Modern florals

I loved designing this set of bonus papers for Cardmaking and Papercraft Issue 206 March. They're a lovely bright colour palette, and have that abstract hand-look that is very on trend currently. You can download them for free here!

Garden Party Bumper pack

New Party Decorations

New Malibu, bright and wedding releases from Talking Tables feature some of my designs, including tassel bunting, pom pom flowers, honeycomb pineapples, lanterns and many more! Below are a few snapshots of the ranges I worked on. I especially like the honeycomb bird decorations, with silver foil. All available to buy online here.

Birds, butterflies and flowers

I've been commissioned to design a lot of butterflies, birds and floral papers this year which I wanted to share with you, as they're always great for every day card makes.

Goodbye to an old friend...

I was very sad to hear the news recently that Craftseller magazine has ceased publication. I've had some fun designing for their free paper sets over the years. I thought I'd show you a quick round up of a few commissions I had this year. Starting with January issue 45 Craftseller, I designed a Parisian themed paper pack free with the mag including icons such as champagne, croissants and pretty perfume bottles, as well as a retro themed geometric set of bonus papers which came with card ideas inside the mag...

Issue 47 March Issue of Craftseller had a set of butterflies and birds papers I designed with a collagey feel, layers of textures and pattern. I love this set, it's one of my favourite this year!...

Issue 48 April Craftseller contained a circus themed set I designed with some super cute box-card ideas their designers came up with! Also an exclusive 'Vintage Americana' set of 52 papers and tags as a cover gift including icons like hot dogs and burgers, 50's retro signage, retro diner-style icons etc.

May issue 49 had some lovely origami cards made from the oriental style floral papers I designed...

Issue 50 went down an Art Nouveau route with bold, green and peach organic shapes and repeated icons of the era with some wedding invite ideas... 

Easel Cards and Decoupage

March issue 136 Papercraft Inspirations magazine had some Spring themed papers with bird decoupage ideas for cards I worked on, and the papers are still free to download here. This issue also came with a free 'Floral Fancies Luxury Easel Card Kit' with online video instructions here.
