Simple Shades Of Gray

May 9, 2022 Leave a Comment

I love experimenting with colour. I often get inspiration from things I see around me, especially clothing and furnishings. Sometimes I’ll be out shopping and suddenly something catches my eye. If you’re close you’ll be able to see me grab my notebook and write down the ‘Stampin’ Up! colours' I see. I might even take a photo as a back-up. Other times I’ve no idea where my colour choices originate. Take today for instance, when I decided to use just Basic Gray and Gray Granite on this poppy gift ... VIEW POST

Sneak Peek Recap And More!

May 3, 2022 2 Comments

At last it’s here! After lots of anticipation the Stampin’ Up! 2022/2023 Annual Catalogue is now live for customers. It’s been fun playing with the products I was able to get during the Demonstrator pre-order period. However starting today I now have the whole catalogue to choose from, and it’s hard to decide what to get first. I’ll probably order a couple of stamp sets, some stand-alone dies and maybe some more paper. But while I wrestle with that dilemma, here’s a quick recap of my recent ... VIEW POST

An Adventure With He’s All That

April 27, 2022 Leave a Comment

From wildly colourful to something more subdued today. This sneak peek project was the first thing I wanted to make with the new He’s All That Stamp Set. I love this “every day with you is another adventure” sentiment, as I can see so many potential uses for it. The stamp set coordinates with the He’s the Man Designer Series Paper I showcased on Monday’s blog. There’s also coordinating All That Dies and new Rustic Metallic Self-Adhesive Dots that I’ll show you in a few days. But first the ... VIEW POST

Peaceful Deer Encircled In Beauty

December 18, 2021 Leave a Comment

One week today it will be Christmas Day and the final rush has begun. No matter how well you plan there's always those last minute jobs that simply can't be done earlier. Like buying fresh fruit and vegetables for Christmas dinner. But then there's the jobs that have been on your list since last Christmas, like making sure you have enough gift tags for the gifts. Or some extra cards to give. Today's project is one of my final Christmas cards for the year and uses the Peaceful Deer Stamp Set ... VIEW POST

One Final Happy Holly-Days Project

December 10, 2021 Leave a Comment

Ooh it's cold outside and the snow we had on Wednesday is still on the ground. Heavy rain is on the way though so it will probably all be gone by the weekend. It's still not clear whether we'll have a white Christmas but that doesn't change the fact that two weeks today will be Christmas Eve. Between now and then I'll enjoy getting a few final projects made with products that are retiring but currently still in stock. Today I decided to grab the Happy Holly-Days Stamp Set to make this pretty ... VIEW POST

Less Than A Month To Christmas

November 26, 2021 Leave a Comment

In case you weren't aware, this time next month Christmas will be over. You know even though I've been providing you with regular reminders, somehow, once again, Christmas has crept up on me. So now I'm back in that mad rush to get things done in time. I still have cards to make and mail, and other decorative items and gifts to assemble. This weekend I'll try to plan my shopping so I can buy the bulk of my groceries well ahead of time. Then with that done I'll spend a few hours in the craft ... VIEW POST
