Fun suit bag designed using the Suit & Tie Dies from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Having Fun Designing A Casual Suit Bag

January 13, 2021 Leave a Comment

This morning my task was to create something that wasn't a card. I had a vague idea of using a small gift bag but nothing more than that. So I must be honest and admit that I've no idea how I ended up with this casual suit bag. All I can say is sometimes my best ideas come when I don't try to think too hard. FABRIC CHOICES After I pulled out the small gift bag I had the idea to cover the whole of the front rather than just add a panel. The Suit & Tie Dies were the perfect scale ... VIEW POST

Wonderful Creative Times Lie Ahead

January 10, 2021 Leave a Comment

OK so I'm now at that horrible point when I have new crafting products on the way, but they're still in transit. I know I have lots of wonderful products already in my studio but like a small child I want my new toys now. It's not that I don't want to play with what I have but I can see so many possibilities that lie ahead. I love mixing old products with new ones and getting even more from them But I suppose I'll just have to be patient a few more days. So while I wait I decided to make ... VIEW POST

What Do You Hope Will Be Carried Over?

November 6, 2020 Leave a Comment

Over the next couple of days Stampin' Up! will be revealing new products from the January to June 2021 Mini Catalogue to Demonstrators. It's always an exciting time especially since we'll be able to order them starting in December. Between the reveal and then we just have to make our lists and endlessly check and adjust them. What we probably won't find out until next week though is the list of products that are retiring from the August to December 2020 Mini Catalogue. There are a number of ... VIEW POST

Halloween Packaging

October 26, 2020 Leave a Comment

It's been one of those frustrating mornings when I had things to do but technology dictated the timeline. I filmed a short video showing how to make a simple Halloween "sour cream" treat package. It might have been short but the edited video took forever to upload to YouTube. Halloween isn't the only scary thing around here, our internet often gives me nightmares too. So in an effort to speed things up I switched everything else off to maximise my rural bandwidth. It's only now, about 4 ... VIEW POST

Tasteful Textile For A Unique Pine Cone

October 21, 2020 2 Comments

My regular readers will know that I love getting more from my crafting supplies. Today's project features an experiment using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder to give my pine cone a very unique look. TEXTILE BACKGROUND Before getting to the pine cone though I first needed to prepare the other parts of the project. For this I chose a woven textile design from the In Good Taste 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. I began by using my Paper Trimmer to cut and score some ... VIEW POST

I Love A Can Do Attitude

October 14, 2020 Leave a Comment

Last week I decorated a notebook with a pretty poinsettia patterned paper. As I finished the project I realised that my hubby could do with a notebook to keep track of all those little jobs that need doing around the house. So now he's had his vacation time approved I decided it was time to make that notebook. In fact I opted for a notepad with plain pages. That way he can include his little sketches and measurements for each job. Anything I can do to make his tasks easier is a bonus ... VIEW POST
