Stylish Shapes

February 15, 2023 Leave a Comment

Last November I completed my annual challenge to design and create 24 cards in 24 hours. It should have happened on World Card Making Day but was delayed due to Hurricane Fiona. Since then I’ve been bringing you the cards I made and providing instructions for your own personal use. Unfortunately some of my posts had to be delayed as products I used became temporarily ‘not orderable’. This is what happened with today’s birthday card featuring the Stepping Stones Stamp Set and the now back in ... VIEW POST

Ready To Ride Again

January 30, 2023 Leave a Comment

Over weekend I brought you two projects, a card and a gift tag where each one used a sentiment-only stamp set to complement an image-only set. I love the freedom these sets give me to mix and match without feeling guilty. Today I have a third sentiment-only stamp set but my images are not stamped. Instead I simply had to take advantage of one of the gorgeous glossy patterns in the Ready To Ride 12” x 12” Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP). You'll probably notice I’m a little bit ...

Stepping Stones Simplicity

December 9, 2022 Leave a Comment

Yesterday seemed to be another one of those days with lots of things to do and not enough time to do it in. Despite starting early I have a number of carry-over items on my to-do list today. But first I wanted to bring you instructions for another card designed and made during my personal “24 cards in 24 hours” challenge. The layout for this one is very simple and uses a 6” x 6” piece of patterned paper plus a very large sentiment from the Stepping Stones Stamp Set. TEXTURE CHIC I began ... VIEW POST

Stepping Stones Again

November 28, 2022 Leave a Comment

When I get a new Stampin’ Up! catalogue I always go through it several times, even before placing my first order. Over the years I’ve discovered that there are products I’m immediately drawn to. Then there’s others that creep up on me. There are even some that I overlook numerous times until it’s pointed out by someone else. The Stepping Stones Stamp set was one that had to grow on me, but I’m so glad I’ve got it now. Eventually I’ll even use it on some scrapbook pages I’ve planned. BIG ... VIEW POST

Stepping Stones

November 16, 2022 Leave a Comment

At the end of last week I received my latest group order and in it was a new stamp set just for me. It’s called Stepping Stones and it’s been on my wish list since I first saw it in the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue. The set is very simple and contains just six stamps, all quotations. I especially love the size of them and they’ll be perfect for inspirational cards, memory albums and other special projects. To start I decided to use a Stepping Stones sentiment on this ...

Wildflower Path Not A Snowbank

January 8, 2022 Leave a Comment

As I type this blog post it's just before 6pm on Friday. The winter storm started around 11am and has been relentless. If the deck railings are to be believed, we currently have about 6" (15cm) of snow on the ground with lots more to come. So I think therefore that it's Mother Nature's way of telling me I need to spend more time crafting. Mothers shouldn't be argued with, and so that's what I plan to do. But first I wanted to bring you this pretty project using the new Wildflower Path Stamp ... VIEW POST
