Does anyone else get hung up on one or two patterns in a paper pack that affects your whole view of the pack? In the current Sale-A-Bration Brochure I saw the wood slice pattern in the Rings of Love Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack and it left me cold. So I immediately decided that I wouldn’t choose that paper, even if it was free! However after seeing samples made using other designs in the pack I changed my mind. For instance, how could I miss out on these sweet birds? LOVE IS FUSSY ... VIEW POST
Penguin Place Is Back
It’s been a case of déjà vu this morning as I begin to write this blog post. I thought it was time to pull out the Penguin Place Stamp Set and coordinating Penguin Builder Punch to create a sweet Christmas Card. Everything came together as planned and I’m really happy with the results. So why am I left with the nagging feeling that I’ve made this card before? I’ve checked back at my photos from last year and found several projects, but none look remotely like this. Let’s hope so. FLUFFY ... VIEW POST
Another Hope & Prayer
Although I managed to get yesterday’s blog post published it wasn’t without some difficulty. I’d hoped this was a temporary glitch but as the day wore on there was no improvement. So I made a call to my internet provider who did a few tests and adjustments, all to no avail. Finally they decided to replace the modem, again, and hope that sorts out the problem. Thankfully that should arrive tomorrow and normal service can be resumed. Meanwhile I think I should retreat to my studio and play a ... VIEW POST
Best Remedy For Today
Oops, sorry I’m late but I got rather distracted and instead of creating one card for today’s post I made three! I started out with no idea what I was going to make and reached for the nearest thing on my desk. This just happened to be the newest all-inclusive stamping kit from Stampin’ Up! called “Best Remedy”. Although there’s full instructions and all the prepared pieces to make 9 cards with envelopes (3 each of 3 different designs), I decided to improvise, and once I got going I couldn’t ... VIEW POST
Songbirds Need Notes
I’m so fortunate to live in beautiful rural Nova Scotia. With a house that looks over Cobequid Bay and acres of grassland and trees it’s such a peaceful spot. I’ve always been attracted to nature and love to see the wildlife that comes to visit. Some like the deer are quiet and we only know they’re there if we happen to look out at the perfect moment. Others like the birds are more obvious, and they inspired me to design this cute robin note-card using the Sweet Songbirds Stamp ... VIEW POST
Songbirds Maiden Flight
It’s the weekend, the sun is shining and it’s due to warm up too. This morning there were 9 white-tailed deer vising the all-you-can-eat buffet that is my front lawn. Also more obvious now are the various birds that visit when our black cat Houdini is not in a playful mood. We even saw our first blue jay this year. These brightly coloured birds always make me smile when I see them, so blue was the colour I reached for when designing today’s project using the Sweet Songbirds Stamp Set. SWEET ... VIEW POST
