As I write this blog post I am still in shock. Something I never imagined has finally happened. Stampin' Up! is retiring the Lovely As A Tree Stamp Set. Lovely As A Tree was the set that drew me to Stampin' Up! and is a classic. The stand of bare trees is one I've used many times in the 5 years ... VIEW POST
Sampler Project Finally Finished
Last month I showed you part of something I was working on, but there was much more to do before I was ready to show you the finished project. Well today's the day. I've been putting together a sampler using a number of stamp sets and here's what I ended up with. SECTION BY SECTION If ... VIEW POST
A Yellow Rose For You
My regular blog readers will know that I have a love for yellow roses, they were my late Mum's favorite too. So I suppose it was inevitable that when I sat down to create a project with the Graceful Garden Stamp Set, a yellow rose would figure prominently. SIMPLE YELLOW ROSE I don't just ... VIEW POST
Bride & Groom Gift
I think I'm in love with the Well Written Dies. They're the ones with lots of different words that coordinate with the Well Said Stamp Set. One of the best things about these dies is that they come out of the dies really easily. What's more, unlike some other words dies I've seen, these ones are ... VIEW POST
Pine Tree Simplicity
As we're only days away from seeing the full Retiring List I've been sorting through some of the products that I know will definitely go. Designer Series Paper (DSP) is one of these. In amongst the Nature's Poem DSP I found some wood effect paper I'd completely forgotten about. So that lead me to ... VIEW POST

The brief was to use Bermuda Bay, Mango Melody and Granny Apple Green, all colours I love. I sat down to play with a ... VIEW POST
Piece of Cake for #WWYS214
When I'm creating projects for the What Will You Stamp? Challenge Design Team, I'm always looking to do something a little different. Today's birthday card for #WWYS214 Piece of Cake, is a definitely a bit of a departure for me, but I'm very happy with how it turned out. I started by cutting ... VIEW POST
Time For Teacher Appreciation
When I was teaching I was always touched when I received a gift from a parent. I mean let's be honest, it's the parent who went out, spent the money and wrapped it. But the gifts I cherished the most were the ones made by the children. At this time of year it's worth thinking about those teacher ... VIEW POST
Say It Isn’t Snow!
Oh yes, at 7.00 am this morning it started snowing. Thankfully it's supposed to change over to rain later, but even so... What's more, we have potentially six inches of the white stuff coming our way later next week! Look, I'm bored with this now. All I want is to be able to look out the window ... VIEW POST
Signs of Spring
We survived the storm, and while it's still windy, it's not half as bad as it was yesterday. As I predicted, we did lose power, but thankfully after I'd finished my blog post, and only for about 2-1/2 hours. Today is bright and sunny and just outside the window I see lots of little finches looking ... VIEW POST
