Today’s Plan: Make A Christmas Fridge Magnet

December 5, 2020 Leave a Comment

Today's blog project comes to you courtesy of my fridge. As usual after getting up and having a shower I went downstairs to make my morning coffee. Often a project idea will come to me overnight but today my mind was blank. It was only as I went to the fridge to get the milk that I thought about a fridge magnet. I haven't made one in quite a while, so that was in my head as I made my way to my studio. I was thinking of using magnetic sheet for the base, but as I sat down I saw a large ... VIEW POST

Wrap a chocolate bar with Snowflake Splendor paper and add a sentiment from the Itty Bitty Christmas Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Try A Simpler Way To Wrap A Gift

November 29, 2020 Leave a Comment

Do you give little token gifts to people who help you, or add them to children's stockings? It occurred to me that even though they might be small and inexpensive there's no reason why these gifts can't be dressed up. So today's simple Sunday project is more of an idea for a pinched end wrap. I thought I'd better show you while I still had this yummy After Eight chocolate bar. SIMPLE WRAP I began by measuring the length of the chocolate bar (about 4-1/2"). Then I cut a 6" strip from ... VIEW POST

Sharing A Little Winter Joy

November 15, 2020 Leave a Comment

I'm not sure what happened yesterday but my "to do" list never really moved. It was one of those days where I just felt like curling up on the sofa with a good book. So that's what I did. I was deep into "The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest" by Stieg Larsson and I just couldn't put it down. So this morning's simple Sunday project had to be made in record time. JOY TO THE WORLD My pretty gift tag began with a small scrap of paper from the Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper ... VIEW POST

Poinsettia Place Pieces

October 16, 2020 Leave a Comment

It's time to get going on my Christmas gift tags. Once upon a time I rarely made tags, but now I design at least one a week. They're a great way to practice techniques or ideas, and to use up scraps. Today I found my scraps in the Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper (DSP). FOLDED TAG The last few tags I've made have all been flat strips with a sentiment and embellishments. To change things up I decided to make a folded gift tag this time. So I began with a 3" x 6" piece of ... VIEW POST

Christmas card with gift design created using the Itty Bitty Christmas Stamp Set and Flowers For Every Season Stamp paper from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Gift or card, or perhaps it’s both

September 17, 2020 Leave a Comment

Sometimes the simplest of ideas can turn into the prettiest projects. While playing with the Flowers For Every Season 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper (DSP) I decided to make a Christmas Card. Of course I couldn't help but pull out the gorgeous poinsettia design for this. However, instead of starting with the card front I assembled the inside and envelope first. Then while looking at what was left of the DSP, an idea popped into my head. I'd turn it into gift wrap, and from there the card ... VIEW POST

Step By Step Ornament Colouring

September 4, 2020 Leave a Comment

Today's project was supposed to be a quick gift tag using one of the ornament images from the Christmas Gleaming Stamp Set. In the end it took me a lot longer than I'd planned as I decided to stop and take a photograph at every stage. So with an unusually photograph heavy blog post, here's my finished project. TAKE ONE ORNAMENT So I started today's project with one of the larger ornament images in the Christmas Gleaming Stamp Set. Using Night of Navy ink I stamped the image onto Very ... VIEW POST
