Ruby is AWESOMEEE!

Wednesday, 22 July 2009


Let me say that again (cos it was fun haha)... Ruby is AWESOMEEE!

Yep, that girl could be made the Minister for Creativity ANYwhere! I am terrible with explaining things, so I'll post some excerpts of the emails we have sent back and forth to each other. Just click on the image above so that it is readable.

We want a name for this 'thing' that we are just beginning. Email me your ideas at trswift@hotmail.com, or leave a comment here. We'd GREATLY appreciate it, because for the life of us... we cannot seem to think of a name ourselves >.<

Think, pen pals gone creativity craaaazy :)
{EDIT: I'm keeping this @ the top for a few days.. PLEASEEE help us :) }

My Grafico Challenge

Saturday, 18 July 2009

Steph over at her blog, Papercrafterthoughts is promoting a card challenge for My Grafico to win this cute stamp set by Kelly Medina. All you have to do is create a card which is fruit-inspired. Simple, fun and with a chance to win stamps! What more could you ask for? Definitely take some time to look through Steph's creations...she is simply AWESOME! I know I say this about a lot of people, but I mean it. Steph is oozing talent and creativity. Go see for yourself :)


Here is my card.. I made it immediately as I saw her challenge! You'd better believe it hahaha.

Mojo Monday Week 95

Yep, you read correctly....Merry Christmas! I am not exactly sure why I made a festive card, but I just had a vision, and went with my gut. I really like it :) (I know.. I'm soooo modest LOL!) It was for Mojo Monday Week 95.


Enjoy your weekend.

Polka Dot Punches

Sunday, 12 July 2009

Quick card I made yesterday. Versamark stamped the circles on the card base, and chalk-dusted them with light blue and green. The rest is pretty much self-explanatory. Enjoy your weekend :) Check out my other blogs here and here; as I'm on holidays.. I have much more time to be creating and posting much more often. I'll try and make it around to your blogs :)

Mojo Monday Week 93

Sunday, 5 July 2009

Haven't done one of these in a while. Mojo Monday Week 93 can be found here. Sometimes the mind is just so fizzled and I'm feeling so uncreative, and mojo-less, that a challenge or in this case, a sketch is just what I need to kick start the card making juices again :) Not sure if the kick wan't good enough this morning, but there's something about this card. It's definitely not something I usually make - colours, patterns, layout, etc. It's not horrific I guess, but I'm not exactly fond of it either. Despite this, you guys ROCK and always find some constructive criticism for my less-than-loved cards!


Drop me a line, and enjoy your weekend folks :)

It's Your Day

Saturday, 4 July 2009


Made this card the other day. I was feeling good, and I really love how the card turned out! Fresh, clean lines, and bright :) I might be back with a Mojo Monday card (hopefully I'll make the cut off), but that is reliant on my ability to get started on an English assignment due on Thursday. Til then, enjoy your day! I'll try and make it around to a few of your blogs. Comments will sure to get me there haha; so pop by and say hi :)

First card in...

Saturday, 27 June 2009

...HOW LONG?!

Wow! So I can't even remember how long it has been since I made a card. It's been so long, that I can't even remember! Sad.. I know. For both of us hahaha :)

Well tomorrow, hopefully the sun will shine brightly in Sydney and I will be able to take a photo of the reaaaally pretty card I made tonight. It is ready for my friends birthday on August 1st. So yep, I'm getting prepared birthday-wise reasonably early... HSC starts on October 21st I think.

Can we say, THAT'S SOOOOO CLOSE & STRESSFUL :D ...minus the smiley face for me hahaha. Actually I'm quite cool, calm and collected at the moment. We'll see how I hold up. Catch you tomorrow hopefully!

Polka Dot Punches

Sunday, 24 May 2009


Yesterday Marcia Pringle from The Stamp Spot left a comment on my previous Polka Dot Punches card and suggested taking a look on SCS for some inspiration. I was really having trouble coming up with any ideas, which normally come to me when I get my hands on a new set. I have used SCS for inspiration and ideas before, but I just always seem to forget about it. If you want to take a look, just click here, and you can search for specific sets from SU! easily.

I sourced my ideas from this card here, and changed it up a little bit. I guess you could call it a partial-CASE :) Thanks Marcia for reminding me about SCS, and thanks to Nichole for inspiring me!


{EDITED: New photos using el' natural light haha, rather than some dodgy desk lamp that shine yellow light onto my cards}
