Summer Meadow

August 4, 2022 Leave a Comment

It’s going to be another one of those hot and humid days. With a heat warning in place I’ve just closed up all the windows and drawn the curtains. That should keep the house relatively cool as the temperature begins to climb. Later, once it starts to cool again and the onshore breeze picks up, I’ll open up the house again. In the meantime I shall be mostly crafting. Today’s project was inspired by the pretty butterflies I saw while mowing a path through our flower meadow at the ... VIEW POST

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

Gift tag created using the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set with Sunflowers and Tailor Made Tags Dies from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

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
