Create this fun birthday card using the Construction Zone Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! #simplestamping #papercraftwithme

In The Zone

June 4, 2023 Leave a Comment

The rain continues to fall and some (but not all) of the wildfires in Nova Scotia are out, or at least under control. The pictures that are being released are heartbreaking with so many homes and businesses damaged or destroyed. Still, people will likely rebuild but it will take quite some time. So while the weather prevents us from doing much in the garden I decided to stay in and craft (obviously). For this week’s simple Sunday project I created a fun birthday card using the Construction Zone ... VIEW POST

Children’s Zoo Time

April 26, 2023 Leave a Comment

After yesterday’s colourful thank you card I decided to make something more childlike for my second sneak peek project. You all know I’m a sucker for cute critters and the Zoo Crew 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper (DSP) could have been made for me. Like most of the DSP from Stampin’ Up! this heavy-weight paper is printed on both sides. On one side of each sheet are black and white patterns. But the other sides feature a whole menagerie of line-art creatures engaged in a variety of activities like ... VIEW POST

Brightest Glow

August 12, 2022 Leave a Comment

Ok I admit it. When I first saw the Brightest Glow Stamp Set I decided I didn’t need it. But every time I flicked through the Stampin’ Up! July to December Mini Catalogue I found myself pausing on page 30 and 31. I immediately bought and love the Lights Aglow paper, the ribbon and the festive pearls. But I finally gave in and got the Brightest Glow Stamp Set and coordinating Labels Aglow Dies. It’s designed as a “Christmas” stamp set but that wasn’t the theme of my first project. BRIGHTEST ...

Celebrate Later

June 14, 2022 Leave a Comment

It’s Tuesday. It’s still raining. I have a huge list of things to accomplish today. But am I sad,? Oh no. That’s because, after getting held up in Quebec for a few days my recent orders are due to be delivered. There’s some staples (card and adhesives) but also some new products from the Annual Catalogue for me and some local customers. Plus I’ll also receive products pre-ordered from the July To December Mini Catalogue. It’s definitely a day to celebrate. But first, a birthday card for you to ... VIEW POST

A Different Kind Of Easter Chick

April 4, 2021 Leave a Comment

Happy Easter everyone. It's a beautiful spring day here where I'm staying in the south of England, and hopefully where you are too. For today's simple Sunday project I went looking for the Easter Bunny but came up short. Instead, please enjoy this "Best of Cluck" card featuring the Hey Birthday Chick Stamp Set. GOOD LUCK CHICK The Hey Birthday Chick Stamp Set has four sentiments, four chick images plus an image of seeds and worms. Each sentiment can work with several of the images ... VIEW POST

Special Someone For Some Heal-ium

March 15, 2021 2 Comments

Today's project is another from my 2020 World Cardmaking Day personal challenge that I haven't yet shown you. This get well card has a very simple layout with a punny sentiment from the Special Someone Stamp Set. To add interest I used the coordinating Special Day Dies and also the Balloon Bouquet Punch. SUBTLE LAYERS This project was really all about the two-part sentiment, so I decided to keep the rest of card quite subtle. I began by using my Paper Trimmer to cut and score a ... VIEW POST
