I fell in love with the Snailed It Stamp Set the minute I saw it in the Stampin' Up! January to June Mini Catalogue. There's something very expressive in the eyes, right down to the eyelashes on one image! The images can be left as they are or coloured in, which makes them extra versatile. What's also great about this stamp set is that there's coordinating Snail Dies which cut out the snails, the toadstools and more. Plus there's the Snail Mail 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper (DSP) which ... VIEW POST
Wonderful Way To Stay On Track
As I get older I know that my memory is not as good as it used to be. So I definitely rely on lists to keep track of important things I need to do. I keep a notebook and pen in my handbag for when I'm out, and there's one on the fridge too. I've even trained hubby to add to the shopping list as soon as he realises we need something!

Happy Making Love Hearts Treats
It's February, and that means you'll be seeing hearts everywhere as we head towards Valentine's Day. The shops are full of heart-shaped products, and the candy aisles have taken on a very red hue. One of the candies I picked up was a bag full of rolls of Love Hearts candies. These were quite inexpensive and I thought would make great treats or favours. So this morning I sat down to turn these uninspiring Love Hearts packs into something a little more giftable. HEARTS WRAP I began by ... VIEW POST
Cardmaking Fun With The Snail Man
Moving on from yesterday's Suit & Tie Dies sneak peek, today I have a cute card for you. This one is quite unique in that I used no ink or stamps at all to create it. Instead the sentiment and images all come from the adorable Snail Mail 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. SNIP SNIP SNIP I began by selecting a sheet of DSP with a variety of large snail images. Then using Paper Snips I carefully cut around the snail man image. Next, from another sheet in the pack I used ... VIEW POST
