If A Frog Could Talk

April 2, 2019 Leave a Comment

Sometimes I get the biggest kick from the smallest details. There's something about the Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper (DSP) that really appeals to me. The designers at Stampin' Up! created the most amazing combination of images and colours for this pack, and I love it. Probably my favourite of all is the sheet with the tree frogs. The half-closed eyes and the very raised eyebrows have so much expression. If a frog could talk I wonder what this one would say? PERFECT FROG ... VIEW POST

Layered gift tag with horse and boots images from the Let It Ride and Country Livin' Stamp Sets from Stampin' Up!

Country Images

March 20, 2019 2 Comments

Sometimes I pick up a stamp set with a particular idea in mind and then something else occurs to me. Like yesterday with Let It Ride. That's the stamp set with the lovely horse images and sentiments. I decided that I simply had to combine it with Country Livin' and ended up with this gift tag. RUSTIC TAG BASE I began by making my tag base. Taking a 2" x 3-1/2" piece of Thick Very Vanilla Card I covered one side with some of the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper using Multipurpose ... VIEW POST

Bad Puns and #WWYS210

March 11, 2019 4 Comments

Do you ever find yourself dragging out a childhood memory and thinking about those really bad puns and jokes? Well I have to say that's exactly what I found myself doing with the Sale-A-Bration stamp set So Hoppy Together. So when I realised that the What Will You Stamp? challenge #WWYS210 used this set, I couldn't resist any longer. So here's what happened, I saw the frog with the glasses and thought that he looked very studious. Then that made me think of reading, and of course ... VIEW POST

Take Life By The Reins

March 2, 2019 4 Comments

Today's project was a happy accident. I wanted to get that out in the open from the start. I've been having a bit of a sort out and found some scraps of card that had got creased somehow. I used to throw those pieces away, but not any longer. I have a simple 30 second solution for saving those pieces. So I decided to take life by the reins and create a 30 second solution video for you. Ok, so I took a little bit of poetic licence and exaggerated the creases in the Call Me Clover ... VIEW POST

Bookmark with a grey tabby cat and You're the cat's meow sentiment, created using the Nine Lives Stamp Set and coordinating Cat Punch from Stampin' Up!

Nine Lives with Four Colour Options

February 17, 2019 4 Comments

Given the choice, I'd rather spend my time with a cat than a dog. There, I said it. I actually like that cats are rather aloof and self-sufficient. I'm also not prepared to go out in all weathers to exercise and clean up after a dog. A litter tray? that's fine with me. So it should come as no surprise that I was drawn to the Nine Lives Stamp Set in the Stampin' Up! 2019 Occasions Catalogue. I love the combination of small images and sentiments, and of course the three main cat images. ... VIEW POST

A Cloud of Butterflies

February 15, 2019 Leave a Comment

Here in Nova Scotia it's bright and sunny, but at minus 12C it's very cold. So once again I'm in my craft studio dreaming of spring and playing with butterflies. This Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack is available free during Sale-A-Bration. Now there are even more exclusive free items to choose from. But first, my project. I began my card by using my Stampin' Trimmer to cut and score a piece of Thick Whisper White Card. I folded it along the scored line and sharpened ... VIEW POST
