Magnet Board Masculine Makeover

May 7, 2022 Leave a Comment

Today is going to be one of those days when I get very little done. I woke up with backache and it’s making it hard to concentrate on anything for more than a few minutes at a time. So I’ll take some painkillers and not put too much pressure on myself to get things done. Hopefully it will ease up as the day wears on, but in the meantime I wanted to show you something I’ve been working on... It’s a masculine makeover for the Celebrate Today Magnet Board Kit. If you saw my original post about ... VIEW POST

Happiness Is Not Always Blue

May 6, 2022 2 Comments

I have to admit that since I got my hands on the 2022-2024 In Colors I’ve been a bit obsessed with the new blue, Starry Sky. But who can blame me, it’s simply gorgeous. However I decided today it was time to do something completely different. So instead of bold blues I went with soft colours for a more romantic feel. The pretty florals of the Happiness Abounds Stamp Set was perfect for what I had in mind. In no time at all I had exactly what I had planned. HAPPINESS ABOUNDS I began this ... VIEW POST

Sea Dies Snippet

May 5, 2022 Leave a Comment

This project is one of those created as a result of a mistake. I'd actually planned to make a card using the frame from the Sea Dies set. However I wasn't paying attention when I placed the die on the Thick Basic White Card and it wasn't centred. As a result I had to scrap that piece and start over again. Of course when I say 'scrap' that doesn't mean it was destined for the garbage (well not all of it at least). You know that’s simply not my style. SEA DIES MISTAKE So for this 'bonus' ... VIEW POST

Another Adventure With Campology

May 4, 2022 2 Comments

So the new annual catalogue launch went smoothly yesterday with no major issues reported. It was a busy time for me, tinged with sadness as I put away the retired catalogue. It’s like saying goodbye to an old friend. On the plus side I’ve always found that new products bring added options for the ones carrying over. This became immediately obvious to me yesterday as I combined an old (but still available) favourite, Campology, with the new He’s All That Stamp Set, and two new die sets for good ... VIEW POST

Sneak Peek Recap And More!

May 3, 2022 2 Comments

At last it’s here! After lots of anticipation the Stampin’ Up! 2022/2023 Annual Catalogue is now live for customers. It’s been fun playing with the products I was able to get during the Demonstrator pre-order period. However starting today I now have the whole catalogue to choose from, and it’s hard to decide what to get first. I’ll probably order a couple of stamp sets, some stand-alone dies and maybe some more paper. But while I wrestle with that dilemma, here’s a quick recap of my recent ... VIEW POST

IDEAS Blog Hop: He’s The Man

May 2, 2022 18 Comments

It’s the first Monday of the month and that means it’s time for another IDEAS blog hop. This month our theme is “fast & fabulous cards”. I decided to create all my cards using the He’s The Man suite on pages 78 and 79 of the 2022/2023 Annual Catalogue that launches tomorrow. So I designed four cards for the IDEAS Tutorial Bundle PDF, and a fifth for today’s final sneak peek. The products in this suite really make it easy to create masculine / gender neutral projects like today's ... VIEW POST

Nature’s Prints Delft Style

May 1, 2022 Leave a Comment

And just like that April has gone and May dawned bright (but chilly). The Stampin’ Up! 2022/2023 Annual Catalogue goes live to customers on Tuesday and so this is my penultimate sneak peek project. As it’s also Sunday I have simple project for you that gave me quite the surprise. You see my plan had been to use some more of the Sun Prints DSP alongside the new Nature’s Prints Stamp Set, but my creative muse had other plans. Instead I ended up with this pretty Delft style gift tag. NATURE'S ... VIEW POST

Happiness Abounds All Morning

April 30, 2022 Leave a Comment

I must apologise for being late with my blog today. I’ve actually been up for hours and playing with some new products. The problem was that I was having so much fun with the Happiness Abounds suite that I forgot that I was supposed to be writing my blog post! Instead, having made this card, I just kept playing. On the plus side I now have a small pile of projects to bring you over the coming days and weeks. But for now here’s one of the “best wishes” cards. HAPPINESS IS ... VIEW POST

Simply Stunning Sun Prints

April 29, 2022 Leave a Comment

A couple of days ago I showed you a sneak peek of the new Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper (DSP). That DSP was full of brightly coloured flowers and completely different from today’s botanical project. When I first saw the Sun Prints 12” x 12” DSP I was immediately drawn to the striking white foliage on a dark blue background. While some sheets have an ‘all-over’ pattern, it was a full-sheet design that caught my eye and it deserved a special place as the cover of my new journal. SUN ... VIEW POST

A Paper Pumpkin Thing: Change Is Beautiful

April 28, 2022 Leave a Comment

Change is beautiful especially when winter finally changes to spring. So the April Paper Pumpkin kit was well named with it's caterpillar to butterfly, seedling to flower, and night to day cards. For this month's A Paper Pumpkin Thing blog hop I decided to change one card base into two unique projects. Oh and of course I couldn't resist throwing in a little new catalogue sneak peek too. First up I have this card which uses parts from the kit and a little extra card. I began with the ... VIEW POST
