5" x 7" notebook with a "You Me & the Sea" sentiment and other products from the Come Sail Away Suite by Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

You Me & The Sea

August 9, 2019 2 Comments

I love notebooks, and as a papercrafter I love decorating them too. Whether it's for a simple list, or to record something more permanent, notebooks are a big part of my life. Big or small, ruled or plain, you can never have enough. My late son Russell obviously took after me as when we went through his things we found lots of notebooks. He was an avid reader and loved to write his own stories, even going so far as to take courses in creative writing. His genre was science fiction, and I ... VIEW POST

Wallace Museum Wants Me

August 5, 2019 4 Comments

While I do use some of what I make, I can't keep everything and it's nice to give others the opportunity to buy them. A little while back I had a table at a local event and I was approached by the Manager from the Wallace and Area Museum. She loved my creations and asked if I would be willing to provide items for their gift shop. Would I? Most definitely! So I've been designing and making things that would reflect the feel and focus of the Museum and the Come Sail Away suite has been ... VIEW POST

Don’t Forget The Date, Place & Story

July 30, 2019 2 Comments

My regular blog followers will know that I've resolved to get going on some memory keeping. So far I've created a few pocket photo albums and even the odd 12" x 12" scrapbook page. Meanwhile I'm organising some photos and getting them printed off where needed. Something I've discovered is that going through old photographs can be very time consuming. Not just because of the quantity, and the fact that the digital ones are in lots of different places, but because of the lack of information. ... VIEW POST

A Weekend For Adventure

June 28, 2019 Leave a Comment

Yesterday a dear friend of mine shared an online article from 2015 written by a professional photographer, Mike Yost. It was titled "The Most Photographed Generation Will Have No Pictures in 10 Years!" As I read the article, a lot of what Mike said really hit home. I too grew up in an age of film photography where you didn't know how the shot turned out until you'd paid to have the film developed. For this reason many people only took photos on special occasions, or to mark particular ... VIEW POST

Discovering New Sentiments

June 11, 2019 Leave a Comment

Stampin' Up! have always been known for their amazing coordination, it's what makes papercrafting using their products so easy. They've taken things up a notch in recent years though with their 'product suites'. Now, as well as coordinating stamps, ink and paper, there's other items too. So when I was looking for a new sentiment I turned to the Memories & More Card Packs. The Memories & More range was quite deliberately named, it's not just a memory keeping solution. The cards and ... VIEW POST

Accidental Seaside Sneak Peek

May 4, 2019 2 Comments

Today my plan was to create something using the retiring Lift Me Up Stamp Set and coordinating Up & Away Thinlits Dies. In that respect I succeeded. But as I was starting to put the card together I realised that I'd stamped the images using the wrong ink pad. So instead of my intended Balmy Blue, you now have a little sneak peek of the new Seaside Spray. IN THE CLOUDS I started the project with a layer of Whisper White Card and the two shaded cloud images from the Lift Me Up Stamp ... VIEW POST
