Feminine birthday card created using the Beautiful Friendship and Crackle Paint Stamp Sets from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme #simplestamping

Crackle Paint Bites The Dust

May 7, 2020 Leave a Comment

I'm still working my way through the list of retiring stamp sets and trying to use each of them one last time. Today it's the turn of a background stamp, Crackle Paint. It's one of those background designs that adds a little interest without overwhelming the rest of the project. I have a feeling I'm going to miss this one. BEAUTIFUL FRIENDSHIP Although I'm reminding you about Crackle Paint, this project actually started with the Beautiful Friendship Stamp Set. It's been in the Annual ... VIEW POST

Brighten Your Day With Pineapple Punch

March 27, 2020 Leave a Comment

Today is a day off from working in the pharmacy and I had a very rare lie-in. So consequently I will be playing catch-up for most of the day. It's not all bad though as all my tasks relate to my crafting and Stampin' Up! business. I'm beginning work on a new project collaboration and have a video conference scheduled for noon. It's top secret right now, but I can tell you I'm really excited about it. Despite the fresh snowfall yesterday I'm definitely in a brighter mood. So I thought I'd ... VIEW POST

Just Do Something Creative

September 13, 2019 2 Comments

Whether it's stamping, painting, sewing or writing poetry, time and again the benefits of being creative are confirmed by scientific studies. As children we can't help but create things, it's how we learn. But as we grow older being creative is seen as less important than other forms of education or relaxation. Whether you think you're 'good' or not, try to find some time every day to exercise your personal brand of creativity. You don't even have to share it with anyone else, it's the doing ... VIEW POST

A Card for Mother’s Day

May 12, 2019 2 Comments

Happy North American Mother's Day (the UK had their Mother's Day back in March). Today's Simple Sunday project had to be a Mother's Day card, but would work with any number of other sentiments. MOTHER'S DAY TEA TOGETHER I began my project by stamping the rose image from the Tea Together Stamp Set in the bottom right corner on a layer of Very Vanilla Card using Tuxedo Black ink. Then I stamped it again onto a scrap of Thick Very Vanilla Card. Instead of my usual yellow rose I ... VIEW POST

Happy (whatever) Anniversary

March 13, 2019 2 Comments

I've made a lot of gift tags over the years. Probably most of them were for Christmas, closely followed by birthdays. What I don't think I've made very often is a tag for an anniversary. Of course when you think of anniversary you probably think of wedding anniversary, but there are others too. Anniversary of when you met, or got a new job, or moved house. The anniversary list could be endless. So here's my gift tag for a million different occasions. THE TAG BASE I began with a ... VIEW POST
