Wishing you a beautiful day

I just love Cupcake Cards and Crafts creator, Mandy, style - she is one of the queens of clean and simple with a very modern twist!  And this card is typical of her lovely style...

Isn't it gorgeous and fresh!  Mandy used the fresh and modern Refreshers papers which has 41 papers in "refreshing" pinks, greens, yellows and orange.  Here's a look at the accessory papers...

 

You can get them in the shop here!

Home decoration time!

I must say that I would love to make something more than just cards, but alas I have very little time to be creative!  But our talented Jo has created something very special for us today...

 

WOW!!  This gorgeous hanging ornament is made with the Patriotic paper collection which has 27 papers and even though they are red and navy, Jo has shown how versatile they can be!   Here's a peek at some of the papers...

 

 

I've gotta get more creative and give these flowers a go!  You can get them in the shop here!

 

 

Full of flowery goodness!

Take a look at this sweet make by our sweet, talented Jo...

Just gorgeous, huh?!  I just love the sweet butterflies and how she has framed that sweet girl with that beautiful flower arrangement!  Jo used the very modern Mod Podge papers which has 20 Papers including textured patchy washed solids, accessory papers and flowers and leaves papers.   Take a closer look...

 Oh, I think I'm going to have to pop this into my shopping basket myself!  Back soon with more June creativity!

Happy graduation day!

Got any kids about to graduate?  If so, you will want to take a look at this fabulous card by our Tammy...

What a gorgeous way to frame that fab sentiment and I love how she used the twine and buttons - so beautifully put together!   Tammy has used the Last Summer papers (on the right hand side) - which is a gorgeous shade of blue.

See you tomorrow with more June design team creativity!

You make me smile every day

And this card by our lovely Mandy definitely puts a smile on my face! 

 

Mandy once again manages to combine clean simple lines with a rocking modern take on distressed papers!  I can never do this style - I always want to add something more but Mandy knows just when to stop perfectly!  She used the distressed solid blue papers from the Bunches of Roses collection, a great demonstration on how versatile these papers are!  Check out some of the co-ordinating papers...

So beautiful, no?  Just love this shabby chic collection!  You can get them in the shop here!
