Itty Bitty Greetings for Itty Bitty Flowers

February 9, 2021 Leave a Comment

So my garden remains buried under mounds of snow, although at least we can now get down the drive. Yesterday's dreary grey sky has given way to beautiful clear blue, and if I stay inside I can even imagine it's spring. It's days like these that make me grateful for the flowers in my craft studio. This morning I couldn't resist pulling out the Sale-A-Bration Flower & Field Designer Series Paper (DSP) once again. This time I was drawn to an itty bitty flower design, and for my sentiment? ...

When In Doubt Add A Pretty Cover

September 6, 2020 Leave a Comment

As a papercrafter it's so easy to make everyday things pretty. I'm also very keen to use every scrap of paper and card that I buy. Waste not want not, eh. So when I came across a very boring 1-1/2" x 2" Post-It Note® pad I had the perfect idea. Why not add a quick cover to disguise the sticky notes into a mini book. So that's how I ended up with today's simple Sunday project. QUICK COVER At 1-1/2" x 2", my Post-It Note pad is one of the smallest, if not the smallest one they make. ... VIEW POST

A Busy Thanksgiving Weekend

October 12, 2019 2 Comments

It's Thanksgiving on Monday here in Canada and we're enjoying a long weekend. It's going to be a busy one, starting with the local Fire Department's annual auction. Every year I'm amazed by how much is donated for the sale and the amount of money raised. What's more, I love seeing things going to new homes rather than landfill. Reuse, repurpose, recycle. Thanksgiving weekend is also when the local craft bazaars where I sell many of my cards and projects close for the season. Not that ... VIEW POST

Autumn Colours And Textures

September 14, 2019 2 Comments

Ooh it was chilly this morning! Autumn is definitely in the air and the garden is starting to show it. I have a feeling my casserole recipe book is about to make it to the top of the pile. I do love autumn though, there's something about the colours and textures that never fail to inspire me. Today I decided to decorate a mini pizza box with a sweet sunflower as my focal point. Although I knew I wanted a yellow sunflower on my box, I began by looking at the Come To Gather 12" x 12" ... VIEW POST

Cow’s it going? Could be better…

The fact that my blog post is late being published should give you a clue about my morning. We're currently under an extreme heat warning here in Nova Scotia and it's already 20 degrees C by 9am. Then later today with the humidity it could end up feeling like 40 degrees! As if that wasn't enough, while working at my computer I got up to get a fresh coffee. I realised that the power lead was in danger of tripping me up so brought my foot up fast to avoid it and bashed by Achilles tendon on ... VIEW POST
