Hi Cutie

Stella is a great character - she reminds me of my lovely nanna.   A sentiment for inside - make a birthday wish.

Man of the moment

Mancards often take a backseat to our other creative efforts but I really like the challenge they provide.   Most men I know like quirky cards rather than sentimental ones.

Here is a CAS version.  I love this stamp set as you get to choose accessories (eg. this time a hat and monocle).

Fifty?  Masculine card for a hunter.  I hope it looks a bit like a trophy wall.  Happy Birthday Deer.
The colour has gone a bit weird in the photos - the background is actually brown!

Rhiannon - 10 years old

Hi it's Rhiannon here (10 years old).  I have another card that I made at Nonna's house.  I don't have a blog so she lets me use hers.

I used her stamps and her diecutter machine.  And her glitter glue and special pens to colour them.  I am learning how to shade.

I hope you like my card.

Rhiannon W
