Together Again

May 11, 2022 Leave a Comment

My regular readers will know that I hate to waste craft supplies. The scraps I end up with the most tend to be Basic White Card. After all Basic White is, well, basic for so many of my projects (that and Very Vanilla). The other day I had an idea for a project using the Through It Together Stamp Set and grabbed a strip of Basic White Card from my scrap pocket. In the end I decided the strip was too narrow and set it aside, today it was reclaimed. TOGETHER SENTIMENT When I started this ... VIEW POST

Happiness Abounds In Blue & Yellow

May 10, 2022 Leave a Comment

Apart from blue and white, one of my other favourite colour combinations is blue and yellow. That’s why I was immediately drawn to this pattern in the Hues of Happiness 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper (DSP). There’s something really cheerful about this design, and I love the contrast between the bright flowers and the navy background. Just a simple panel of these flowers with a touch of gold ribbon and a few shiny embellishments was all I needed. Add in a simple punched sentiment and my planning ... VIEW POST

Simple Shades Of Gray

May 9, 2022 Leave a Comment

I love experimenting with colour. I often get inspiration from things I see around me, especially clothing and furnishings. Sometimes I’ll be out shopping and suddenly something catches my eye. If you’re close you’ll be able to see me grab my notebook and write down the ‘Stampin’ Up! colours' I see. I might even take a photo as a back-up. Other times I’ve no idea where my colour choices originate. Take today for instance, when I decided to use just Basic Gray and Gray Granite on this poppy gift ... VIEW POST

Mice Thanks On Mother’s Day

May 8, 2022 Leave a Comment

It must be my age but time is flying faster than ever. How else can I explain why I completely missed that today is Mother’s Day in Canada? In the UK, Mother’s Day (or Mothering Sunday) is celebrated on the fourth Sunday in Lent, which is most often in March. Of course my daughter in the UK goes by that calendar and we celebrated it then. So instead of Mother’s Day, this week’s simple Sunday project is a cute thank you card created using the Mischievous Mice (Host) Stamp Set. MISCHIEVOUS ... VIEW POST

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
