Creative mayhem in every layer | TV Demo | Creator of #SketchMayhem | Teaming up with brands that embrace the creative mayhem.

I love cards that tell a little story, and this on I love cards that tell a little story, and this one might be one of my favourites 💙

This sweet scene was created using the Love Is in the Air Stamp & Die Bundle from @simonsaysstamp and it’s perfect for those “just because” moments when you want to let someone know how much you love spending time with them 🥰

From the cosy park bench to the heart balloons floating over the city skyline, this set makes scene building so easy — and that sentiment couldn’t be more perfect 💕

Would you keep this soft and airy like I have, or go bold with colour? Let me know 👇

Anyone fancy being nosey at my package? 👀📦 Because Anyone fancy being nosey at my package? 👀📦
Because this Altenew delivery was far too good not to share…

A mix of brand new goodies and some long-time wishlist items – aka the most dangerous kind of order 😅

✨ The new Stella Sequins – honestly, the sparkle is unreal
🌼 The Buttercup Bunch Craft-A-Flower Set – already planning far too many cards with this
🖤 And finally… the Metallic Pigment Inks I’ve been eyeing up forever – cannot WAIT to get these inky

My bank account might be questioning my choices… but my craft room is thriving 💁‍♂️
Tell me – what would you have added to your basket?

I’m so excited to finally share this card created I’m so excited to finally share this card created using the Butterfly Swirl Press Plate & Die Set from @teamspellbinders 🦋✨

This also marks the start of a brand new affiliation for me, and I honestly couldn’t be happier. The detail you get from the BetterPress system is just beautiful, and these butterflies are perfect for adding colour, movement, and dimension to your cards.

✨ Bonus treat for you ✨
@teamspellbinders are currently offering 20% off orders of £120 or more, which makes it the perfect time to stock up on favourites or try something new.

I’ve linked everything over on the blog so you can see how this card came together and shop the supplies if you’re tempted 💕

I couldn’t not create a love card for the Heart to Heart Release from @simonsaysstamp 🥰

This card features the Clear Words of Love Stamp Set, and honestly… it’s one of those sentiment sets you’ll reach for again and again. I love how the words can be the star of the card or used subtly in the background for extra meaning.

For this design, I layered stamped hearts over a soft pink blended background, added a bold Love You sentiment, and finished it off with twine and sparkle for a romantic, dimensional look ✨

Perfect for anniversaries, Valentine’s Day, or just because 💌

If you’ve ever wondered how to turn flat die cuts into soft, realistic paper flowers, this little tool set makes all the difference.

In this reel I’m using the Petal Shaper Tool Set from Altenew to shape and sculpt floral layers, giving them movement, depth, and a more lifelike finish.

I’ve shared the full step-by-step process over on YouTube, where I go into more detail and show exactly how I use each tool.
