I am continuing to showcase the Butterfly Brilliance Collection this week, and have some more cards to share with you.

Colour Me True Love

The True Love Designer Series Paper in the January to June Mini Catalogue is made for those of us who need a colouring escape from time to time!

Love You Lots

Hearts are certainly a symbol we see associated with Valentine’s Day, but they can be used year round to show and share some love with those we care about.

Friends Are Like Seashells Meet Blending Brushes

At my catalogue kick off in January I gave a demonstration using the new Blending Brushes. These brushes have super soft, fine bristles, and are tons of fun to play with. They give a lovely smooth finish to your ink blending.

Simply Well Suited

It can be fun to ‘think outside the box’ and get creative with our crafting supplies, but some days I like to craft and just let the theme of the stamps and supplies carry the flow to creating simple cards.

Do you ever find yourself in a creative rut? Starting with a sketch can be just the inspiration you need to get the creative side of you back on track.

Ride The Range - Stepping It Up

Have you seen the Ride The Range Bundle in the January to June Mini Catalogue? It is one of those bundles that could be easy to pass by, but for some reason it called to me.

A Special Valentine Post - #sharelove

Throughout the month I have been inviting people to make and send cards to share love with people around us. This year more than ever, is a great time to reach out to someone with a card to let them know how much they mean to you.

A Well Suited Christmas

I know tomorrow is Valentine’s Day, but with Covid keeping us at home for so long, sometimes it is easy to lose track of the days. So is it Christmas yet?

Flower & Field

The Flower & Field Designer Series Paper has lots of bright, intense coloured flowers on one side, and various geometric patterns on the other, and you can select it for free with a qualifying order during Sale-a-Bration. Today I used one of the patterns to make 3 different cards.
