Oh my goodness I just cannot get myself into gear today! Hubby and I had PCR tests done yesterday which confirmed the positive COVID results from the rapid tests on Monday. We’re both doing OK, lots of nose blowing mostly, although I have a sore throat that comes and goes. Self-isolation consists of watching the TV, reading, and a bit of crafting for me (although I’m easily distracted). Still, I did manage to design this “Hugs Prayers Love” card using the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set and ... VIEW POST
Positive News For Discounted Stamp Sets!
When looking through the Stampin' Up® catalogues I always tend to buy the stamp set & tool bundles I want first. That's because the bundles are discounted by 10% so it's a great way to get more for my crafting budget. Of course I mix and match my stamps, dies and punches so bundles give me lots of design flexibility too. Stand-alone stamp sets tend to come further down my wish list as far as ordering goes. So I was delighted to see that tomorrow Stampin' Up! is offering almost all cling ... VIEW POST
Positive Thoughts Will Get Me Through The Day
Nova Scotia is under a heat warning and it's not going to cool down for a couple of days yet. Yesterday at 4.30pm it was 29C, feeling like 39C with the humidity. At 7.30 this morning it's already 20C, but feeling like 23C, and it's set to heat up considerably throughout the day. Thankfully I don't have to go out today. So I'm setting my weather thoughts aside and feeling positive about the day ahead. I'll spend my time in my craft studio with the fan on. A little organising, a little ... VIEW POST
Positive Thoughts For Another Simple Sunday
Ooh I'm feeling a chill in the air that has no place in July. I've almost been tempted to put the heating on, but instead I'll grab a sweater and socks. On a positive note the damp ground means the mowing will have to wait. Instead, I get to spend those hours playing in my craft studio. I'm still decluttering and reorganising so there will be a little work going on. Creating pretty projects using some new products from Stampin' Up! will be my reward. Meanwhile for today's simple Sunday ... VIEW POST
Hugs, Prayers And Love Are Always Welcome
Today's been one of those morning where everything seems to be taking that much longer to do. I woke up with a pretty good idea of my project design, all I needed was decide on the paper and stamp set. With everything that's going on in the world I was immediately drawn to the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set. I haven't used this set in months but the "Hugs Prayers Love" sentiment just seemed appropriate. FLOWERS FOR EVERY SEASON I actually began today's project by looking through the ... VIEW POST
Simple Thoughts For A Simple Sunday
I've been up for hours and sadly sunrise was a non-event. It's 'daylight' now but a bit damp and quite foggy which I wasn't expecting. Still, hubby reliably informs me that the weather will improve so I can get some washing on the line. In the meantime I thought I'd generate positive thoughts with this week's simple Sunday project. POSITIVE THOUGHTS Today's project started with a vague idea to create a simple monochrome card. My initial idea was to use the Beautiful Moments Stamp Set ... VIEW POST
