Looking Forward To Father’s Day

May 10, 2021 Leave a Comment

Now that Mother's Day has passed it's time to think about Father's Day. Sadly it seems that too will be celebrated at a distance this year. So today's mini photo album project, while quick and easy, could help bridge the gap. A CUT ABOVE This Father's Day project actually started without an end project in mind. It was one of those afternoons where I just wanted to spend some quiet time colouring. Instead of flowers I decided to pull out the A Cut Above Stamp Set. From the fun ... VIEW POST

Layering Ovals To The Rescue

April 15, 2021 Leave a Comment

Sometimes when I sit down to craft I know exactly what I'm going to do. Other times I just start playing and see where I end up. Today's project was one of those created without any real plan, and it was saved by the retiring Layering Ovals Dies. WELL SUITED It all began after I found an 8" x 10" brown carrier bag in my stash. It's very boring, but I remember buying it because I thought it was a perfect 'blank canvas' just waiting to be decorated. I'd been making lots of quite ... VIEW POST

Father's Day card with "a good dad" sentiment and paper pieced image created using A Good Man Stamp Set and Woven Threads DSP from Stampin' Up!

Tiny Woven Threads

June 6, 2019 Leave a Comment

I'm still obsessed with the new Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper (DSP) and determined that this year I'll use it to the max. I hate to waste my crafting supplies and will save the smallest pieces of card and DSP 'just in case'. Today's project is another idea for using those small scraps. For this masculine card I used just pieces from the Woven Threads Designer Series Paper. CRACKED ICE TECHNIQUE I began by creating my card base using Thick Whisper White Card. Then I got to work ...

Mosaic Mood And Geared Up Garage

May 20, 2019 Leave a Comment

Today's What Will You Stamp? Challenge is #WWYS220 - Geared Up Garage. This stamp set is in the 2019 Occasions Catalogue and I was so happy when I it had been carried over into the new catalogue. Also carried over was the coordinating Garage Gears Dies and Classic Garage Metal Elements (silver wrenches / spanners and keys). Sadly though, the Designer Series Paper and black and silver ribbon didn't make the cut. So when I was thinking about my WWYS Design Team project for this week I ... VIEW POST

Double trouble

June 17, 2018 2 Comments

I have a lots of stamp sets (more than  I dare admit) so I also have lots of different sentiments.  Sometimes though I like to be able to make up my own phrases, or add some personalisation to a project, and that's where alphabet stamp sets come in.  Mind you I suggest that you look carefully when selecting your letters or you might end up writing something you hadn't planned, like I nearly did with the Pick a Pennant Stamp Set from Stampin' Up!  You see the Pick a Pennant Stamp Set has ...
