3 for 1

Well hello there – it’s a chilly cold winters day here in Melbourne – so I thought I’d play along with 3 of my favourite challenges:

I used a large background stamp set from The Ton called ‘Dahlia Close Up’ which I clear heat embossed and then ombre watercoloured in with my Altenew watercolours. The sentiment is from Taylor Expressions ‘Simple Strips’ which is white heat embossed on black cardstock. I mounted it all on a black card base and added a few sequins for a final touch.

Well, thanks for looking and enjoy your day.

Hey there! I’m a card-making enthusiast with a passion for creativity that knows no bounds. Currently, I’m fortunate to be a part of four fantastic international card design teams, where I get to explore my craft and connect with fellow artists from all corners of the globe. It’s amazing how the world of card making can bring people together, and I’m constantly inspired by the diversity of styles and ideas that come my way. Beyond my card-making adventures, I lead a pretty busy life in the learning and development field, where I work full time as a Learning Lead. I thrive on helping others grow and reach their full potential, and it’s a role that keeps me on my toes and constantly learning. When I’m not immersed in the world of work or crafting, you can find me on the netball court, coaching and sharing my love for the game with a bunch of amazing individuals. So, whether I’m crafting, guiding professional development, or coaching on the court, I’m all about embracing lifes colorful and creative possibilities! Thanks for stopping by my corner of the web, and I hope you enjoy exploring my card creations and more.
