Today is Mother’s Day in the UK. It’s much earlier than here in Canada but their daffodils are already blooming. Ours will be a while yet given the rollercoaster temperatures we’re getting. Later today I’ll get to video chat with my daughter and three granddaughters. Meanwhile I shall enjoy my morning coffee from the new “grandma” mug they sent me earlier this week. Today’s simple Sunday project is a “thinking of you” card using three more retiring products including the gorgeous Beautiful ... VIEW POST
Retirement Day Is Here
Anyone else excited by retirement? Today's the day that we find out which Stampin' Up! products are being discontinued. However we must wait just a little longer as the Retiring List won't be revealed until 4pm Atlantic (1pm MT). At the same time, Stampin' Up! Demonstrators will get their first look at the new 2022/2023 Annual Catalogue. Something that definitely won’t be in the new catalogue are the 2020/22 In Colors. So before they’re completely sold out here’s one final card project using all ... VIEW POST
Caught Up In The Moment
I’ve always been enthralled by nature, and even more so since moving to Nova Scotia. We’re very fortunate to have a large piece of land that attracts all sorts of wildlife. Just recently we’ve been treated to daily visits from a number of white tailed deer and today was no exception. Although I counted 10 deer eating at various spots, what caught my attention was something just off to the side, two small fawns hidden in the long grass. At that moment I couldn’t help but simply stand and ... VIEW POST
Bragworthy Meets Beautiful Moments
While it’s the images that often draw me to a new stamp set, I love fun sentiments. In the Stampin’ Up! 2021/2022 Annual Catalogue it was Lighthearted Lines that caught my eye. So when their new Mini Catalogue was revealed I wondered if there would be something similar. Bragworthy was exactly what I was hoping for and I’ve already made a few projects using this set. Today though I finally got around to the sentiment that gave the stamp set its name, and all it took was a ... VIEW POST
Another Special Moments Idea
We all have a friend who’s completely daft. Sometimes more than one. They’re the one who keeps you laughing with their ideas and antics. Who pull silly faces and say silly things, and without whom life would be very boring indeed. So when I was asked to create a cover for a pocket photo album this was my brief. I found the perfect sentiment in the free Sale-A-Bration stamp set called Special Moments and, with the addition of an image from Senior Years, this is what ... VIEW POST
Taking A Moment To Read And Relax
Thank heavens it's finally Friday! This week has seemed to go on forever, but somehow there's still a lot on my to do list. My plan today is to warm up with a few easy jobs before attacking one of the larger ones. Then as a reward I may take 30 minutes to recharge with a good book. I'm a 'real' book kind of person, and of course that means I need a proper bookmark. Here's one I made a few days ago using the In The Moment Stamp Set. IN THE MOMENT As soon as I saw it I knew I'd have ... VIEW POST
