Another paint and stitch card; this time it's a tree for my brother. The biggest difference with this one is that the design is completely my own.

Paint & stitch bunny
Bunnies are a recurring theme in my card making, so it was only a matter of time before one turned up in paint and stitch form.
Paint & stitch shell
I shall be spending January tidying up after 2024, and that includes writing up projects from last year. The first of those is this floral shell paint & stitch card.
Paint & stitch robot
Another paint and stitch card; this time it's a happy robot who had a difficult journey to reach his destination.
Paint & stitch Beaker
Paint and stitch and more stitch. And different stitches. And my first muppet. Well, I had to put in extra effort for my other half's birthday.
Paint & stitch cats
The second of my paint & stitch cards — a pair of cats this time — and I'm starting to develop and refine the process.
Paint & stitch owl
I came up with a process that would allow me to make interesting embroidered cards without panicking about the number of upcoming birthdays and the work that could involve.
Embroidered Plaza cinema
Keeping up the tradition of never wanting to choose the simple option, I decided to embroider a cinema for this 60th birthday card.
Beer bottle & balloons
Digi stamp design, Copic colouring, Cricut cutting, stamping and heat embossing; this masculine birthday card for my youngest nephew has a little bit of everything.
Translucent flowers
A vague idea, a very old piece of stash, some unused supplies and a touch of bling. That's what this birthday card was made of.
Gelli cat
I really must learn to start planning cards much earlier. I love how my shiny Gelli print kitty turned out but I could do without the time pressure!
A cottage in the hills
Another layered landscape, with even more detail and stitching than the last one I made. This one has a cottage at the heart of it, bolder flowers at the front and, of course, tiny sheep.
Pitcher of tulips
I’ve been doing more stitched projects this year, but it’s always nice to go back to my card-making basics and do a bit of Copic colouring for a change.
Little layered landscape
I did it again. A last-minute idea for a birthday card that required loads of work in a short amount of time. But the finished fabric landscape was definitely worth it.
Electronic robot
Last year I just had to design my own digi stamp, this year's suggestion turned into quite a construction project and I had to draw a robot as well.
