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. Who pull silly faces and say silly things, and without whom life would be very boring indeed. So when I was asked to create a cover for a pocket photo album this was my brief. 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.

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
Looking Forward To Father’s Day
Now that Mother's Day has passed it's time to think about Father's Day. Sadly it seems that too will be celebrated at a distance this year. So today's mini photo album project, while quick and easy, could help bridge the gap. A CUT ABOVE This Father's Day project actually started without an end project in mind. It was one of those afternoons where I just wanted to spend some quiet time colouring. Instead of flowers I decided to pull out the A Cut Above Stamp Set. From the fun ... VIEW POST
Celebrate A Special Life With A Photo Album
As I continue to enjoy precious time with my new granddaughters it seemed appropriate to bring you a new photo album project. While being able to see photos electronically is nice, there's something special about actually having them printed. Maybe it's because you don't have to be sitting at a device to see them. For me though it's that printed photos reflect life events that are important to those involved. TREASURES OF LIFE I began today's project with a 4" x 5-1/2" piece of Very ... VIEW POST
