Last month I created a bookmark featuring one of the cats from the Pampered Pets Stamp Set. This stamp set isn't only cat images and I promised to design something for the dog lovers among you. So today for my simple Sunday project I did just that. DOG AND BOWL I began by cutting a 2" x ... VIEW POST
Sending More Christmas Blessings
Of all the Christmas stamp sets available from Stampin' Up! right now my favourite has to be Wrapped in Christmas. I immediately fell in love with the Christmas Blessings sentiment and make no apologies for using it again on today's card. CHRISTMAS PLAID I thought that today I'd make a ... VIEW POST
Sharing Some Little Treat Box Tips
While I can and do make my own boxes and bags, sometimes it's nice to have the work done for me. So I was easily drawn to the Little Treat Box Dies in the Stampin' Up! August To December 2020 Mini Catalogue. The set consists of one main die that cuts and scores the actual treat box plus nine more ... VIEW POST
Gift or card, or perhaps it’s both
Sometimes the simplest of ideas can turn into the prettiest projects. While playing with the Flowers For Every Season 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper (DSP) I decided to make a Christmas Card. Of course I couldn't help but pull out the gorgeous poinsettia design for this. However, instead of ... VIEW POST
No Pumpkin Stamps No Problem
Life has been pretty hectic lately but with so many 'holidays' crammed into the last few months of the year that's not unexpected. I does remind me though that sometimes while you might want something hand-crafted, it has to be quick and easy. When I realised I don't have any pumpkin stamps that ... VIEW POST
Z-Fold cards really aren’t that difficult
Just recently it occurred to me that while I design three or four cards every week all year long, I rarely show you 'fancy folds'. My card bases tend to be the basic piece of card folded in the middle and I've resolved to try and be a little more imaginative. So today I've added an extra scored ... VIEW POST
Today’s Plan May Involve Chocolate
Well this morning has been eventful with my computer crashing for the second time in a week. It seems like I can't put off replacing it any longer. Apart from the cost, I'm not looking forward to having to transfer my programs and files. So in preparation perhaps I should begin storing some of my ... VIEW POST
Snowman On A Light Background
One of the challenges with including a snowman on a project is how to make him stand out against a light background. One of my goto methods is to use a Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush. Although it's 'clear' there is a slight greyish tinge that adds just enough colour. To show you what I mean ... VIEW POST
Simple Watercoloured Camellia
When I have line-art stamp images with lots of open space I love to try different ways to add colour. Recently I've been a bit obsessed with Stampin' Blends alcohol markers so I decided to do something different for today's project. I know that not everyone is comfortable colouring, but I find it ...

Autumnal colours for autumnal weather
For today's project the distinctly autumnal feel of this morning's weather inspired my colour choices. But rather than go with a tried and trusted combination I decided to try something new. So after choosing Bumblebee, Cinnamon Cider, Rococo Rose and Old Olive, I set to work. AUTUMNAL ... VIEW POST
