Pansy Petals And Pretty Gingham

March 18, 2022 Leave a Comment

With only another five days to go before we see the retiring list I’m continuing to rediscover products I haven’t used in a while. Today I pulled out the Pansy Petals suite but didn’t quite manage to use it all. You see when I opened up the Pansy Dies, out fell a bag of pieces cut from the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper (DSP). But they hadn’t been fussy cut, I’d actually used the dies to do that. So from there today’s pretty sticky note pad came together really quickly. PANSY PETALS ... VIEW POST

Pretty Pieces Of Pansy Petals

February 6, 2022 Leave a Comment

Well it's official. Hubby went out yesterday to start chipping away at the layer of ice on the driveway and measured it at 5-1/4" up in front of the garage. Unfortunately we're not going to see much of a thaw and it could take weeks to shift completely. Meanwhile I've decided that it's not too early for spring in the craft room. So for this morning's simple Sunday project I pulled out my scraps of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper (DSP). With a little fussy cutting and the Pansy Patch ... VIEW POST

Autumn Colours And A Squirrel

August 14, 2021 Leave a Comment

No change here. It's hot and muggy and typically I'm thinking about cooler weather. Fall isn't far away and a change of decor will be needed in my dining room. So out go the bright flowers and in come the more muted neutral tones of autumn. That means I need to create napkin rings using the Nuts About Squirrels Stamp Set. That's my excuse, and I'm sticking to it... NAPKIN RING I began by making the ring part of my napkin ring. First I cut a 2" x 5" piece of Pale Papaya Card, rolled ... VIEW POST

Hats Off To Enhanced Faux Stitching

July 14, 2021 Leave a Comment

I don't know what it is about Nova Scotia but it seems just about everyone (guys at least) wear hats. I friend showed me her husband's collection the other day and the closet reminded me of others I'd seen. So I suppose it was only fitting that I get the new Hats Off Stamp Set and Hat Builder Dies from Stampin' Up!. They've got lots amazing details but I thought I could step it up a notch with some enhanced faux stitching. HATS OFF TO THE DESIGNERS I began by choosing the small floral ... VIEW POST

Relieved To Be Home At Long Last

June 21, 2021 2 Comments

Back at the beginning of March I made a transatlantic dash to be with my daughter who'd given birth to twins at 34-1/2 weeks by emergency c-section. Thankfully due to swift action by the medical staff at Wexham Park Hospital Mum and babies made it through without any complications. Since then I've been in the UK spending valuable time with the twins, their amazing big sister Alyssa, my daughter and son in law. Now after jumping through a great many hoops I've finally made it home ... VIEW POST

When Is A Pansy Not A Pansy

June 15, 2021 Leave a Comment

I must say that I love pansies. For someone who's a lazy gardener I'm delighted when a pansy self-seeds and saves me the trouble of planting new flowers. What's more they come back every year in my little area of Canada which is a huge bonus. But indoors I've been wondering whether there's more to the Pansy Petals suite from Stampin' Up! So I started experimenting. Today's project is perfect if you're looking for something a little more tropical. PANSY PIECES Yes that really is a ... VIEW POST
