Issue 18 Make Special Cards features gardening themed stamps I designed and cute piggy themed cards! Check out the gorgeous cards the crafters made from my papers and stamps below...

Dollar Tree designs

I received some samples from Pink Light Studio that were designs I did for Dollar Tree in USA. It's really interesting to see how the on-screen design translates onto different materials. The shells/coral design I did below looks quite different in Pantones on a towelling material- much brighter, but quite fun actually!

Oriental Dreams

Issue 179 of Papercraft Inspirations magazine has a set of oriental stamps and toppers I designed, and some great card ideas in the mag too from Julie Gibbs! The set includes repeatable background floral stamps and borders...

Floral digital papers

Issue 175 Papercraft Inspirations magazine features a set of floral and vase papers and card ideas I designed which are very versatile and can be used for Mother's day, thank you cards, birthdays etc.

I had loads of fun creating 3D paper roses to add to the cards, and instructions on how to do this are in the mag. The papers can be downloaded for free here.

Afternoon tea

Issue 168 Papercraft Inspirations magazine features some afternoon tea papers and card designs I worked on. They have a vintage floral feel and good for all sorts of occasions. You can download the digital papers free here and get printing and making!

Make Christmas Cards 2016

Make Christmas Cards 2016 features dash hounds, scottie dogs and tartan for one set, which are all the rage in crafting at the moment (which I loved designing!) starry night and floral papers, toppers and tags alongside a cute character set. This mag is worth £20 and contains 221 pieces to get crafty with! Available here online.

Papercraft Inspirations round up!

Seems I forgot to mention a few paper designs and card making ideas of mine that were released this Autumn/Winter with Papercraft Inspirations magazine! As they're all still available to download for free I thought I'd post a link to a few so you don't miss out...

'Vintage Treasures' is a 'granny's attic' type set with pretty lace, buttons and vintage style fabric patterns. Great for all round card makes of any theme, so if you have birthdays coming up or thank you cards to make, these would be great!

Also with Issue 129 was a free folded flower card kit cover gift I designed, all you need to make 10 pretty flower embellishments and 5 cards – die-cut patterned papers, luxury adhesive pearls and designer card blanks. Back copies of the mag are available with this free gift.

Retro style 'Fifties Kitchen' printables were with Issue 130 and are still available to download here. These are great for those chefs and baking-loving peeps among us (like my sister at 'Lizzie's Tasty Journey' blog)! 

Back to school!

The summer is over already and kids are back to school already! Where is this year going!?

I designed a set of Autumnal and 'Back to School' themed papers for Cardmaking and Papercraft's September Issue and free printable downloads are available here. The cute chicks with briefcases and apples paper are perfect for making cards for the kids first day back, or for the kids to make for their teachers!...

Floral Pincushion

It was lovely to see Cross Stitch Crazy's cover gift with this months mag! I designed a floral wreath to be converted into cross stitch for a decorative pin cushion, and it's great to see how it turned out! I received the cute gift in the post today. Lovely photo shoots in the mag too!...

Die cuttting Stencil

Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine's August issue comes with a free floral diecutting stencil that I designed, and loads of card and tag make ideas in the mag. There are also a set of bonus papers with a 'Moroccan Chic' theme, which was a fun and different geometric set to design. They are available for free download here.

Craftseller

The March issue of Craftseller is out now and contains seven Mother's Day floral papers I designed along with a sheet of tags...

Mother's Day Makes

Papercraft Inspirations Issue 123 is out this month with a set of floral Mother's Day papers and card ideas. They are free to download here and print from home. Don't forget March 30th!

Damask Rose

Cardmaking and Papercraft have a set of embossing folders I designed exclusively for them in next month's Issue, on sale 20th February! They will have some great ideas for how to use them to create cards in the mag, so look out for that in the shops!

Dolland & Devaux

Dolland & Devaux is a gifting range that was released in Tesco over the Christmas period, and some items are still available to purchase online. It included all sorts of gifting items, like this mini sewing kit above, and toiletry bags, knitwear, stationery, kitchen and gardening gifts. Attached are some of my favourites from the range. I helped to design this range from the floral and knitwear patterns, through to product and packaging. It's really great to see the products finally come to life!
