Had fun playing along with this fortnights FUSION creating these two variations on a theme. Both backgrounds were created using Lindy's Stamp Gang Magical Shaker in Afternoon Delight Denim and Time Travel Teal on watercolour paper, die cut with Lil Inkers Stitched Circles. Added Taylored Expressions' dragonfly silhouette, and finished with sentiments from Winnie+Walter and Avery Elle.

Love to see you play along with some super inspiration from our FUSION Design Team...

FUSION Family...

Missed out on posting this in time as I was heading to hospital for a knee arthroscopy. All good for now, but looking like I will need some additional hardware in the future!

Love the theme this fortnight @ FUSION, stamped this gorgeous Dina Wakely bird and paper pieced with this gorgeous American Crafts pattered paper. Created the envelope flap using Lil Inkers stitched square die on a 45 degree angle. Added this super cute Reverse confetti sentiment.

FUSION Triangles (and a Trio of Trees)

Had some sparkly fun with this fortnights FUSION!

Tipped the FUSION sketch on it's side, and took inspiration from the golden triangles on the rug to create a super simple Christmas card. Die cut some cute Christmas trees using glitter foam sheets and dies from Paper Smooches and Reverse Confetti. Paired this with a stitched snowbank from Paper Smooches, and super cute Paper Smooches sentiment. Love this American Crafts sparkly background paper too.

Kombi FUSION

First up I have to say it's great to be back lol! I have had a bit of a break from card making and while I did spend a day away making cards recently, I have only just got to uploading.

Secndly I have to say, this would have to be one of my favourite FUSION cards ever.
Love the idea of a true flower power kombi, especially as my grandparents were avid Kombi Van Campers, and went on many adventures with the local Kombi Kamping Klub!
Flipped to fabulous FUSION sketch on its side and paper pieced this cool flower power print onto Stampendous King of the Road Kombi camper stamp. Went old school with layered coloured mats to highlight the retro colour palette.

I'd love to take off on a road trip in one of these, but in the mean time, the next best thing is to join in the fun with this fortnights FUSION Kombi Flower Power challenge.
