Off late I've found myself quite hooked on Mini Albums!! I guess all of us crafters go through these phases and clearly I'm no exception. Today I've got a new album to share with you - it's a vintage bridal album!The album wasn't always a vintage bridal album... it was supposed to just be a vintage album. Then as I got crafting, I found myself adding roses, then more roses and even more - until finally it looked seriously bridal! Which is why I have re-christened it a Vintage Bridal album.All the Read more...

Butterflies is a very popular theme for little girl birthday parties. It's sweet, it's pretty and so girly. I was recently asked to do a few toppers for a butterfly party and I figured what better way to do it than with the Sizzix Bigz Butterfly Die.This die is awesome because it comes with the butterfly shape as well as all the elements inside it like the wing decoration, the body and the antennae. You can add them in different ways to decorate your butterfly. The other thing I love about this die Read more...

I love making explosion boxes!!! They are so unique and fun - a great way to make a card into a gift and vice versa. I recently did a wedding themed explosion box which provides space to record details about a couple's relationship - almost like a scrapbook in a box!Here is a view of the box when it's closed - in addition to the lovely bow for lid, I also created this massive rose using some pink punch paper from ItsyBitsy. Nothing says love and weddings like roses and I wanted this one to be really Read more...

The colours are all rich and festive in the traditional 'shaadi' colours. I layered some ochre card stock Read more...
