Leaving Heart & Home

June 12, 2022 Leave a Comment

It’s a glorious Sunday morning here in Nova Scotia. Hubby plans to mow some more of the lawn but skirt around the lupins that are spreading nicely in our flower meadow. Here, lupins are considered by many to be weeds, unlike in the UK where people buy them at the garden centres. One of the reasons for developing a flower meadow is to encourage bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects. This was the inspiration for today’s simple Sunday card created using the retiring Heart & Home ... VIEW POST

Hand-Penned In New Colours

May 12, 2022 Leave a Comment

One of the fun things about having a new set of In Colors added to the Stampin’ Up! range every year is it encourages me to revisit older (but still available) products. Today I decided it was time to break out the Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set again. My original plan was simply to stamp one of the larger images and use the two-step stamping technique. However I simply couldn’t resist adding in a little heat embossing, before turning to the coordinating Penned Petals Dies. I’m very pleased with ... VIEW POST

Pretty Pillowbox For Spring

February 16, 2022 Leave a Comment

Today the weather is bright and sunny, but frigid. I'm not a cold weather person so winter can’t be over soon enough for me. I feel like a toddler constantly asking "Is it spring yet?" and being repeatedly disappointed. While I wait I've decided it can be spring in my craft studio and hopefully that will keep me going. So this morning I pulled out the Pretty Pillowbox Dies (carried over from the July to December 2021 Mini Catalogue) and decided it was definitely time for the daisies to ... VIEW POST

Beautiful Very Versailles Stamp Set

January 31, 2022 Leave a Comment

What a frustrating morning! My vintage style gift tag made using the Very Versailles Stamp Set was done yesterday, and today I just had to write the blog post. However, on-going problems with our rural internet have been worse than ever. Just recently it's been extremely unstable, cutting out every couple of minutes. Right now we have a temporary fix, but long-term we've been told we should upgrade our service. So instead of my planned crafting day I'll be researching our options. ... VIEW POST

Honeybee Home For #SimpleStamping

January 9, 2022 4 Comments

Ooh it's nippy out! After the snowstorm a couple of days ago it's pretty, but cold. Winter has hardly begun but I'm already counting down the days until spring. I'm looking forward to warmer weather and the return of colour and critters to our yard. For now though I’ll have to content myself by creating spring-like projects in my craft studio. For today's simple Sunday project I was drawn to the Honeybee Home Stamp Set. Designing this card was really easy with the coordinating Heart & ... VIEW POST

Bragworthy Meets Tasteful Textile Embossing

January 5, 2022 Leave a Comment

With the new Stampin' Up! Mini Catalogue launch and the start of the Sale-A-Bration promotion, yesterday was a very busy day. As promised I’ve updated my blog posts with links to all the products used to make each sneak peek project. I've also added links to yesterday's sneak peek review. So when I sat down yesterday evening to make a card it needed to be quick. In my head I thought I'd simply use a large sentiment and patterned paper. But when I picked up the Bragworthy sentiment suddenly my ... VIEW POST
