So after yesterday's gorgeous new Designer Series Paper, today I have a sneak peek of a new stamp set for you. After seeing the large bird image, Happy Holly-Days had to be on my wish list and I couldn't wait to ink it up. I actually have a lot of ideas for this set but today I wanted to keep things fairly simple. SWEET ROBIN I began my project with a 3-1/4" x 5-1/4" piece of Very Vanilla Card. I'd decided on neutral tones so chose Soft Suede ink for all my stamping. Taking the ... VIEW POST
Elegantly Drawn, Elegantly Said
Do you ever find yourself drawn to an image but then struggle to actually use it on a project? It's happened to me more than once. I had a horrible feeling that was going to be my fate with the Elegantly Said Stamp Set. So rather than stress, I just left the stamp set on my desk where I could see see it. After a few days working on other things ideas started to pop into my head. Maybe they won't all work out, but it's certainly not the creative block I was dreading. So here's my first ... VIEW POST
Hand-Penned Has Me Hooked
You know it's funny that like many papercrafters I thought I had enough floral stamp sets. Then I saw the Stampin' Up! 2021/2022 Annual Catalogue and realised another one or two couldn't hurt. Hand-Penned Petals made it to my first order and it hasn't disappointed. There's outline images if I feel like colouring, plus solid images to add artistic blocks of colour if I don't. The outlines also work well with no colour at all making for a very versatile stamp set. For today's project I ... VIEW POST
Coincidence? Anything Is Possible
My regular readers will know that I'm currently decluttering and reorganising my craft studio. It's not that it's a mess, I can't work in a mess, but rather that the flow is wrong. So I'm moving things around so that everything seems more natural. While I'm at it I may as well remove stuff that's been kept 'just in case' but in my heart I know I'll never use. Of course the fact that I'm creating space just when a new catalogue is coming out is pure coincidence... During a short break this ... VIEW POST
Positive Thoughts For Another Simple Sunday
Ooh I'm feeling a chill in the air that has no place in July. I've almost been tempted to put the heating on, but instead I'll grab a sweater and socks. On a positive note the damp ground means the mowing will have to wait. Instead, I get to spend those hours playing in my craft studio. I'm still decluttering and reorganising so there will be a little work going on. Creating pretty projects using some new products from Stampin' Up! will be my reward. Meanwhile for today's simple Sunday ... VIEW POST
Friends And Family Time On The Way
How's your day been so far? Mine's been fantastic. Yesterday I went for my second PCR test in Nova Scotia since returning from the UK. It was actually the fifth test I've taken in the past 18 days, but who's counting? Anyway, this morning at 7.10am AST the lab results came through showing I am negative for Covid 19. Not that I expected anything else, but you can never be too sure. Still it means that I can now confidently meet up with friends and family again and I can't wait. Well ... VIEW POST
