. Also another Craft Roulette Card (are you seeing a theme here)

June has a lot of great cards, sooo hard to pick, I think I’m going to go with this one

June 2023 In the Garden Thinking of you

Love the dimension in this card with all of the layers of flowers to make this scene

July 2023 Boho Graduation Card

This card was quite the work in progress. It was a personalized card and all the elements I assembled myself including the shaker boxes.

August 2023 Hello Birthday Bouquet

This card was inspired by Craft Roulette and a card that Sandy Diller made. I think the vellum shaker is so pretty and the pop-up bouquet is such a fun surprise.

September 2023 Killer Birthday

I love that this card is sooooooo opposite than what I typically make. Jason is actually popping out of the bushes, and the blood is shiny.

October 2023 Just Turn on the Lights

I Lβ™₯️VE everything about this card. The over the top Castle, the lights, all the little elements and especially the message. This would be my number 1 card of the year.

November 2023 Swirling Snowflakes

This has to be one of my favourite colour combos, and I love the swirling motion of the snowflakes. This is another Craft Roulette card.

December 2023 Red and Gold Tag and Label Charm card

I had to have at least one Christmas card and this one is the one I like the best. It’s so shiny and glittery in person and the ribbon adds such a luxurious touch.

I also want to have one honourable mention (it was so hard to just pick one) but I knew this card had to be on here somewhere

Fairy Tale Castle

Thank you so much for taking the time to check out my blog. I greatly appreciate every one of you. And I hope you have a truly magnificent New Year.
