Muse Challenge #155

I thought I had got into a good routine with baby Stan, managing to fit in a little crafting whilst he napped during the day.  Turns out he has other ideas and seems to have flipped his routine on its head.  Still, he does seem to be sleeping a little better at night now so… Read More Muse Challenge #155

SSS Monday Challenge: spritz and spray

Another quick post this evening, sneaking it in before the baby wakes up! On the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge blog this week the challenge is ‘spritz and spray’.  I knew straight away I had to enter as I have had an idea for a card in my head for quite a while and this… Read More SSS Monday Challenge: spritz and spray

Time Out Challenge #49, Muse #151

Dashing in to post a card before I miss the deadline! I would like to enter this card into two challenges.  There is an ‘inspired by words’ challenge over at Time Out Challenges this week and the phrase is “Love is the flower you’ve got to let grow”, and the Muse Challenge inspiration card is… Read More Time Out Challenge #49, Muse #151

Muse Challenge #62

This week’s challenge over at Muse is inspired by this gorgeous card by Vicki Dutcher: I needed to make a New Home card for some friends so I used the layout from Vicki’s card and similar colours. I used the Sweet Bird House set from Card-io with Hero Arts Mid Tone inks in Mint Julep… Read More Muse Challenge #62

Babies, babies, babies…

I have got to that age now where alot of my friends have begun to start their families. That means lots of new baby cards on the horizon. I have always struggled to make baby cards, seemingly always coming up with something pastel and generic. I recently saw a fab technique in Craft Stamper magazine… Read More Babies, babies, babies…

Welcome to Poppaea Cards!

Hi, I am Christine, an Independant Stampin' Up! demonstrator, based in Marlow, England. I love nothing more than playing with card, stamps and ink. Sometimes I make a masterpiece, sometimes I make a mess but I always enjoy the process!

Thanks for reading!

I made a hat! It’s not perfect, it doesn’t look like it’s supposed to, but it’s a hat. And I made it! First time crocheting (after some failed attempts in the past) and I loved it, it is so much more forgiving than knitting. Thank you @makebox.co for walking me through it. I am going to try to make a snood and gloves to go with it now!

Meet Tiny! She has been showing some odd behaviour and been out during the daytime, so we have had her checked over by a specialist. She is dehydrated so has been taken away to be given some fluids and get her weight up. All being well, she will be back with us in a few days. #hedgehog #hedgehogsofinstagram #hedgehogstreet #natureinmybackyard #tiny
Thank you cards for Stan’s carers at nursery. Really quick and easy design in order to be able to make them in bulk. I used my #misti to make 5 cards in 30 minutes. Entering this into #aaacardchallenge where the theme is made in minutes.
Stan’s last day at nursery today so we made these #seedpackets full of #wildflowers as leaving gifts for the other children.
Well this has been my favourite #mymakebox so far. Really therapeutic and relaxing, and because of the nature of the project, easy to pick up and pop down whilst looking after the kids. This #rainbowwreath will be going up in my daughter’s nursery.
Change of address cards for my Mummy with this gorgeous stamp from @jofyjo Entering this card into the @aaacardchallenge where the theme is one image
We were lucky enough to find this beautiful dress at a pop up for @wearswilliam and couldn’t wait to try it on. Wren loves her rattle from @albettaonline thank you @fannymarms 😚
Horrid day much improved by some fresh cut flowers from the garden. #hydrangea #freshflowers #flowerstotherescue #homegrown #naturalbeauty #makeabaddaybetter
