Four days after returning from an extended vacation in Europe I'm still trying to get myself back into a routine, and that includes working on projects for the What Will You Stamp? Challenge Design Team. This week the challenge is WWYS173 Make A Difference. The Make A Difference Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! is another great alphabet set but I ignored all the individual letters and instead used other elements in the set to create a pretty gift tag. With the aid of my Stamparatus stamp ... VIEW POST
Going far
The other day my hubby called me to the window as there was a large bird in our garden that he didn't recognise. Well very much true to form, the minute I got to the window the said bird flew off, but I did manage to get a bit of a look and suspect it was a heron. We see all kinds of wildlife around our little patch of Nova Scotia and the views from our home often inspire me to create projects like this simple picture. I started with a piece of card in my new favourite background ... VIEW POST
Talking animals
I'm a bit of a details person and I often notice things that others overlook. Like the expressions on the faces of the characters in the new Stampin' Up! Stamp Set called Animal Outing.

Easy flower arranging
I've never really been a 'flower' type of person. My family will tell you that I'm not a fan of cut flowers (they're already dying when you get them), although rooted plants for the garden or home are nice.

I often find myself wondering then why I seem to be drawn to flowers in my papercrafting. I keep telling myself I don't need more flower images ... VIEW POST
Rhino what you might like
Another bad pun but the new Animal Outing Stamp Set from the Stampin' Up! 2018/2019 Annual Catalogue just makes me laugh. Today's simple Sunday project is a quick and easy 3-1/4" x 4-1/4" notecard without a sentiment that could be useful for just about any short message you need to send. I took one of the new Whisper White Memories & More Cards & Envelopes in the small size, folded it along the pre-scored line and sharpened the crease with a Bone Folder. Using Crumb Cake ink ...
