The lurgy that’s going around has finally got me and I’m currently dosed up with medication. So for today’s project I needed to find something that I could put together really quickly. If you’re a regular follower of my blog you’ll remember a box decorated using the new Petal Park Stamp Set and coordinating Petal Park Builder Punch. After finishing that project I had a few pieces left over. Today I decided that with a pretty box to gift, I could use those pieces to create a birthday gift ... VIEW POST
Decorative Simplicity
With pretty sentiments like those in the Go To Greetings Stamp Set designing a card project can be challenging. If I want the sentiment to stand out I tend to go for much simpler backgrounds and layouts. That might involve a subtle paper pattern. Or I’ve used a plain card background layer with an embossed texture for added interest. Today though I decided to pull out my new Decorative Borders Stamp Set. With a tried and tested navy and white colour scheme this elegant birthday card came together ... VIEW POST
Petal Park For The New Year
So how’s your day going so far? Mine has been slow but frustrating. You see I had a project planned for you, but when I went to get the key component I just couldn’t find it.

So using the new Friendly Gnomes Stamp Set and the carried over Gnomes Dies I ... VIEW POST
Happiness Is Being Storm Ready
It’s Christmas Eve Eve and happiness is knowing we’re ready for a coming storm. The extreme winter weather that’s currently gripping most of Canada and the US is expected to arrive here later today. Fortunately we’re being spared the extreme cold, but it’s the wind and rain that has us worried. It’s possible that trees already weakened by Hurricane Fiona in October could bring down power lines. Having been left without power for 10 days then, we’re not taking any chances this time around. ... VIEW POST
Timeless Greetings
One of the things I hear regularly from crafters is how hard they find making masculine or gender-neutral cards. It seems creating a card with flowers, ribbons and gems comes much more naturally to many. My issue is not designing the cards it’s more about getting materials that aren’t boring, and I’m always on the lookout for extra options. So you can imagine my delight when I saw the new Timeless Greetings Kit from Stampin’ Up! I knew right away that it would be the perfect addition to my ... VIEW POST
