Today’s project is a quick sneak peek of a new stamp set and dies being released by Stampin’ Up! on Tuesday (November 7th). They’re called Fluffiest Friends and I just couldn’t resist these cute images. The stamp set includes a rabbit, bird, bear and hamster. Plus I don’t think the Canadians among you will be able to resist that sweet beaver. But for my first project using this set I reached for the fat cat and a couple of the small ‘scene-builder’ stamps. I simply love how it turned ... VIEW POST
Winter Meadow
When you’re creating are you ever influenced by people you know? I definitely am. In fact yesterday’s beetle convertible birthday card attracted the attention of the person who inspired it. She loved it too, which was a relief! Today’s sneak peek project was inspired by the Stampin’ Up! artist who painted the designs for the Christmas Meadow 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper (DSP). One sheet in particular called to me, and I intend to make the most of every scrap of the gorgeous ethereal deer ... VIEW POST
Curved Occasions
How are you enjoying my September to December 2023 Mini Catalogue sneak peeks so far? I must say I’m having a lot of fun playing with the new products I received in my pre-order. Today’s project is a gender-neutral birthday card using the new Curved Occasions Stamp Set and coordinating Curved Label Punch. As soon as I saw this in the catalogue I was immediately drawn to the Beetle convertible image. My friend Jeannette has one of these cars in pale blue and so that definitely influenced my ...

All About Autumn
Yesterday I promised you an autumn-themed sneak peek. There’s lots of choices in the September to December 2023 Mini Catalogue but this product is definitely my favourite. The All About Autumn 6” x 6” Specialty Designer Series Paper was the very first thing I put on my Demonstrator pre-order. Warm autumn colours always draw me in, and in combination with copper foil it’s simply gorgeous. Of course today’s Sunday and that means my project is very simple. No need for expensive tools or complicated ... VIEW POST
Beary Simple Card
It’s a long weekend here in Nova Scotia and I’m by myself the entire time. Please don’t feel sorry for me as it means I can spend the whole three days in my craft studio! I may interrupt my crafting to feed my black cat Houdini and myself, but apart from that I’ll not leave my desk. But before I settle in I have another September to December 2023 Mini Catalogue sneak peek for you. This simple card uses the new Beary Christmas 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper (DSP). To start I used my Paper ... VIEW POST
Rustic Crate Realisation
I started my sneak peeks on Wednesday with a project using the Rustic Crate Stamp Set. I mentioned at the time that there were coordinating dies and I used these and the stamp set to create today’s project. I’ll be honest and say that like many of you I assumed that the dies would include the ability to make a crate. Well they do, sort of. You see the two main dies are designed to fit together to create a little pocket that gives the illusion of a 3D crate. PRETTY POINSETTTIAS If you've ... VIEW POST
