Front Cut Out Birthday Card - Step By Step Tutorial

Hey everyone! I can't believe it's Sunday already. I feel like this week has gone unbelievably quick.

I wanted to share with you a quick tutorial on this card I created. I wasn't sure what to call it but I think it makes for an interesting card. It's also great for beginners or if you're in a rush.


Normally when I make cards I have to stamp some form of sentiment on the front of the card and also on the inside. I love how with this card you just have the one stamp which covers you for the inside and outside yet the card still looks decorative.

It's so easy and simple to make and you can add whatever design you would like! If you want to find out how to make it then just keep reading.

Cookie Cupcakes - #BakingWithSukilu

Hey everyone!

I wanted to do a quick and simple baking post for you today showing how you can make your very own cookie cupcakes!

I thought these would be a fun twist on your normal cookies and it means you can add your own topping and get real creative.


I added a caramel flavoured frosting on mine (you can find the recipe here, just add caramel sauce instead of vanilla extract to taste)

These are a fun desert to experiment with and are so quick and easy to make if you are in a rush!

Ombre Flower Card - Embossing Technique & Handmade Glitter Card

Hey everyone and welcome to another technique tutorial!

I saw a picture of a card in a magazine and was so inspired to re-create it. The way I made it I used a technique to get an ombre flower which would look beautiful on any card. You could also use this technique on a lot of different shapes.


It's so easy to achieve and you can easily control the insensity of it. I will also be showing you how you can create your own 'glitter cardstock' in this tutorial which I have been using a lot recently. I don't have a huge range of colours when it comes to glitter card but after finding a way to create my own I basically have every colour I can possibly think of!

Caramel Filled Chocolates - #BakingWithSukilu

Hey everyone and welcome to another baking post!

I absolutely love doing these kinds of post. I have always stuck to desert based foods but I am hoping to share with you some of my favourite breakfast, lunch and dinner recipes! I actually tend to eat healthy and some of the meals we have discovered I think you would all love!

In todays tutorial I wanted to share with you how you can create you own caramel filled chocolates. Now I will say that the way mine turned out I feel they actually taste like a butter fugde and I love it! Many of these have disappeared already today.

I ended up making two batches of these as I wanted to see what is easier and create a more appealing finish. Stay tuned to end of this post and I will share what changes I made with my second batch.


Don't they just look absolutely delicious!
