Dragonfly Girl Fat Page


These are some of my favourite Paper Artsy stamps. I just love the dragonfly. I coloured the background with Distress Inks and stamped using a black Brilliance inkpad.

My Time To Craft Challenge - Birds

I used some Grungeboard for this one. I coloured the background with Distress Inks and then stamped with some Paper Artsy and Hero Arts stamps.

My Time To Craft Challenge - Brads and Eyelets

This Skinny is also for the Flowers book currently in progress on Craft Swap Forum. The background is handmade paper with blue glitter flowers. I coloured some chipboard flowers with Distress Inks and attached them with some Papermania brads. I added some Papermania eyelets and threaded through a co-ordinating sheer ribbon.

Sunday Stampers Challenge - Dogs

I managed to find some dog stamps in a set of Christmas See Ds! The paper is from Dovecraft's Pets range.

What a Hoot!

This ATC is made using some clear Hero Arts stamps given to me by Pickleypoo for my birthday. The background is Distress Inks on paper and the moon is from a Paper Artsy Mystery plate.

Sunday Stampers Challenge - Sisters

I thought these ladies could be sisters as they were all immortilized in paint by Leonardo da Vinci. I made the background using Distress Inks and added some eyelets, gold sheer ribbon and a Prima flower. The stamps come from a set by Cherry Pie and can be bought from Scrapz.

First Large Gothic Arch

For this first attempt I used some HOTP Sara Papers from the Sapphire book. The tag and glassine envelope come from the same book. The fibres come from the co-ordinating fibre pack. The stamped image is from Catslife Press. I shall definitely be making more of these.

Gatefold Gothic Arch ATC


I'm getting quite keen on these. This one is made from handmade paper and uses an Aridondack Woodland ink pad. I have used stamps from K & Co, Catslife Press and Paper Artsy, plus a piece of gold mirri card for the central image.

Pink Cat Studio



I love these stamps! They are great. This set is perfect for ATCs (or should that be purrfect??) I had a cat once who would have travelled by handbag given the chance!

Sunday Stampers Challenge - Cats

Oo-er, a bit weird and creepy! I made this Fat Book page with white card, edged with Black Soot Distress Ink. Then I stamped some runes from Paper Artsy Mystery Plate 2 and a bird from Wings Plate 3. The cat image (from the same set as the runes) was stamped separately on white card and added.

My Time To Craft Challenge - Dark Hair

This Victorian lady has got dark hair! I stamped her on Papermania paper and added a gold mirri card and different pattern paper as a border. I attached a gold eyelet and threaded through some fibres sent to me with my last Craft Obsessions order.

Grungeboard and Paper Artsy

A good combination! I coloured this ATC with Distress Inks and used stamps from the Wings Plate 4.

Fragrant Garden ATC

I bought some Oriental stamps this week, a set by Inkadinkado. I was just having a little play with them and came up with this ATC. I used an Aridonack Woodland ink pad and some gold peel-offs. I'm very pleased with these stamps.

Some New Dominoes

These are dominoes from The Fruit Pixie. I used Distress Inks and Catslife Press domino stamps to decorate them. I then put ribbon round the edges to give a neat finish.
