Christmas- revisited

‘You win some, you learn some.’

End of the year is the time we look back and remember all the good things (and some of the bad) that taught us this year.
Or the years before.
It is interesting to look back on my card making beginnings and see the progress over time. We may not have the feeling we change and progress with any activity we are doing in our life but when we keep track with a diary, photos of our makes or anytime else we do, we can really appreciate the time and effort we put into it and the difference it makes.


This is a card design I revisited from years back. It’s simple and made quickly and it withstood the test of time. I still like it and wouldn’t do it any different now. :)

Tiddly Spring

I adore the quiet evening moments, when I get out of my white working uniform and jump head first into the world of colours! Spring is the perfect time for it with inspiration all around me. The inspiration for this post was a cherry tree I pass every day on my way to work. The blossoms are so soft and gentle I can't help but run my fingers through them every morning, it just makes my day. I was so excited to see this new stamp at Tiddly Inks Cherry Wryn. Isn't she adorable? I could just imagine the soft petals on my skin when colouring it. A stroke of acrylic paint, a touch of Distress Inks, foamiran flowers and voila.. here she is, Miss Spring herself :) She is so adorable I made a few versions and can't wait to have time to colour some more! I'm happy to be part of TIddly Inks blog hop Also entering in : Cinspirations April challenge: Spring time Cutiepie challenge- Delightful digis Challenge up your life #90: Aquarell

After rain comes sunshine

When we go through hardship, it is difficult to see the sun through the thick clouds. But we must remember, the sun is there, even when we can't see it. And there will be sunshine after all the rain. I promise.  This card took a little longer to make than my usual cards. It was made with a family member in mind after they suffered a heart attack. When your life changes upside down in an instant, it is hard to focus on the good things. But having family around who will be there for you no matter what, is the most you could ask for.  So I made two images that could easily be two separate card fronts, but together they conveyed the message perfectly with the b/w vs. colored image.  On the front panel I stamped the little girl and ducks from Hello Bluebird Singing in the rain stamp set together from clouds from an older set.  I masked the images and then blended the background with Distress Oxide Black Soot. Then I colored the images with C family of Copic markers, drawi...
