Happy Birthday Lisa


Lisa is the daughter of a friend and went to school with my daughter and they went to pony club together. Alough they both still ride Lisa does Jousting so for her birthday card I decided to do this card for her. EDPD comes to the fore again with the little people and the horse and the arches. the tree is from another cart but can't remember which one as I used the tree on another card and for this I used the outline and sponged the tree through using it as a stensil. It looked a bit bare so I stamped it as well. the footprints are a roll stamp from a wombat footprint and the for you and HB stamps are from SU.

Happy easter to clients and staff


Well easter is here and although eggs are not supposed to be till Sunday I wasn't going to see these people on Sunday so I decided to make some easter baskets and take them into work for the clients and the staff. Each basket is about 2 inches high and has just one very small egg. The cut is from cricut TBBM and the handle is made from curling ribbon which nicely held in place poked through the little handle holes in the box cut. The stamp is from stampin up. All but one I decorated as the above ones but one for a special client who was allowed to go out for several hours I attached 2 of my paper dolls one a nurse and one a doctor. The theory being he could now go out on leave as he had a doctor and a nurse to look after him.

sentimentals card





This is a card from sentimentals the fold is a little different so I used the one side to make a pop up card and the other flap to add something you may like to give ie a gift card etc.










this is another little card with the button on the front and the threaded ribbon it is so cute and the sentiment is lovely.

This is a cute little back pack that you can put small items in as a present it would be real cute. Both the top and the little bag on the front open.

Tauranga SU an explosion box


This is a wee explosion box which holds one easter egg. I tyhink it is so cute and a very inexpensive presie to give to people for easter.

Tauranga SU day




Another card made at the SU day. Loved the reflection and learning how to do it

March Tauranga SU day


20th March and there were 50 people doing cards and projects of all shapes at the St John church hall. My friend Julia from Auckland came down for it and was one of the demonstrators. Here are 4 little cards they are about 3 inches square and are so cute for gift tags.


The end to 2009 Liam came to visit

Well its 2010 and its March and the year is going so fast I am having trouble catching up with myself. we had our son and daughter-in-law bring our grandson out in December for christmas so we were able to see him and what a cutie he is. I am bias of course but he is a delight and loved the little swing that grandad put up in the tree outside the lounge.

He also had a go at driving.

Liam my grandson turned 1 in December. I wanted to make him a card but it got too big to go on one piece of paper. So I used 3. Well that is 3 pieces of A4 landscape (A4 is similiar to US letter size). Well after spending time cutting and designing I finally got this rather larger than anticipated project completed. All worth while when, when he saw the cards he loved them. His mum is going to put them up for him.

Happy Birthday Melanie



I needed to make a card for my step granddaughter and decided it would look much nicer if it had something to go with it. I decided to make a bag after looking at a blog and I love the BTB&M cart. I also like the swirly font of LL and loved the flower frame and flower cause they looked nice. with the card I used the cupcake from doodle charms (just love that one) it looked lonely so I added the happy birthdays and the 20 sticker and painted in the candle glow with sparklie paint. the brads made it look like it had ( hundreds and thousands (not sure what you call them in US but they are tiny sprinkles which are like balls.) On the inside of the card I needed to conceal the ends of the ribbon and so I embossed the white and then as it looked so plain I added the frame from LL. on the right inside the card I used LL to do the words. for the bag I cut it at11.5 inches wide it is 18inches long and used the 12x24 mat and paper. Used a complementary paper and the matching ribbon to add dimension to the card. the front needed something so I added the flower from LL and then added brads and bows. the last pic shows the heart that is made up od beads and stones which I gave as a present but this was what started the co-ordination of the colours.
