It never rains...

...but by golly it's wet out there!

I had a fabulous weekend at a dog Agility show this weekend in the south of England... although Saturday morning was a washout, the afternoon was pretty dry. The rain overnight though was so loud on the caravan, with the wind shaking it too, I didn't sleep much. Sunday was a lot drier but this afternoon the rain has struck again with a vengeance, fortunately I got the dogs walked in a short dry spell.

I hope you had a lovely weekend and enjoyed Thursdays Tutorial, I have a few more coming this week and todays' is for a box I designed to hold some cards I made.

Here are the cards...





I used the Polka Dot Parade DSP, Whisper White Taffeta ribbon, Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die, Vintage Faceted Buttons and Linen Thread.

Here is the box...


... and with the cards inside


Did you spot that neat little fastening system? It uses the Tag Topper Punch, a small punched circle using the Itty Bitty Punch pack and a Silver Mini Brad.


Here is the video tutorial - I hope you'll have as much fun making the box as I did!

Dynamic Duos Challenge #67

Goodness is it nearly Thursday already? I'm just in time to submit my entry for the Dynamic Duos Challenge this week! You can visit the blog HERE

This week the colour scheme is Calypso Coral with Crisp Cantaloupe.


My card is a really simple one that had me reaching for my Big Shot.

The apertures were cut in the card stock using the Ovals Framelits, the top mat was embossed using the Polka Dot embossing folder. The butterflies were punched using the Elegant Butterfly and the  Bitty Butterfly punches, and also embossed using the Polka Dot folder.

The flourish behind was stamped using one of the Flowering Flourishes stamps.


I just love this colour combo and really enjoyed making this card!

Now you really need to come back tomorrow for the release of the NEW Seasonal Catalogue jam packed full of scrummy goodies! Don't forget now!

You can order from me wherever you are in the UK, Germany, France, Holland or Austria. So do get in touch if you have any questions - you can email me by clicking here

See you bright and early with that exciting new book of loveliness!
