I rarely make minimalist "clean and simple" cards, but sometimes circumstances leave me with no alternative.

Black ice Valentine
Amazingly I got this Valentine card made well in time and wasn't rushing around at the last minute trying to come up with an idea like I often am. Rather than do the usual Copic colouring, I decided to keep to a simple graphic design and use the opportunity to play with some techniques instead.… Continue reading Black ice Valentine
Valentine robot
The combination of feeling utterly uninspired and also wanting to avoid a repeat of last year's slightly misjudged Valentine card design left me in a bit of a quandary as to what to do for this Valentine's day. Doing nothing was definitely not an option. I remembered that I had a couple of robot picture… Continue reading Valentine robot
Skull and crossbones
Valentine’s Day take 2. After the slight misjudgement in the choice of design for my original card, I had to come up with a replacement. Luckily, Valentine’s Day fell in the middle of the latest Daily Marker colouring challenge, so I had other images to choose from, including this skull with the heart eyepatch. Now,… Continue reading Skull and crossbones

I spotted this digi the other day while browsing through The Paper Shelter's large catalogue of images (so many lovely digis; I restrained myself and only… Continue reading Barber shop Valentine
Deadpool Valentine
My other half came back from Brussels last weekend with a horrid cold and I thought I’d managed to avoid it, but no such luck. Add to that a weekend visit from my brother, which meant a lot more talking than usual, and now my voice has disappeared almost completely. Luckily I don’t need to… Continue reading Deadpool Valentine
Valentine’s Day: Mini bots
The first of my catch-up posts. This card was originally created on February 12th, which means this post is only three months late. These mini bots are just so cute, they were perfect for a Valentine card for my other half. The third bot is supposed to be a Cupid with his hand-drawn arrow, but… Continue reading Valentine’s Day: Mini bots
