If you love a soft floral card with plenty of layers, texture and a little bit of “let’s see where this goes” creativity, this Stampin Up Lily of the Valley card is a lovely one to try. For this week’s Thursday Live, I played along with the Global Design Project challenge, CASEing the designer Kim…
If you love interactive cards but don’t want anything overly complicated, this week’s Thursday Live Flip Up Card is such a fun one to try. This is one of those cards that looks far more impressive than it actually is to make. The mechanism itself is incredibly simple once you understand how the folds work….
Thursday’s live started a bit like most of mine do… half a plan, half “we’ll see what happens”. I had all these coloured images sitting on my desk from the Artisan Sketched Garden Paper — you know when you go on a colouring spree and then end up with extras? Yep. That pile. And I…
This week’s Thursday Live was such a fun one. I had the brand new Stampin Up Delicate Whispers Bundle on my desk, and once I started playing, I couldn’t stop. This suite is elegant, detailed, and beautifully coordinated. Think soft florals, bronze specialty paper, rich Secret Sea, Mossy Meadow, Crumb Cake, and a stunning new…
It’s time for another Colour INKspiration Challenge, and this week we’re playing with #197 — a calm, coastal palette of Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy, and Crumb Cake. These colours instantly reminded me of natural textures and soft, layered neutrals, so I decided to create a project that captures that easy, relaxed feel. For my…
For this week’s Thursday Live, I embraced the spirit of experimentation and played with a technique that had only just popped into my head that morning! Using the Stampin Up Perfectly Pears stamp set, I combined ink blending, embossing, and watercolour into one sweet and rustic mixed-media card. If you’re based in Port Lincoln, South…
We’re officially back into the swing of things! After some time away and a bout of illness, I was so happy to return to my Thursday Lives with a fun technique and a gorgeous new product from Stampin’ Up! – the Perfectly Pears Bundle. This set is part of a broader suite released in July,…

Our first card uses all products from the Suite. Stamp Set, Embossing Folder, Pattern Paper, Twine and Embellishments. For this card, I’ve…
Have you tried the Cut, Flip and Stick Technique? Alright, I’m just being silly, I don’t think there is really such a technique, I just made it up, and you probably have created cards this way. For these particular cards, I’m using Softly Stippled Designer Series Paper, but you can use any of your favourite…
The Stampin Up Paper Florist Dies I’ve used in today’s cards could be easily overlooked in the Catalogue because it’s stand alone. But if you look through your catalogue, you’ll notice made up 3D flowers throughout it. Perfect for cards, or 3D items. Today I have 2 cards and 2 videos to share with you….
Stampin Up Earthen Elegance would have to be one of the nicest Suites in the Annual Catalogue! And I’m not asking you – I’m telling you LOL. For my Live Card Making Class this week, I had a bit of inspiration from YouTube. Scrolling through the list of recommended for me videos was one called…
Hey Everyone!! I think it’s 5 Weeks!?? I’m back into my regular Thursday Live Card Making Classes. This week I created with the Stampin Up Timeless Arrangements and used an ease Acetate Watercolour Technique. You’ll notice that the colour combination is very ‘not me’! I asked on my Facebook Page for some combos and this…
