Mother's Day



Please excuse the dreadful photography.
In real life the card stock I used is beautiful pearlescent shades of teal.

The stamps are Inkadinkado and Papermania.

A very strange Mother's Day this year. Mum and I spoke to each other from a safe distance, she inside her house and me on the path outside.

Hoping all my card-making club ladies are safe and well and enjoying lots of crafting during this lockdown.

Hummingbird



Hummingbird stamp is by Woodware, sentiment stamp is Waltzingmouse.

I've used Distress Oxide sprays to create the patterned paper. Square debossed dies are by Phill Martin.

Fancy-fold



I'd seen a similar fancy-fold card in a recent magazine (can't remember which one!) and liked that it was so simple, and folds fairly flat.

I've used Paper Boutique papers and topper on this one.




The reason I can't remember which craft magazine I looked at is that I read quite a few. I don't buy them as such, we have a subscription to an online magazine service called Readly. We pay a monthly fee and then, on up to five devices, we can literally read hundreds of magazines on all sorts of topics.

The downside is of course you don't get any free cover gifts, but with some of the craft magazines costing £5 and £6 each to buy the cost of Readly more than makes up for this. You don't need to live in the same household to take advantage of using five separate devices. Our monthly fee is used on iPads in three different houses.

With Love



Stamp and die set is by Daisy Mae Designs.

I liked their sample card so pretty much copied it. I've used alcohol markers to colour the image.
