Penguin wallet


I am really blasting through my gift boxes/wallets etc.
This one is for my eldest Grandson Oliver
and will hold a voucher to his favourite sportswear shop.
It's so much easier when they want to
choose their own clothes lol.

I made it from white card and decorated up using
some old papers from SU called Plaid Tidings.
The closure was badly cut using Basic Dies (SU)
and the wrap has been embossed using an old
Tattered Lace folder.
I punched a circle with matching card
then stamped using an Indigo Blu stamp
called Christmas Word Block in cherry cobbler ink.
This was punched out and layered onto the belly band.
I then added a large O for his name.
To finish off I stamped, punched and dressed
the wee penguin using Penguin Place (SU)
and stuck in place.

I have another two like this to make for
two more Grandsons.

It's bitter cold here today and my Grandson is
in a cross country race wearing a vest and shorts!
Oh to be young lol.
Have a lovely weekend everyone.

Christmas Penguins


Happy Monday.

Today I have another little journal to share,
again with a penguin theme and perfect for Christmas.
This little book came together so quickly and
was great for breaking into more stash!!

You can watch a walk through here

or a quicker version HERE.

I have used stamps called Penguin Place and Sparkling Snowflakes (SU).
Papers are from an old Brenda Pinnock set.
Embellishments used
pompoms, sizzix snowflake dies, gems,
shrink plastic and various inks.

Just chillin'


I had a play with my masks again and some embossing paste
to make the snowflakes onto my background.
I used an older set which is greatly reduced in the clearance rack HERE,
to punch and stamp two little penguins
and the sentiment.

Quick, easy and fun to make.
Like a little child playing dress up with paper dolls.

Our yellow weather warning has been taken down and
we finally have a lovely bright sunny morning!
I seriously have never experienced that amount of rain
for numerous days in a row. The sound of it alone was
deafening! Makes you appreciate a cold dry day!!

Peeping penguins!


This may be the last penguin card for Christmas,
well maybe lol.

I had this die and not had time to play yet
so pulled it out and made this card for a couple for Christmas.

A simple but good fun card to make!
Everything I used is listed below, some prices have been reduced!

Penguin Baubles



Our new challenge theme over at
is Anything stamped (option winter wonderland)!
Perfect excuse to get some more Christmas cards or
December birthday cards made!

We have two lovely prizes up for grabs this month!

For my card I have used Penguin Place AGAIN!
I am sure you are sick seeing it but I am totally in love
with these little penguins and want to play as much as I can
before they disappear! Plus it is greatly reduced at the minute!!

I did a centre bar of dsp with some faux stitching,
 punched two circles and two frames
and turned my penguins into little baubles.
I did add some score board scoring but it's hard to see in
the photo. I will add two tiny bows when my matching
bakers twine arrives.
I hope you get time to join us this month!

I am spending the morning writing out my Christmas cards
and getting them ready for the post in the morning.
Fingers crossed they get there but if not it will cheer you
up in January 😂😍

Penguin Place again!!


Wow we are in December already!!
I honestly can't keep track of the days now!
So I thought I had better get some quick cards together
in case there is a gigantic hold up with the Royal Mail strikes.

I do have a video for my VIP Customers over on facebook.

This little Penguin Place stamp set is retiring BUT
it is greatly reduced, £6.80, in the retired items sale so if you want it
get in there quick!!

Peekaboo Treat Bags!


My tutorial today shows a way to use these cute
peekaboo treat bags as tea gifts.

I picked up some gorgeous loose tea in Belfast
and thought it would make a perfect gift stored
in these bags with an infuser
(which I called diffuser all the way through my video)🙊
