Still The Melody Lingers On

April 14, 2022 Leave a Comment

Isn’t it funny how the memory works. Whether it’s particular foods, smells, sights or sounds, they can all be triggers. One of the most common for me is music. My regular followers will know that the Christmas colours of red, gold and green are always accompanied (in my head) by the song “Karma Chameleon” by Culture Club. Today the song that’s on repeat is “Congratulations” by Cliff Richard (yes I’m that old). So it made perfect sense to pull out the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder for this ... VIEW POST

Sending Thoughts With Prized Peony

December 22, 2021 Leave a Comment

Today is a sad day as it sees the funeral of my husband's elderly aunt who died recently in the UK. Unfortunately with increased COVID restrictions travelling over to pay our respects wasn't a viable option. So we shall have to watch via a video link while other members of the family represent us in person. We have lots of happy memories that will comfort us, but our thoughts today are with her husband of 47 years who has lost his soulmate. So for today's project I wanted to bring you this ...

More From One Happy Family

December 8, 2021 Leave a Comment

Once again I've been making non-Christmas projects using some products that are most definitely Christmas themed. It was only after I'd finished that I realised that both the One Happy Family Stamp Set and Christmas Trimmings Dies are from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalogue and will be around for a while yet. In fact only the the Timber 3D Embossing Folder is from the July to December 2021 Mini Catalogue, and it's not retiring. This is fortunate since it's the first time I've used the Timber 3D ...

Tidings Of Christmas Coordination

November 13, 2021 Leave a Comment

When you think of Christmas what comes to mind? My earliest memory is putting a stocking at the end of my bed. Back then though we didn't have fancy stockings, they were my Dad's old grey army socks but we didn't mind. Somehow the satsuma, coin, chocolate and small gift all fit so we had something to keep us occupied before breakfast. The stockings in the Tidings & Trimmings Stamp Set are a bit fancier, but still rekindle those old memories. TAILOR MADE TAG For this project I ... VIEW POST

Cheers With Tidings And Trimmings

October 22, 2021 Leave a Comment

Once again my planned project didn't quite turn out as I'd originally planned. This morning I sat down intending to make a Christmas-themed bottle tag. It was inspired by the "Cheers from our home to yours" sentiment from the Tidings & Trimmings Stamp Set. However despite pulling out card in traditional Christmas red and green, things took an entirely different direction. Sometimes that's just how it goes... BOTTLE TAG BASICS My bottle tag started very simply with a 2-3/4" x ... VIEW POST

Card Trimmings Don’t Go To Waste

September 24, 2021 Leave a Comment

Even though as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator I get 25% discount on all my orders, I still hate to waste my craft materials. But like most crafters the problem is storing materials and then, more importantly, being able to find what I need. For the past 7 years or so I've used the same system for managing my card trimmings so it's been well tested. I save scraps of all shapes and sizes and yet everything still fits into an 8-1/2" x 10" biscuit tin that sits on my desk. The key to ... VIEW POST
