Box Clever When In A Hurry

January 29, 2022 Leave a Comment

So this is going to be a super quick blog post. We have a severe winter storm that's just started to ramp up and I'm not sure how long the internet and power will stay on. With that in mind I decided that decorating a gift box would be a speedy option. The sentiment is quite generic, but makes this a box that can be used for any occasion. Making up the box is really simple as it comes ready assembled as a base with separate lid. All I had to do was fold in the side flaps on each piece, ... VIEW POST

A Simple Card With A Good Man

December 20, 2021 Leave a Comment

Continuing my rediscovery of stamp sets and other products I've not used in a while has been fun. Often what happens is I've exhausted my pool of ideas for a product and it gets put away. Then as time goes on I even forget it's there. Returning to them with the benefit of products I've got more recently I've found that my inspiration reignites. That's what happened when I picked up the A Good Man Stamp Set. It inspired me to make this simple masculine / gender neutral card even though I ... VIEW POST

Having A More Peaceful Crafting Day

October 20, 2020 Leave a Comment

After yesterday's rather stressful morning, today has been a lot more peaceful. I sat down to create a project and immediately found a sentiment that sparked an idea. Then it all came together exactly as I'd hoped. PEACEFUL SCENE "These are the moments we'll look back on with joy" comes from the Peaceful Moments Stamp Set. As soon as I saw it I knew it would be perfect for the front of a photo album. I have a stock of these mini pocket albums that take 4" x 6" photos and love ... VIEW POST

Silhouette card (alternate project) created using the July 2020 Paper Pumpkin kit - Summer Nights, and the A Good Man Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

A Paper Pumpkin Thing – Summer Nights

July 30, 2020 Leave a Comment

It's time for another A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop, albeit a bit later than usual. The July 2020 kit was called Summer Nights and was full of wonderful backgrounds. I loved the projects in the kit but had lots of other ideas for alternate projects. Here's just two of them. SIMPLE SUMMER NIGHTS CARD First up I created this simple summer scene using one of the postcard bases in the Summer Nights kit. I began by stamping the adult and child image from the A Good Man Stamp Set onto the ... VIEW POST

Come Sail Away With Seaside Stripes

May 8, 2020 Leave a Comment

Today's project was already half made when I sat down this morning. You see, when I'm creating I often end up with pieces left over. If it's a stamped image I always keep it with the stamp set for another day. So this morning when I opened up the A Great Man box, out fell a stamped and coloured image. So with a little striped paper from the Come Sail Away pack I had a masculine gift tag in record time. RELAX AND COLOUR The image I found had been stamped onto Whisper White Card using ... VIEW POST

A Day To Relax

June 16, 2019 Leave a Comment

Happy Father's Day everyone. I may not be a father but I'm definitely going to try to relax today. Yesterday I was at an event selling my cards and other products, and talking to lots of people about Stampin' Up! I came home satisfied with how everything went, but very tired. It's a good job I already had today's Simple Sunday project ready for you. RELAX YOUR WAY I simply adore the A Good Man Stamp Set and this image of a man in a deckchair was perfect for my project. I began by ... VIEW POST
