When it comes to pretty patterned paper my education has taken another leap forward. Yesterday I did something that would have been unthinkable even a few short weeks ago… I cut up a sheet of the Dainty Flowers 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper (DSP) that you can get for free during Sale-A-Bration. Nothing odd there you might think. But it wasn’t just any sheet, it was the sheet with the oval floral frames, and I cut right through the middle of one of them. But I had my reasons. CUT THROUGH ...

Ready To Craft
So our journey through the Canadian weather options continues today. Yesterday we had several inches of snow. During the evening and overnight that turned to rain which has completely washed away all the snow. That’s nice, as it means that our decision not to go out and shovel it paid off. Today however they’re forecasting freezing rain which is a whole other ballgame. It looks like Mother Nature wants me to stay in and craft some more and I’m definitely ready to oblige, starting with this easy ... VIEW POST
Celebrating With Chic
While Christmas Day is now over there’s still quite a bit of celebrating to do in the next week or so. Boxing Day is often an extension of the Christmas festivities. Then I have my daughter’s birthday, as well as New Year to look forward to. So with that in mind I wanted to bring you another ‘idea’ project that you might find useful.

Florets And Leaves
While everyone is most likely in full Christmas mode I’m reminded that other occasions are still happening. I can hardly forget as my daughter’s birthday is around Christmas and we always keep the two events separate. Therefore when I was working on my personal 24 cards in 24 hours challenge I knew at least one would have to be a birthday card. So for today’s simple Sunday project I wanted to show you card number 8. This one uses the Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper (DSP) which retires very ... VIEW POST
Celebrating Fitting Florets Paper
And just like that it’s time for another simple Sunday project. With only two more days to wait for the early release of the Fitting Florets Collection I have one last sneak peek for you. This card doesn’t actually use the Framed Florets Stamp Set or coordinating dies. Instead I wanted to bring you a pretty birthday card celebrating the Fitting Florets 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper. Like the rest of the collection it will be available starting November 1st, however this paper is only available ... VIEW POST
Storybook Vibes
After a few warm and sunny days, this morning has dawned very differently. Today we awoke to thick fog with a definite chill in the air. Still, it wasn’t all bad because as the light improved we noticed four adult deer enjoying their breakfast that is our lawn. One of the things I love most about living in rural Nova Scotia is seeing the animals that visit our property. So you won’t be surprised they inspired today’s project featuring a deer from the Storybook Gnomes Designer Series Paper (DSP) ... VIEW POST
