Create this simple "sending love your way" card using the Full of Love Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! #simplestamping #papercraftwithme

I Love Simple Cards

January 22, 2023 Leave a Comment

One of the things I love about papercrafting is the way I’m constantly inspired to create something new. While it’s definitely fun to use dies, punches, embossing folders and other tools, they aren’t essential. In fact I enjoy going back to basics to create projects that need no special tools or techniques. That’s why I created Simple Sunday, it’s one day that’s always reserved for a simple project that anyone can do. Today’s card was made at the end of last year and I’m delighted with how it ...

IDEAS Blog Hop: Celebrating Family

September 12, 2022 6 Comments

It’s time for another IDEAS blog hop where this month our theme is “family celebrations”. There are so many to choose it was hard to pick just one. So in the end I created an anniversary card for my daughter and son-in-law, and a scrapbook page celebrating my twin granddaughters’ first birthday. Instructions for these projects are included in this month’s IDEAS tutorial bundle. Of course I couldn’t leave out my older granddaughter, so for her I created a pretty bookmark. All three projects ... VIEW POST

Candle Celebrations

August 22, 2022 Leave a Comment

I’m not sure how it can be Monday already, but apparently it is. They say time flies when you’re having fun, and I was definitely enjoying myself in the craft studio this weekend. Exploring new stamp sets and dies, and rediscovering old ones is my favourite way to relax. Yesterday I went back to the new Celebrations Tag Dies. My intention was to test out the second style of tag this set creates. In fact I was having so much fun I didn’t even think to grab a stamp set! TAKE 3 CELEBRATIONS ... VIEW POST

Summer Meadow

August 4, 2022 Leave a Comment

It’s going to be another one of those hot and humid days. With a heat warning in place I’ve just closed up all the windows and drawn the curtains. That should keep the house relatively cool as the temperature begins to climb. Later, once it starts to cool again and the onshore breeze picks up, I’ll open up the house again. In the meantime I shall be mostly crafting. Today’s project was inspired by the pretty butterflies I saw while mowing a path through our flower meadow at the ... VIEW POST

Create this cute "you gnome me so well" card using the Kindest Gnomes Stamp Set and Gnomes Dies from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Gnomes Got Me Thinking

July 14, 2022 Leave a Comment

You know it’s really funny the things I think about when I’m crafting. Take this morning for instance. I decided I wanted to use the new Kindest Gnomes Stamp Set that I recently ordered from the July to December Mini Catalogue. I was attracted to this stamp set as soon as I saw it, and the fact that it had coordinating dies didn’t hurt either. But as I reached for the stamps I wondered about whether there were girl gnomes as well as boy gnomes. And suddenly there she was... KINDEST ... VIEW POST

Create this fun snorkeling hippo card using the FREE Hippest Hippo Stamp Set and Hippo Dies from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Hippo Fun Time

July 8, 2022 Leave a Comment

Oh my goodness have you seen the Hippo Dies that you can get for free right now with a $60 order? I got mine at the same time as the coordinating Hippest Hippos Stamp Set (another of the free choices with a $60 order). Obviously I planned to use them together, well it made sense really, but after making today’s card I may have to change that plan. You see while the set cuts out the three hippo images, there’s another 16 dies to use in so many other ways. LAYERING DIORAMA As soon as I saw ... VIEW POST
