Happy Labour Day! I had a bit of a lie-in this morning but I wasn't idle. I was actually thinking about what I should make for today's blog. I'd decided that it's been too long since I took part in a design challenge and so my project was inspired by the Just Add Ink Colour Challenge #570. The colours I had to use were Night of Navy, Coastal Cabana and White. I could also add black, vanilla or metallics. The blue combination made me think of sailing, and I already had half an idea in my ... VIEW POST
Elegantly Said Does It Once Again
When I bought the Elegantly Said Stamp Set it was definitely because of the sentiments. Not only did I like the words but the combination of scripts really stood out. I was also drawn to the large triangular-shaped decorative image and have had great fun trying out new ideas. Today's project is the first in a set of three, a 'clean and simple' card. ELEGANTLY CREATED My project began as I was experimenting with that large image from the Elegantly Said Stamp Set. I wanted to find ... VIEW POST
Angels – Not Just For Christmas
We've come to the end of the month but not the end of my Stampin' Up! Mini Catalogue sneak peeks. There's a few more days to wait until the Mini Catalogue goes live on August 3rd, but still lots more to see. Today I want to introduce you to the new Angels Of Peace Stamp Set. TALL ANGEL As soon as I saw the tall angel in the Angels Of Peace Stamp Set I knew it would look great on a bookmark. I have a few different ideas for this but I wanted to start with a simple but stunning idea ... VIEW POST
Way To Goat Still Has A Way To Go
I'm always surprised when I see a Stampin' Up! Retiring List. Mostly because something is being retired that I was certain was safe. Today however I wanted to use the Way To Goat Stamp Set simply because it's not retiring. I must admit that I never expected it to be carried over into the 2021/2022 Annual Catalogue, but I'm certainly not disappointed. WAY TO GOAT My project actually began as a simple relaxation exercise. I find colouring stamped images really calming especially when ... VIEW POST
Improvising With Forever Flourishing Dies
Well that was an interesting 24 hours. This time yesterday it had started snowing and I could barely see the end of the driveway through the storm. By 2.30pm the deck and steps we impassable and it was at least 6" deep outside the garage. So out came the snowblower and we spent an hour restoring access. Then in the evening and overnight rain was forecast, in fact a lot of rain. So now almost all the snow has gone and we're enjoying sunshine and blue sky. That makes me much happier and I ...

Hey Chick Rerun For Groundhog Day
Have you seen the movie Groundhog Day? It's the tale of a weatherman who gets to relive February 2nd (Groundhog Day) over and over again. Well today is Groundhog Day and we have a big winter storm coming through just like in the movie. So when thinking about today's project I decided to remake an old one. Not just any project mind you, one from almost 4 years ago when the stamp set Hey, Chick! was originally released. My old Stampin' Up! blog is no longer active so I've also decided to ... VIEW POST
