This month we will be making three cards from easy to intermediate, featuring one I made for our wedding anniversary.  With Mother’s Day fast approaching I did a different colour and for a birthday version I put butterflies instead of hearts flying out of the envelope.  With your favourite colour and different greetings it makes a lovely, versatile card for any occasion.

For those who visited the recent Melbourne PaperArts show I featured a small/gift card using washi tape and the punched mini-envelope. Very cute!  This standard sized card is another great use of the versatile mini-envelope.

I’ll be sticking to the envelope theme and we will also make a card with a big envelope creatively using the Sizzix label framelits.

Website goes live!  Welcome.

I've loved everything papercrafts for almost as long as I can remember - even when you couldn't get any supplies!  I would scour the shops from discount to high end art supplies stores for anything I could find.  I remember having to buy huge sheets to cut up just to get a textured red Christmas card!

Now I've been given a wonderful opportunity to become part of a papercrafts industry just brimming with amazing products.

I love the way you can turn something unusual into a unique card, invitation or little gift for someone special.

It's been a long journey from finding and buying a cache of great stock in Ballarat to going live today.

It's all been possible because of so many wonderful, helpful people and I thank them all.

It's exciting to be able to share with you the beautiful papers, amazing ribbons and all the bling and embellishments we now have.

See us online, at one of the many great Melbourne papercraft shows or join our classes, starting soon.

Get ready for more beautiful papercraft products which we are loading onto the website as soon as we can get them photographed!
