We're now one week into the Last Chance promotion for the January to June 2022 Mini Catalogue. As I suspected, the New Horizons 6” x 6” Designer Series Paper (DSP) sold out very quickly. So now that and a number of other sold out products are gone for good. Over the next week or two my plan is to bring you projects using some of the other retiring products while they remain available. Today’s I've created a sweet mini pocket photo album featuring the last of the Mischievous Mice ... VIEW POST
Sweet Strawberry Swansong
I'm still working my way through the Retiring List and giving them all one last hurrah. Today’s project features four retiring products... the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set and the coordinating Strawberry Builder Punch, plus the Ornate Frames and Tasteful Labels Dies. These two sets of dies have been a staple in my craft studio and therefore I’ll probably miss them the most. The Strawberry Builder Punch also coordinates with the Sentimental Swirls Stamp Set in the January to June 2022 Mini ... VIEW POST
A Paper Pumpkin Thing – Lots Of Pun
If you've been following my blog for a while you'll know that I love a good pun. So you can only imagine how egg-cited I was to get the December Paper Pumpkin kit called Lots of Pun.

Oh, and I couldn't help including a little new product sneak peek too... The exclusive stamp set included the Lots Of Pun kit ... VIEW POST
Christmas Kitchen Tip With Lots Of Pun
With Christmas only a few days away thoughts now turn to the kitchen. Or more specifically the freezer and the certain knowledge that I'm bound to forget to take something out. While making my last few craft projects I am simultaneously thinking about the food I need/want to prepare. So this is how I ended up with today's bookmark project using some bits from the December Paper Pumpkin kit called Lots of Pun. As well as marking my place in a recipe book my bookmark is going to help me stay ... VIEW POST
Peaceful Sunday And Making Plans
Yesterday was another busy day for me as I attended my final craft fair of the season. This one was at the Fundy Geological Museum in Parrsboro, Nova Scotia and as usual very well organised. It was good to see so many people taking the opportunity to buy from local crafts people. While I love attending these events and meeting customers old and new, it can be quite a tiring day overall. So my Sunday will be spent relaxing and planning for the rest of the month. But first I needed to create ... VIEW POST
Sweets & Treats Is Not Quite Done Yet
I've been going through my stamp sets and other products from the July to December 2021 Mini Catalogue that are about to retire. It's always a bitter sweet moment as I hate to say goodbye to my favourites. However it's tempered by the excitement at all the lovely new things that are coming. So until then I'm going to make the most of the time I have left. Today's project uses the retiring Sweets & Treats Stamp Set to make a Christmas fridge magnet to hold those last minute ...
