Morning all. It's time for a new challenge over at Cardz4galz. We are looking for Fun Folds. I'm really enjoying fun folds at the moment so this was just up my street. I think this sort of thing really makes an impact for a special occasion. A friend asked for a special card for her mum so here it is.

Having fun with fun folds
Friday, 18 July 2025
Confused! Sorry
OK, so things have changed a little over at Cardz4guyz. We are now a monthly challenge (the third Tuesday in the month) instead of bi-weekly. And I managed to forget this for our first monthly challange. 'Summer Holidays' is our theme for this month. I've used another one of my beach clipart images as I do love a beach in summer.
Summer Daze
Morning all. I'm a couple of days late for this month's Sparkles Monthly Challenge. Sorry, I've been doing extra at work. We have the theme of 'Summer Days' for you this time. I have some sweet clipart images from Pixel Popsicles on Etsy. It's a full set of more 'mature' beach bodies. I think they are so much fun.
The real tragedy is they've all got better beach bodies than I have!
Please pop over and show us your 'summer days'.
Thanks for reading.

So simple
Morning all. Over at Make My Monday we would like 'embossing - wet or dry' on your projects please. I chose to dig out a small strip embossing folder and emboss it three times on my panel. I then added three different coloured gems to the flower centre. I do think it will look better with a sentiment but I couldn't decide what to do so I will add that later.
I hope you like my project and will pop over to check out the challenge.
Thanks for reading.

Hey there Girlfriend!
Morning all. We are up to 'G for Girlfriend' over at The Alphabet Challenge. I'm really into using clipart at the moment and I found the perfect set on Etsy from The Ink Pot Store. I have had so much fun with these images I've made multiple cards with them.
I really love how these have turned out and there are so many more images in the set.
Please pop over and join in the fun.
Thanks for reading.

Morning all. We are in the middle of Wedding Season at the moment and all the brides must be so pleased with the weather. Over at Cardz4galz we are looking for your 'Wedding' cards or projects. I'm on a mission to get rid of my old stash so you've got bonus cards from me as I just kept creating until I'd used three sheets of 12 x 12 paper. I have a couple of Gnome images left but they will be turned into cards soon.
I made the two fun folds first using the opposite cuts of paper and created the smaller card with some off cuts.

Just add sparkle
Morning all. First of the month means a brand new Sparkles Christmas Challenge. And that's pretty much it. We want 'Sparkle' on you Christmas Projects. I found a topper with a little glitter added and some gorgeous sparkly snowflakes but it's so hard to photograph. You have to believe me, it's so sparkly in real life.
I distressed the edges of my papers and used silver card for my greeting and behind the image.
Please pop over and say hi.
Thanks for reading.
