I think I'm in love with the Well Written Dies. They're the ones with lots of different words that coordinate with the Well Said Stamp Set. One of the best things about these dies is that they come out of the dies really easily. What's more, unlike some other words dies I've seen, these ones are totally readable. In fact I've been playing with this set and now have a stack of words just waiting for attention. So I picked up bride & groom, and set to work. PRETTY INSIDE AND ... VIEW POST
Incredible Like You for #WWYS208
Some stamps sets attract me because of the images, some because of the sentiments, and some for both. I must admit that the Incredible Like You Stamp Set was more about the sentiments for me. I love the two fonts used for each one, crisp clear and easy to read. They're a good size too so you won't miss them on a project. So the focus of my Design Team contribution for this week's What Will You Stamp? challenge, WWYS208 Incredible Like You, should come as no surprise. CONTRASTING ... VIEW POST
WCMD 2018 Personal Challenge
If you saw yesterday's blog post you'll know that I set myself a personal challenge to mark World Card Making Day. Starting at 12 noon on October 6th I would design and make from scratch, 24 cards in 24 hours. In the first 10 hours I managed to complete 12 cards including the inside and envelopes. Then I remembered that I hadn't written today's blog post! So here I am after 10 solid hours of crafting, faithfully typing up a blog post for you. As I stifle yet another ... VIEW POST
Window Box Thinlits Thank You
It will soon be the second Monday in October, and here in Nova Scotia that means Thanksgiving. Follow that with Halloween and then Christmas and there's a lot of 'giving' on the way. So today I thought I would play with a great box option from the Stampin' Up! 2018/2019 Annual Catalogue, the Window Box Thinlits. WINDOW BOX THINLITS Despite it's name the box doesn't look like a window (that's a reference to the oter dies in the set designed to cut pieces from box. Actually the ... VIEW POST
Labels To Love Rediscovered
Even though it's only September, I'm having a hard time staying away from my Christmas stamp sets. I suppose it's because they're new, and sitting in a little stack on my craft desk. So I'm making a special effort to rediscover some of my older, but still available Stampin' Up! sets. Today my attention turned to Labels to Love Stamp Set. Yes I know it's got a lot of Christmas images, but there's others in there too. I grabbed the give thanks image with two little leafy branches and set to ... VIEW POST
I love what I do
As someone who considered themselves to be not very artistic, it never ceases to amaze me that I'm now passionate about papercrafting and couldn't imagine not creating something on a daily basis. The Love What You Do Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! sums it up really and it was this set I turned to when I sat down to make thank you cards for all the customers who placed orders with me in July. I really appreciate their business, and for today's simple Sunday Project I thought I'd show you the ... VIEW POST
