We’re still playing with colours for the latest Cupcake Inspiration Challenge. The challenge is well under way but you still have until Friday to play along, and we’d love to see your projects focusing on the colours aqua, red and brown. You can bring in other colours too, but the focus should be the challenge … More CIC 525 | Birthday Alpaca | Aqua, Red, Brown
I was planning to share these cards yesterday, but by the time the third one was made it was already pretty late. I do have a studio light for my photos, but they look better with natural light, which had already gone, and sorting the blog post would take a while, and I wanted to … More Adding Colour To Cards
I fell behind a bit at the end of last week. I had no energy left after being done with work each day. The weekend has helped me recover somewhat, and I’ve been doing some catching up on the cards I had wanted to make and share over the days I missed. Not all of … More Catch Up Cards

I really enjoy colouring. But sometimes it’s nice to have other ways to use our stamps. For today’s card instead of colouring I did paper piecing! Actually, there was still a little colouring because I added some shading… But for the most part, the colour all comes from using various snippets of patterned paper.
I have not one, but two masculine birthday cards to share with you today! They have very different colour schemes. The first is monochromatic, and the second is rainbow coloured. Both of them really focus on stamping.
It has been a while since I last made a floral card. This one isn’t purely floral, but it does have flowers on it, so it counts! I had wanted to post this earlier today but, well… I hadn’t made it. I should have started earlier in the day. Oh well. The important thing is … More Floral Coffee | CAS Birthday Card
