Fish Tank Pop Up

 This fabulous card was born from a hospital trip with my son!!! I have seen this design on pinterest a number of times but it is always just one mechanism and is usually something like a vase of flowers. Anyone that has ever had a teenage boy knows that conversation can be minimal especially when they are being forced to do something that removes them from tings that they enjoy, such as a hospital trip! When I finally resigned myself to the fact that I would be getting no more conversation I started to look around and saw a huge floor to ceiling fish tank but did not really pay it much attention. I finally got my phone out and started to scroll on pintrest and saw the vase card again and had a light bulb moment! I have make a double mechanism and make a fish tank!!! 

And so my fish tank card was born

Stand up Shaker Card

 OhI have forgotten how much I enjoy making scene cards, it felt so good to dust off my copic markers and create this adorable christmas card. You could use what ever you want on the main panel, pre printed images, ephemera or stamps just have fun

Shadow Box

 Time for a new release over at Sweet November Stamps and can you believe it is time for the Halloween release already?? No, me neither, I have not had my summer holiday yet!!

As always Amy, over at Sweet November Stamps has not disappointed and the release is jam packed full of fabulous designs. For those in the UK, you can grab the full collection from Crafty Purple Frog, the UK's exclusive stockist.

I thought a floating shadow box would be perfect to add to the spookiness of Halloween

Triple Diamond Floating Card

 With a new release from Sweet November Stamps just around the corner it is time to have a play with a previous Halloween release. This stamp set is from last year. I love every stamp within the set and really wanted to showcase it all but could not decide on how best to integrate them all without making the card way way too busy but remembered the floating diamond panel card and I think it works perfectly

Flip Flap Card - Sweet November Stamps New Release

 Time for a another new release over at Sweet November Stamps as as always the ladies from Crafty Purple Frog have been asked to participate in the Instagram and YouTube hop. 

I really could not decide which stamps to use from the Berry Love set and so decided to use a flip flap shutter design to show off two scenes.
