Young Love!


My 4 year old son is in love with a little girl in his class. They are best friends and are so cute together. This week is the last week of school, so I made a card for her using this adorable stamp by CTMH (Baby Love). This image reminds me of them, so sweet. The sentiment is from HA (Essential Messages). I'm not crazy about all the pink but my son insisted that that was her favourite colour so it had to have a lot of pink.

Inside he made me write "I love you Anabelle! Call me" and I wrote our phone number. Hopefully they will be able to see each other a few times this summer.

Thanks for looking!

Happy Father's Day!


Happy Father's Day to my fantastic husband! He is such an amazing father to our two little ones. We are so lucky.

I made the Best Dad ribbon with paper and stickers. The world sticker (Jolee's) is the same I used for my Dad's card which I posted last week. I like the way it turned out and more importantly my husband loved it!

I hope everyone had a great weekend!

Father's day card


Here is the card I made for my Dad. The world embellishment is from the same Jolee's Boutique pack as the apple worm and pencil embellies on my cards yesterday. I used my Hero Arts woodgrain stamp (love it for masculine cards) for my background paper and HA Clear Cute Uppercase letters to spell DAD. The dies and argyle stamp are PTI.

I was woken up this morning by my 4 year old asking "Is it ok if I throw up in the toilet?" I scream "YES" (was there any other answer to that question). He did make it in time but he has been throwing up ever since, poor thing. That's the kind of day we are having. Hope yours is a little nicer.

4 cards!!!!


Yep, that's right, I have 4 cards for you today. There are only 2 more weeks of school left, so that means, time to get some thank you teacher cards ready (or in our case, they go to French school, so merci cards - ha!).



Don't you just love the apple with the worm? So cute! They are from Jolee's Boutique (as is the pencil on the third card). The paper is Crate Paper School Spirit 6x6 pad. I love the colours of this collection.





This last one is for my daughter, the last lunch bag card of the year.


Well, it's hotter than the sun here! I hope it cools off a little. I hate saying that after a long winter but really it was tooooo hot today.

Thanks for stopping by!

Thank you cards



Here are some thank you cards I made. I actually made a whole bunch of these little cute ladybugs first(aren't they the cutest! CTMH stamp, love it). Then, I decided to make thank you cards with my HA stamp that I hadn't used yet.


Here is a close up of the cute ladybug. I love the glitter body and I made the antennas out of CTMH waxy flax (PP and ricrac is also CTMH).

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Mother's Day!

Here is the card I made for my mom. I LOVE this card! I love the glittered hearts and the acetate that makes the jar look shiny. I had made it for a submission call but it didn't get chosen (looking at the awful picture, I can see why). I was going to try to submit it again but decided not to. Decided to share it with you guys instead ;)

Hope you are all having a great day!

Mom's Bday card!


This is the card I made for my mom for her birthday. I used the PTI jar stamps again (I just can't seem to get enough of that set). I coloured the image with my copics and really like the muted look on kraft paper. I used vintage photo distress ink on the edges to age it a bit.

I took this picture with my iphone and I'm quite happy with how it turned out.

Well, that's all for today. I'm going to try and make some Christmas cards for the Paper Crafts submission call, the deadline is Monday. I'm having a hard time getting into the Christmas spirit now that spring is finally here, ha.

Have a good one!
