Doing A Little Frosted Frames Surgery

December 14, 2019 2 Comments

My regular blog readers will know that I love extending the possibilities with my stamp sets. But I don't think I do it very often with dies. So today I thought I'd show you how I made the retiring Frosted Frames Dies useful all year. FROSTED FRAMES This project all started when I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue (Tombow) to fix some of the Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper to some Very Vanilla Card. Then I cut the layers out using the large fancy die from the Frosted Frames ... VIEW POST

Embrace The Brick Wall

October 30, 2019 2 Comments

You've probably guessed by now that I'm passionate about papercrafting. I suppose I have to be to design and create a new project every day for my blog. That doesn't mean that I don't experience a creative block every now and again, I do. However when I hit that brick wall I simply sit down and start playing and experimenting with tools and materials. I don't have a finished project in mind, or any kind of plan. I just play for the fun of it and try not to stress about 'making ... VIEW POST

The Power Of Inked Embossing

October 9, 2019 4 Comments

The very first card I made as part of my World Card Making Day challenge was this good luck card. I have to say that it's one of my favourites. I'm not sure if it's the colour scheme or the very striking inked embossing folder, whatever it is I love it. GOOD LUCK This card and my challenge began with the good luck sentiment from the Believe You Can (Host) Stamp Set. I stamped the image onto a piece of Very Vanilla Card using Tuxedo Black ink, then set to work with my Stampin' Blends ... VIEW POST

Garden Retirement

May 8, 2019 2 Comments

It's still almost 4 weeks until the Stampin' Up! 2019/2020 Annual Catalogue goes live and time is starting to drag. It's not that I don't have lots of lovely things to play with, but I feel like we're a little bit in limbo. I still have a stack of retiring products still to show you, but want to share the new stuff too. What's holding me back is that I don't want to get you all excited about something that you'll have to wait nearly a month to buy. That doesn't seem fair. So for now I'll ... VIEW POST

Sweet Baby & Onesie Tip

March 7, 2019 Leave a Comment

The other day I made a really simple congratulations card using the Sweet Baby Stamp Set. It was actually one of two cards I made during that session. This second card is a little more elaborate but I have a tip for adding the cute patterned onesie. FIRST THINGS FIRST To start my project I cut and scored a piece of Powder Pink Card using my Stampin' Trimmer. Then I folded it along the scored line and sharpened the crease with a Bone Folder to create the card base. Using ... VIEW POST

Too Much Tufted Fun

February 9, 2019 6 Comments

Today I start with an apology for the lateness of my blog. I've no excuse other than I was having too much fun creating today's project and forgot about the time. So hopefully better late than never, here's a gift tag using the Tufted Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. LUXURIOUSLY TUFTED BASE I started this project with a vague idea for a really luxurious looking base. So I cut a 2" x 4-1/4" piece of Merry Merlot Card and dampened it with clean water using a Stampin' ... VIEW POST
