I'm still working my way through the Retiring List and giving them all one last hurrah. Today’s project features four retiring products... the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set and the coordinating Strawberry Builder Punch, plus the Ornate Frames and Tasteful Labels Dies. These two sets of dies have been a staple in my craft studio and therefore I’ll probably miss them the most. The Strawberry Builder Punch also coordinates with the Sentimental Swirls Stamp Set in the January to June 2022 Mini ... VIEW POST
Celebrating You For An Anniversary
Every card maker needs a good set of basic sentiments. Over the years I’ve collected a lot of them. Mostly they’ve come as part of a set with images, but not all. My current favourite sentiment-only stamp set is Celebrating You. This set of 16 sentiments covers most celebrations, and the fonts used are simply gorgeous. They’re crisp and clear and neat (I'm not keen on many of the ‘looser’ script styles). Today I decided it was time to make an anniversary card, and Celebrating You was there ... VIEW POST
Box Clever When In A Hurry
So this is going to be a super quick blog post. We have a severe winter storm that's just started to ramp up and I'm not sure how long the internet and power will stay on. With that in mind I decided that decorating a gift box would be a speedy option. The sentiment is quite generic, but makes this a box that can be used for any occasion. Making up the box is really simple as it comes ready assembled as a base with separate lid. All I had to do was fold in the side flaps on each piece, ... VIEW POST
IDEAS Blog Hop – New Year’s Resolutions
This month our theme is "New Year's Resolutions" which left quite a lot of room for interpretation. Every year I`m determined to improve my organisation and so I decided to create a perpetual calendar as my contribution to the IDEAS tutorial bundle PDF. With a perpetual calendar you write down birthdays, anniversaries and other events that occur on the same date each year. But unlike a traditional annual calendar you can keep using it year after year. My version includes twelve individual ... VIEW POST
It’s Been One Of ‘Those’ Days
Have you ever had one of those days where you thought you were being super organised and on top of things, only to find the exact opposite? Well that's been me today. For more than a week I've been planning my contribution to a blog hop involving a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. The blog post was done and my part of the Tutorial PDF completed. All I had to do was wait until 3pm Atlantic Time for it to go live. Unfortunately, it's only now I've realised that I've ...

Don’t Overlook Ornate Frames
Have you taken advantage of the Seasonal Sale yet? Quite a few of my customers were quick off the mark and have already saved on card, ink pads and dies. Yesterday's blog project included the Tasteful Labels Dies which is one of my favourites when cutting out larger sentiments. For smaller sentiments my goto is the Ornate Frames Dies and it features on today's gift box idea. QUICK BOX While I do make my own boxes it's handy to have an instant option. The Mini Paper Pumpkin box is one ... VIEW POST
