Ta Ta Tag Topper Punches

March 28, 2022 Leave a Comment

Although I’ve recovered from the cold symptoms I experienced with my recent COVID infection, I still have some lingering side-effects. Most annoying for me is a foggy brain. It’s improving, however not quickly enough for me. So crafting is my release and I’m enjoying revisiting products and techniques I haven’t used in a while. Today’s project was an experiment using an alcohol ink technique on clear window sheet. I liked the results so much I turned it into a bookmark using the retiring Fancy ... VIEW POST

Sweets & Treats – Cupcake Edition

September 15, 2021 Leave a Comment

A week or two ago I created a fun bookmark with an apple pie image using the Sweets & Treats Stamp Set. For today's project I went back to the same set but this time for the cupcake. Little images like this make great focal points for simple cards but today I went even smaller. So here's a 3" x 3" card turned into a gift tag with the addition of a punch and twine. It's a great way to practice #simplestamping ideas. FOLDED GIFT TAG I began with my Paper Trimmer and cut a 3" x 6" ... VIEW POST

Dressed To Impress With A Lipstick Or Two

August 6, 2021 2 Comments

Today's project was one of those happy accidents that happen from time to time. I was sorting through through some of my older but still available stamp sets and came across Dressed To Impress. This is such a fun set including a shoe, perfume bottle and flower images. But my favourite image is the lipstick. This set hasn't seen ink in a long time, so I decided to take a break from organising and make a quick project instead. COLOURFUL LIPSTICK I began with a 2" x 5-1/2" strip of ... VIEW POST

Trying Out A Different Twine Idea

June 30, 2021 Leave a Comment

Every now and then I get an idea and when I have a few minutes to spare I give it a try. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. Today's quick project has a little of both, but I thought it worth showing you anyway. The not so successful task was combining Bermuda Bay and Shaded Spruce inks. I think I was a bit over-enthusiastic with the Shaded Spruce and the Bermuda Bay kind of got lost. However my idea to use two contrasting colours of baker's twine was definitely a hit for ...
