Summer Days Are Numbered

February 27, 2021 Leave a Comment

In a little over three weeks we'll know for sure what Stampin' Up! products are retiring. For some things though there's no doubt. I've already mentioned all the 2019-2021 In Color products will go as they make way for new 2021-2023 In Colors. Also guaranteed to retire are Host stamp sets in the 2020/2021 Annual Catalogue. Host stamp sets never carry over, so your time to earn Stampin' Rewards to get them is running out. Today's unusual bookmark project features one of these exclusive stamp ... VIEW POST

Forever Fern And A Bundle Reminder

February 26, 2021 Leave a Comment

Yesterday Stampin' Up! let Demonstrators know that sales of the Strawberry Builder Punch (and coordinating Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set) are exceeding expectations. As a result the punch is currently not orderable, and the next batch due shortly is not expected to last long. While it's certainly disappointing, there is some good news. Stampin' Up! also told us that the stamp set and punch will be in the new 2021/2022 Annual Catalogue. And what's more it will still be available as a discounted ... VIEW POST

Winter Snow Won’t Last For Long

December 10, 2020 Leave a Comment

Two weeks today will be Christmas Eve and a week later the last day of 2020. So I suppose I shouldn't be too upset that winter appears to have arrived. As I sat down to make today's project the snow was gently falling outside. Not a lot, but enough to leave a dusting on the ground. I think it's due to warm up a little so it's unlikely to stay for long. Later in the week? well that might be a whole different ballgame. With the snow outside I decided today's project should be a Christmas ... VIEW POST

Seeing A Lot More Sunshine

September 28, 2020 Leave a Comment

After a lot of planning and preparation I am finally getting more natural light in my studio. I've spent the best part of the morning helping hubby remove the old french doors. Then by the end of today they will be have been replaced by doors with a much greater proportion of glass. The doors have actually needed replacing for a long time and the change will make my studio much more comfortable to work in too. Of course having an uninterrupted view of our garden and being able to make the ... VIEW POST

Simply A Textured Country Scene

September 10, 2020 Leave a Comment

Despite the Christmas and winter projects I've been making recently I'm still not quite ready to give up on summer. We can see the leaves changing colour and there's a chill in the morning air, but hopefully there's little more of the season left to enjoy. So instead of my planned autumn project today I ended up with a greener country scene pocket photo album. COUNTRY SCENE I began with the pocket photo album I'd purchased recently at the Dollar Store. It's designed to be used with 4" ... VIEW POST

Home to work and back again

September 2, 2020 Leave a Comment

Every year I make myself a notebook to record my car expenses. I know you can buy pre-printed books for this purpose but they're so cramped I gave up on them several years ago. Since then Stampin' Up! has always obliged me by releasing just the right images and/or sentiments. This year it was the Coming Home Stamp Set that provided the inspiration for my 2021 vehicle notebook. COMING HOME Having decided to use images from the Coming Home Stamp Set I started with those. Using Tuxedo ... VIEW POST
