Yesterday’s gift tag was a fun exploration of a new die set, but all those little pieces for the floral decoration were quite fiddly. So for today’s card I decided it might be a good idea to keep things much simpler. In the Enjoy The Journey 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack I’d noticed a beautiful starry sky scene and kept being drawn back to it. This would be the coordinating feature for my project, all I needed was the Hope & Prayer Stamp Set and some ribbon. STARRY ... VIEW POST
Happiness Is Purple
Our lovely weather didn’t hold and last week the garden was smothered by a thick blanket of snow. However like other snowstorms we’ve had this winter, subsequent sunny days have helped to melt some of it. Still I have a feeling it will be a while yet before the flowers begin to emerge. As a result I’m forced to create spring in my craft studio again. So for this week’s simple Sunday project I pulled out the Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper (DSP), along with my favourite purple ... VIEW POST
Delicate Layers
If you’ve been making cards for years like me you’ll know nothing is really new. While I do try different ideas and techniques many of the trends go in cycles. I’ve also found that, at least in my studio, I revisit the same card layouts. One that I don’t think I’ve used in a while invokes the power of three. Three matted layers, three colours, three embellishments, and today, even three words in the sympathy sentiment. It all started with the Delicate Desert 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper ... VIEW POST
Frosted Dots
The new Hello, Irresistible 6” x 6” Designer Series Paper (DSP) available from March 1st is simply... irresistible. Yesterday I used the paper as the main layer on my masculine / gender-neutral card. Today however I wanted a lighter and fresher feel to my project so I could show off some of the new Loose Frosted Dots. But the Hello, Irresistible DSP has that too so I thought, why not? Using the colours listed on the back of the DSP pack I grabbed some coordinating card and set to ... VIEW POST
Decorative Borders Again
With the weather heading back into the freezer here in Nova Scotia I’m keeping it spring-like in my craft studio. Like many papercrafters I’m drawn to floral images and have lots of stamps to choose from. Every time a new Stampin’ Up! catalogue comes out I tell myself I don’t need any more flower sets. And every time I see something that tempts me. The one that broke my resolve in the January to April 2023 Mini Catalogue was Decorative Borders. These gorgeous line art images have certainly not ...

Owls Leaving the Nest Soon
Well we’ve made it to the middle of the week. Even though it’s been a busy one so far, I’ve managed to keep on top of everything. Now with the end of the month quickly approaching I wanted to remind you that Sale-A-Bration ends soon. In fact, by this time next week it will all be over. Even though I didn’t love all the free items, there was enough to keep me happy. So today I wanted to give the Adorable Owls Stamp Set one last outing, before it’s gone for good. LAST OF 3 OWLS The ... VIEW POST
