Autumn is definitely getting a foothold here in Nova Scotia. As I drove into town yesterday I noticed quite a few trees have started to replace green with bright reds and yellows. While we don't have any fields of sunflowers, somehow when I think of autumn I always think of them. So today I decided that I'd pull out the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set and coordinating Sunflowers Dies for this pretty gift tag. CELEBRATE SUNFLOWERS WITH MARKERS Instead of ink pads I thought it would be ... VIEW POST
It’s Time To Shell-ebrate With Turtle Friends
My regular readers will know that I like a good pun and cute animal images. So you can imagine how I felt about the "It's time to shell-ebrate" sentiment in the Turtle Friends Stamp Set. This isn't the first project I've made with this set, but it's quick and easy and perfect for some simple Sunday creativity. TAG TALK I often start my simple tags with a 3" x 6" piece of card, scored at 3" and then folded along the scored line. Today I made the tag base using Soft Succulent Card. ... VIEW POST
Snailed It Stamp Set For A Fun Card
I fell in love with the Snailed It Stamp Set the minute I saw it in the Stampin' Up! January to June Mini Catalogue. There's something very expressive in the eyes, right down to the eyelashes on one image! The images can be left as they are or coloured in, which makes them extra versatile.

Plus there's the Snail Mail 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper (DSP) which ... VIEW POST

Take one Mini Paper Pumpkin Box
It's tough to create with a headache but I managed it. I just wanted to create something quickly, and a Mini Paper Pumpkin Box was the first thing at hand. With a little ink, stamping and die-cutting I was able to create a pretty favour box for my Thanksgiving table. MINI PAPER PUMPKIN BOX The Mini Paper Pumpkin Boxes come flat but are all cut and scored. They have a food safe coating on the inside while the outside is plain white and ready for decorating. Today I used a quick ink ... VIEW POST
Celebrate With A Sunflower And Lace
It occurred to me yesterday that it's been ages since I last made a gift card holder. In fact what reminded me was seeing how many of my gift card holders I have sold recently. So what better way to celebrate than to make more... PAINTED SUNFLOWER I began my project with the pretty small sunflower image from the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set. Using VersaMark ink I stamped the image onto some Shimmery White Card. Next I sprinkled the sticky ink with Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder ... VIEW POST
