Back On Your Feet Meets Many Messages

December 3, 2021 Leave a Comment

I'm having altogether too much fun combining elements from different stamp sets right now. Just when I think I've exhausted my imagination something else comes along to excite me. This time it was the unlikely pairing of the Back On Your Feet Stamp Set and the multi-sentiment Many Messages Stamp. I always think of Back On Your Feet as a stamp set for get well projects but it doesn't have to be that limited. It was my determination to show how you can use the Many Messages Stamp Set without ... VIEW POST

Rediscovering The Sunflowers

September 9, 2021 Leave a Comment

Autumn is definitely getting a foothold here in Nova Scotia. As I drove into town yesterday I noticed quite a few trees have started to replace green with bright reds and yellows. While we don't have any fields of sunflowers, somehow when I think of autumn I always think of them. So today I decided that I'd pull out the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set and coordinating Sunflowers Dies for this pretty gift tag. CELEBRATE SUNFLOWERS WITH MARKERS Instead of ink pads I thought it would be ... VIEW POST

Technique Practice With Garden Birdhouses

August 12, 2021 Leave a Comment

The past couple of days I've been working late at the pharmacy, and I'm not good with late nights. I'm an early bird and definitely in the 'early to bed early to rise' camp. So when my routine is disrupted and I finally have time for a crafting session I often start simple. Today I just wanted to practice a few techniques for adding colour to my stamped creations. So I decided to create a bookmark, it's not too overwhelming but gives me an opportunity to create something pretty. This ... VIEW POST

Put A Partridge In A Pear Wreath

July 6, 2020 Leave a Comment

We're now into the second half of the year and December will be here before we know it. So I've resolved to make a few Christmas projects every week to save myself some stress. Today's project is a sweet card that will have you singing to yourself while you make it. At least that's what happened to me as I put the partridge in my pear wreath. FIRST THE WREATH I began by creating the wreath background from the Arrange A Wreath Stamp Set. The wreath is quite large and personally I find ... VIEW POST

A Decorated Notepad For Every Situation

February 29, 2020 Leave a Comment

It's no secret that I'm a list person and consequently love pretty notebooks and notepads. In fact I have quite a few, each one designed to address a specific need. The other day I realised that the one I use for simple shopping lists was almost gone. So in true papercrafter style I found a plain notepad and turned it into something much nicer. FIRST CAME THE NOTEPAD This project all started with the notepad I found on a recent trip to Dollarama. The pages are 3-1/4" by 5-3/4" ... VIEW POST

Simply Creating My Own Super Bowl

February 2, 2020 Leave a Comment

It's Super Bowl Sunday and we're planning a lazy day watching the game. So for my Simple Sunday project I thought I'd create my own super bowl using the Make A Splash Stamp Set. FIRST MAKE YOUR FISH BOWL I began my project with a layer of Whisper White Card and a Smoky Slate ink pad. First I stamped the bowl image towards the bottom, then I added the "Just keep swimming" sentiment towards the top. For the gravel at the bottom I could have used browns and greys but decided on ...
