All Set for Tomorrow!

The samples are packed, the products are ready and I'm looking forward to a wonderful day at The Art of Craft tomorrow!

Here's one of the cards I'll have with me, created using the fabulous Beach Collection by Sue Wilson. I love how the three little beach scenes tell their own seaside story, from sandcastles and beach balls to flip-flops, sunglasses and a sunny day by the shore.

I'll be demonstrating throughout the day with not one, but three exciting collections:

My Brush Strokes Collection
Beach Collection by Sue Wilson
The Brand New DL Birthday Stamps

There will be lots of samples to see, techniques to share and plenty of inspiration for your future projects. Whether you're interested in dies, stamps, backgrounds or creative card layouts, there's something for everyone.

If you're in the area, do pop in and say hello. I'd love to see some familiar faces and meet new crafty friends too!

Safe travels to everyone visiting and I'll see you tomorrow!

Wish You Were Here

I'm sharing another card created with the gorgeous Beach Collection by Sue Wilson, featuring a tranquil seaside sunset scene that instantly transports you to warmer shores.

The design is built around a framed beach view, with softly blended sunset skies reflected across the ocean. Layered palm trees create depth and drama, while textured sandy dunes, delicate sea grasses, starfish and seashells bring the foreground to life. A touch of sparkle on the water adds the perfect finishing touch, capturing the glow of the setting sun.

The sentiment "Wish You Were Here" beautifully complements the peaceful coastal scene and makes this card perfect for sending a thoughtful message to family and friends.

If you'd like to see these beautiful dies in action, I'll be demonstrating the Beach Collection by Sue Wilson at The Art of Craft Demo Day on 6th June, where the collection will be available to purchase. I'll be showcasing lots of samples, techniques and creative ideas using these fabulous beach-themed dies, so do come along and say hello if you're able to make it.

I hope this little glimpse of paradise brightens your day and inspires your next crafty project!

Sending Sunshine

Today's card features another beautiful design created with the Beach Collection by Sue Wilson, bringing all the warmth and relaxation of a perfect day by the sea.

The focal point is a peaceful beach scene framed within an elegant oval aperture, complete with a golden sun setting over gently rolling waves. A cosy deckchair sits beneath a beach umbrella, ready for a day of rest and relaxation, while a beach bag, sunglasses and tiny seashell details add extra seaside charm.

The beautifully coloured palm tree creates a striking focal feature and really helps to bring the tropical feel of the scene to life. Soft shades of blue, cream and sand give the card a fresh and calming look, perfectly complementing the sentiment "Sending Sunshine."

This collection is proving so versatile, allowing you to create everything from tropical escapes and coastal landscapes to fun summer-themed cards filled with delightful details.

Don't forget, I'll be demonstrating the Beach Collection by Sue Wilson, along with my Brush Strokes Collection and the brand-new DL Birthday Stamps, at The Art of Craft Demo Day on Saturday 6th June.

Best Wishes from the Beach!

Today's card features another beautiful selection of dies from the Beach Collection by Sue Wilson, combined with the gorgeous Beach Waves Background to create a relaxing coastal scene.

The oval focal element showcases the intricate Beach Waves design, layered over a sparkling glitter background that catches the light beautifully and brings the feeling of rolling ocean waves to life. Framed with soft pink decorative ovals, it creates the perfect setting for a peaceful day at the seaside.

I added a pastel beach umbrella and deckchair resting on the sand, along with a rustic signpost pointing the way to the beach, cliffs and resort. Delicate seaweed, shells and a tiny starfish complete the scene, adding lovely finishing touches and extra seaside charm.

The soft pink, cream and mint colour palette keeps everything fresh and summery, while the sparkle behind the Beach Waves Background adds plenty of shimmer and interest.

Finished with a simple "Best Wishes" sentiment, this card would be suitable for many occasions and is perfect for sending a little sunshine through the post.

Fun, Friends & Flipflops!

I'm back today with another cheerful card from the fabulous Beach Collection by Sue Wilson. This one is all about those perfect summer days spent with good friends, sunshine and, of course, flipflops!

For this design I've used soft pastel pinks, creams and mint greens to create a fresh summery feel. The focal point is the cute beach umbrella, accompanied by a bucket of colourful ice lollies, tiny sandcastles and a trail of flipflop prints running down the side of the card. The layered postage-edge frames add lovely dimension while keeping the design clean and elegant.

The sentiment "Fun, Friends & Flipflops" says it all and would be perfect for a summer birthday, holiday greeting or simply to brighten someone's day.

I do love how these little beach-themed elements work together to create such a happy scene. They really capture the feeling of carefree summer days by the seaside.

Wish You Were Here!

Today I'm sharing a sweet seaside-inspired card made with elements from the Beach Collection by Sue Wilson. I absolutely love the soft pastel colours and all the fun little details – from the beach umbrella and tote bag to the sunglasses and flip-flops. They instantly make you think of warm sunshine and relaxing days by the sea!

The background has been embossed with a gorgeous swirling texture and layered with postage frames to create depth and interest. The sentiment, "Wish you were here," finishes the design perfectly and would be ideal for sending holiday wishes or letting someone know you're thinking of them.

I hope this card brings a little bit of summer to your day.

Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!
