Card Making, Scrapbooking, and Other Random Paper Crafts
A few weeks ago, I was browsing card Instagram, and I came across a fantastic make by @poppy_and_thistle_design. She’d done a great play on Baby Shark, which my almost three year old loves. So, I shamelessly copied her idea and created my own Birthday Shark card for my daughter’s 3rd birthday. I used the same…
Over the weekend my mum asked me if I’d bulk make her a load of Christmas cards, and honestly – I’m a bit scared. That said, I’m always up for a challenge so I figured I would try making two of the same birthday card at once just to see how much longer it would…
I’ve got tons of kids birthdays coming up at the moment, but I’m having a lot of fun making birthday cards for them all. This one was made with the Mama Elephant Everyday Monkeys stamp set, and with the use of a couple of dies, it was super simple to make. The only thing I…
I didn’t have much time to craft last night but I really fancied doing some colouring. Luckily the My Favorite Things Birth-Yay stamp set is perfect for this.

It’s my mother in law’s birthday next month and she just so happens to share it with the Queen. So, when I came across the amazing Clearly Besotted Love London stamp set, I knew I had to have it. What follows is probably one of the weirdest cards ever. Why is the Queen a hippo? …

I’ve been trying to do the Lawn Fawn challenges over the last few months – partly because it gives me an excuse to buy more things, but also because I find it fun to have a direction. As Lawn Fawn are celebrating their twelfth birthday this month, their latest challenge is to create something birthday…
