You just have to wait and see!

Butterflies blogging

I have an order for some butterfly cards. I am going to make a few different cards and let the customer pick the ones they would like.
I will never forget when we visited a butterfly sanctuary in Cairns

One could stay there all day as it is such a lovely place

Love Raspberry Red paper


I have made various cards this afternoon and this is my favourite.
The flower on this card is done in raspberry red and I have included a small amount of "bling"
The side border on this card is a Kaiser paper border over washi tape.
My next card will include a butterfly as I have an order for some cards specifically with butterflies

Let The Sunshine In

With this card I have used pink Kaiser paper as a background. Then burgundy red for the concave petals on the flower with a pink edge.
A nice change from roses.

Quilled embellishments for Flower Fairy


The timeless quality of Flower fairies and quilling come together in my latest card.
I am enjoying using these fairy pictures which came free with a UK papercraft magazine.
Since taking this photo I added some extra bling in a spiral connecting the butterfly and the fairy. These extra touches quite often come to mind after viewing the photo of my work.
By the way, hello to all my 70 followers!

I Love Pink and .....quilling

This card has a pretty "Kaiser" paper as a background. I have placed spiral roses on a heart cut from a lace doily.
The paper is inspiring and so are the others in the Kaiser pad. There are so many lovely papers to choose from these days.
