So yesterday was a busy day as Stampin’ Up! revealed the 2023/2024 Annual Catalogue to Demonstrators. There’s lots of lovely new things coming, but sadly that means something else has to go. So for the next few weeks I want to highlight some of my favourite retiring products like the Campology Stamp Set. Just be aware that while I’ll always check that something is still available for you to buy if you want, popular items can sell out without warning. So if there’s something you like, please ...

Autumn Sadness
When I began cardmaking almost ten years ago I only had a few supplies. So in a desperate desire to make my meagre stash go as far as possible I began to experiment.

Honeybee Home Easel Calendar For 2022
Happy New Year everyone, and welcome to 2022. I'm not quite sure where 2021 went but very thankful it's gone.
