Hello blogville!

I'm continuing my last thread, to share published articles which feature my cards and projects. I'm particularly proud of this card feature, as it showcases new Memory Box stamp and dies and proves that I can do cute! And who doesn't love bunnies?

I opted for a soft colour palette of pale yellow, grey and pink with a little bling thrown in for good measure. I originally opted for alcohol markers to colour in my bunnies but found that they were a tad too bold - you can't go wrong with colouring pencils!

I think this range from Memory Box is perfect for super-cute card for kids.. as well as bunny lovers and tea worshipers! I hope you like my lil' baby bunny cards!

You can find more cards from the range in Papercraft Essentials 132, copies are still available from here!

Until next time..

Happy Wednesday!

I'm catching up on a few card features from recent issues which I've neglected to share.

This lovely tea-inspired project features fabulous dies from Apple Blossom which were designed by my dear friend Vicky! I was so inspired by her amazing dies the that... I... got... girly!

You can see the full feature in Simply Homemade issue 67 which is available here!

Until next time...

Evening all,

I was lucky enough to work with the Fancy Pants Designs Happy Place collection recently for Papercraft Essentials which was total bliss!

This collection has everything I look for in a papercrafting range - contrasting colours, contemporary icons, a mix of patterned papers and quirky sentiments! I didn't have to use much else having been given the full collection, I just used my reliable Washi to add a bit of bling... it's a must. 

This is just a sneak peek of the cards I made... I hope you like!

This is my favourite card! As the Happy Place range is quite scrapbook-orientated I thought that it would be lovely to incorporate a Polaroid pic of me and my best friend Zoë looking rather glam at a hour party!

Issue 129 of Papercraft Essentials is available now and comes with a free Dali die! And you can grab your copy here!

Hello blogworld!

Apologies AGAIN for my absence, I've been so busy with life and wedding prep that i've scarcely had the time to sit down and make any cards!

That said, I missed the release of Simply Homemade issue 62 which has a rather exciting Hero Arts feature done by yours truly! It was an honour to feature in best-selling multi-crafts magazine Simply Homemade which brings the best from the craft world into one magazine each month!

This feature is all about on-trend colour layering with the latest ranges - a perfect combination for creating a stack of quick cards you can grab anytime for any occasion! I used the Ombre inkpads that i fell in love with on my last Hero Arts feature, and added plenty of twine, Washi and sequin bling which balanced well with the clean and simple look!

The cards in this collection feature the Color Layering Butterfly & Hibiscus Stamp sets and the Light to Dark Peach & Pink to Red ombre inkpads. I can't decide which card i like the best, but know they are all going to come in handy as i'm terrible at remembering special occasions until the very last minute! I hope this feature has inspired you to make some special cards of your own!

Thanks for stopping by! N x

Happy Sunday!

Today i'd like to share a little card i made on a whim in the week!

A close friend was having a rough time so i thought i'd knock up a quick card to say 'thank you for being you!' Sometimes i think its easy to spout advice like a broken record to loved ones but putting in that little bit extra and writing it in a lovely card can be really comforting.

This little card is made using the Fancy Pants Summer Sun collection, my trusty Fiskars intricate Daisy punch and some handy Washi tape and brads!

I hope you like it :)
