Happy Canadian Mother’s Day. Thirty seven years ago today I became a mother for the first time with the birth of my son. Then a few years later I was blessed with a daughter. Sadly my son passed away at the age of 31 following complications stemming from Type 1 diabetes he developed in his early twenties. One of the things about losing someone you love is realising that there’ll never be any new photos. For that reason I cherish every one I do have, and think a physical album is a wonderful ...

Last Of The Mischievous Mice
We're now one week into the Last Chance promotion for the January to June 2022 Mini Catalogue. As I suspected, the New Horizons 6” x 6” Designer Series Paper (DSP) sold out very quickly. So now that and a number of other sold out products are gone for good. Over the next week or two my plan is to bring you projects using some of the other retiring products while they remain available. Today’s I've created a sweet mini pocket photo album featuring the last of the Mischievous Mice ... VIEW POST
Another Special Moments Idea
We all have a friend who’s completely daft. Sometimes more than one. They’re the one who keeps you laughing with their ideas and antics.

I found the perfect sentiment in the free Sale-A-Bration stamp set called Special Moments and, with the addition of an image from Senior Years, this is what ... VIEW POST
Never Forget With Nature’s Harvest
Although I'm not an avid scrapbooker I do love to look at photos of family and friends. It's amazing how something so simple can trigger memories and feelings from events many years past. I'm old-fashioned in that I like my photos printed so I don't have to worry whether the battery in my device is sufficiently charged. So every now and then I like to put together a little pocket photo album. The covers that come with the albums are often uninspiring, which means before filling them with ... VIEW POST
Peaceful Start To My Sneak Peeks
One week from today the new Mini Catalogue will go live, along with the second Sale-A-Bration promotion of 2021. So it's about time I gave you some sneak peeks of what you'll be able to buy starting August 3rd. I thought I'd start simply with some gorgeous paper from the Peaceful Place Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. SNOWY CABIN SCENE There's so many great designs in the Peaceful Place Specialty DSP pack it was hard to know where to start. In the end I chose the sheet with ... VIEW POST
Bamboo Beauty Makes Its Debut
After yesterday's difficult morning things definitely improved. Right now I'm trying to do a major declutter and reorganisation of my craft studio. It's well overdue but a good use of my time while in quarantine. I did stop just long enough though to make this simple project for a friend using the new Bamboo Beauty Stamp Set. SIMPLE BAMBOO The Bamboo Beauty Stamp Set has two tall bamboo stems and two leaf images, plus some lovely sentiments. I began with the thicker stem and first ... VIEW POST
