I went with a classic colour palette for this card throwing green out the window for the Feeling Holly theme of the #30DayChristmasCardmakingChallenge. This was quite an unusual palette for me and I absolutely loved how it turned out. The black leaves from the Leaves of Holly stamp set (retired) looked so good that I…
I couldn’t resist this image from the Jolly Words stamp set for our Santa’s Sleigh theme of the #30DayChristmasCardmakingChallenge I stamped the image and then enjoyed the colouring process of this cute image. Then as an afterthought I decided it would be nice to create a moonglow in the back as if Santa and his…
I love trying out non-traditional colour palettes for Christmas and this one set out by Martin Stone for #30DayChristmasCardmakingChallenge was one I really enjoyed. Continuing with my theme of Nostalgic November (I’m caught in a time warp for just a little while until I share all the cards for this challenge) I chose the retired…
I struggled with this theme even though everything about Christmas is fun and a theme of Oh What Fun should have been a breeze. Sometimes, inspiration can take it’s time!

This card was so much fun to create for the #30DayChristmasCardmakingChallenge . I don’t know what my favourite part was – the cloud cream, the timber cinnamon quills, dusting of hot chocolate or just the warmth and cosy feeling this card exudes. I used the Cup of Christmas stamps and dies which is a retired…
I’m having a load of fun with the #30DayChristmasCardmakingChallenge and #nostalgicnovember and really enjoying stretching my creative thinking. This sketch was a bit tricky at first but I just had to get those circles out of my head before the ideas started coming through. I flipped the sketch to be horizontal and it worked for…
There’s just something about the Christmas in the Making stamp set that makes me happy. The nostalgic images just bring a smile to my face and this particular image with the cat was perfect for our No Peeking day for the 30 Day Christmas Cardmaking Challenge. The lady looks like she is holding that present…
