For some time I've known my laptop needed replacing. Having bought a new machine I decided it would make sense to transfer the programs and files over the course of a few weeks. That way it would be easier to find any problems and correct them. Well that was the plan, until today when nothing went right with the old laptop. So when I finally took a break I grabbed the Back On Your Feet Stamp Set and made a fridge magnet that says it all, complete with messy background and frayed (nerve) ... VIEW POST
Back On Your Feet Meets Many Messages
I'm having altogether too much fun combining elements from different stamp sets right now. Just when I think I've exhausted my imagination something else comes along to excite me. This time it was the unlikely pairing of the Back On Your Feet Stamp Set and the multi-sentiment Many Messages Stamp. I always think of Back On Your Feet as a stamp set for get well projects but it doesn't have to be that limited. It was my determination to show how you can use the Many Messages Stamp Set without ... VIEW POST
Lighthearted Lines Inspired Me Once Again
My regular readers will know that I love finding new and interesting sentiments to use on my projects. Sometimes they're part of a stamp set with both images and sentiments. Other times they're part of a sentiment only set like the new Lighthearted Lines. This set of eight stamps has somewhat larger sentiments, although they're certainly not huge. Some of them could also be 'edited' with the first part stamped on the front of a card and the second part on the inside. Today though I kept ... VIEW POST
Beauty Of The Earth For Tree Lovers
After yesterday's sneak peek of the Tailor Made Tags Dies, I have some new Designer Series Paper to show you. The Beauty Of The Earth 12" x 12" DSP features a twelve tree and leaf designs and is stunning. It's not hard to imagine these colours and styles being useful for every season. Today I chose one of the more abstract patterns as a background for my card project. BACK ON YOUR FEET Before getting to the Beauty Of The Earth DSP I first needed to create the focal point of the card. ... VIEW POST
Just Put Your Feet Up And Relax
Today is going to be one of those relaxing days with nothing important on my to do list. It is Sunday after all. We have quick and easy meals planned, and the only 'chore' is a load of washing. As I have machines that do most of the work, I can hardly call that difficult. In fact, so long as I fold it straight from the dryer I'll not even have to iron it. So my plan is essentially to put my feet up, read a book and maybe do a little colouring. What about you? REST & RELAX When ... VIEW POST
I’m Planning To Put My Feet Up, Eventually
Just when I thought I had a handle on the 2021/2021 Annual Catalogue another box of new goodies arrived! Most of these are from the new Stampin' Up! August to December Mini Catalogue which goes live on August 4th. While it's still 23 weeks to Christmas I know that time will fly by, but the new Mini Catalogue isn't just about Christmas. There's autumn, and Thanksgiving and Halloween all coming before then and that will keep me busy. Of course I don't keep the new products separate from the ... VIEW POST
