Wildflower Birthday!

This is one of those Suites that you just can't resist.

It's so pretty and feminine and has LOTs of possibilities.

The designer papers are a specialty pack so the designs have gold foiling on one side which makes for some very fancy creating.

Being Birthday themed and the fact that I need alot of Birthday cards ready to send, it was a no brainer that this was a must purchase.


The Pre Cut die pieces in this pack along with coordinting papers make it super simple to create a card like this. There is no die cutting involved and the only stamping is for the sentiment which can then be fussy cut by hand. YES, I know. I did some fussy cutting. I'm just as shocked as you are lol. 

The sentiment was stamped in Misty Moonlight ink on white with stamps from the Birthday Celebration stamp set.

That floral piece I have chosen is one die cut piece and the perfect size to fill a card front. Not much else is needed to dress it up because it becomes the focal point and centre piece of the card.

I finished if off with some Gold Twisted Thread for a blingy bow to tie the bouquet.

Then embellished with some Party Dots.

I'm really happy with this one and it has been placed in the stash ready to be sent to someone this year.

Thank you for stopping by to check out my card for today.

Delightful Wishes

I think it's a no brainer when I say that this is my favourite suite from the new 2025 Mini.

I've always been a lover of florals so the products in this suite are perfect for my type of crafting.

Now I ALWAYS gravitate to the designer paper first when I see new products and the dsp in this collection does not dissapoint.


I started with die cutting some circles out of the Floral Delight dsp with the Stylish Shapes Dies. For a bit of extra interest I also die cut a few from coordinating cardstock as well, just to fill some space, then layed all the cirles out in a random pattern on the background layer also cut from dsp.

I used the bundle to die cut some flowers and the word Wishing. After I ran the Wishing word die through the machine, I noticed the dots to form the i's are so small, they are impossible to pick up and adhere in place, so I came up with an idea.
I used the Ombre Matte Dots and selected the shade of Old Olive that closest matched the cardstock and the size to dot the i's. It's a great alternative to get around that little problem.

 I stamped the small sentiment and then die cut with a die from the bundle that surrounds it.
Then using dimensionals I popped up the wording to give it some depth.
I had to finish the card off with a Tiny Bee Trinket for a small bit of added bling.

I'm so happy with this card and I cant wait to send it on its way to someone soon.

Rainbow Celebrations Kit

I'm so excited to show you these cards.

These are a great example of changing up a kit and making it your own.

This Rainbow Celebrations kit can currently be earned for FREE right now during Sale-a-bration on a qualifying order of $100 AUS or more.



If you check out the Sale-a-bration brochure, on page 4 you can see this kit and all the contents. You get all the elements you need to complete 6 pre printed designs. Thats 2 each of three different designs.

It's such a fun kit however I saw potential to turn them into cards for my local Vet clinic, who for many years now I have been donating Sympathy Cards to for them to send to their clients when they lose a fur baby.

The Rainbow element of the kit is appropriate because when we lose our fur baby family members, they cross Rainbow Bridge.

I have used the now retired Dog Punch for these which is a product I have kept to use specifically for the clinics cards.

I swapped out the sentiments that came with the kit and stamped my own.

Best part is, they come with coordinating envelopes too.

I hope they bring someone comfort in a difficult time.

Thanks fort stopping by to check out my cards today.

Cake Celebrations

Introducing a new Online Exclusive product......the Cake Celebrations bundle.

I actually scrolled past this when it was first released but then as what usually happens, I started seeing many gorgeous cards made with it so I caved and purchased it.

I mean who can resist cake right?


I CASE'd this one straight from Stampin' Up! because I loved the layout and I found it an interesting mix of colours. However I did make a few changes from the original as I didnt have some of the products they used.
I'm always looking to keep lots of birthday cards on hand as they are the card I send out the most.

I've also actually used a variety of new products on this card including some new papers from the just released 2025 Jan to April Mini Catty.
Bokeh makes quite a beautiful background and perfect for a birthday card.

I'm really happy with this one and I look forward to sendinbg it on its way to the next person celebrating a birthday!
