Yesterday I finally got a chance to look through the updated Last Chance List. This is something that Stampin’ Up! produces at the beginning of the even months e.g. February, April, June etc. It’s a quick way for Demonstrators to see which items are being retired and only available while stocks last. Many of the products that were added this month didn’t surprise me, but seeing the Floral Charm 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper (DSP) there did make me sad. So I’ve one last project using this ...

Last Orders For Floral Charm
Simple Sunday Joy
This weekend has been a busy one with lots to do and sadly not much time for crafting. However it did remind me that I needed a new To-Do List pad. So with that as an excuse I managed to squeeze in a quick half-hour session in my craft room. I already had a 3-1/2” x 7” pad I'd purchased a couple of weeks ago from Dollarama. While they’re useful (and inexpensive) there’s no attempt to make them look pretty, but with stamps, ink, card and some embellishments I quickly put that right. I began ... VIEW POST
Blends Transformation
I’m having a very busy weekend attending a two-day craft fair at the Lowland Garden Centre in Great Village. I love getting customers’ on the spot feedback of the things I have available for sale. But while it enables me to get ideas for future projects, it doesn’t leave much time for my blog. However I wasn’t going to let that beat me. So in double-quick time I created this autumn-themed bookmark using Stampin’ Blends and the September 2026 Product of the Month; Luxe Foliage Specialty Designer ... VIEW POST
Cutest Little Birdies
Oh my, yesterday really got away from me! It started with an early medical appointment, then some quick errands, before visiting with a friend. The main reason was to drop off her latest Stampin’ Up! order but I stopped for a chat over coffee. She also loves to bake, so we had some of that too. We chatted for quite some time and I completely forgot I had a blog post to write, so albeit a day late here’s a quick and easy card featuring the Cutest Crew Stamp Set. I began by cutting a 5-1/2" x ... VIEW POST
Sympathy With Prayers & Promises
Yesterday was a busy day with our cat Houdini having his annual exam and vaccinations. Sadly it left me little time to craft so I decided to put together a quick sympathy card. However I wanted to have something different for the background so I chose a subtle pattern from the Floral Charm 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper (DSP). Then with another coordinating pattern from the same pack all I needed was a sentiment. For that I pulled out the Prayers & Promises Stamp Set and I was ready to ... VIEW POST
Salutations & Birthday Greetings
What a start to September we’ve had! It seems like Mother Nature said “That’s it, summer’s over, you’re done”. It’s very wet and windy, but unlike the summer storms it’s also dark and gloomy too. I don’t mind autumn, but when I know it’s only a buffer zone before winter comes around it takes the shine off a bit. Still, I’m looking forward to embracing all the colours of autumn. That’s what attracted me to the toadstool design I used on today’s simple Sunday project, paired with a marvelous ... VIEW POST
