I'm having altogether too much fun combining elements from different stamp sets right now. Just when I think I've exhausted my imagination something else comes along to excite me. This time it was the unlikely pairing of the Back On Your Feet Stamp Set and the multi-sentiment Many Messages Stamp. I always think of Back On Your Feet as a stamp set for get well projects but it doesn't have to be that limited. It was my determination to show how you can use the Many Messages Stamp Set without ... VIEW POST
Gifts Galore With An Added Twist
This month Paper Pumpkin subscribers were treated to a great kit called Gifts Galore. It contained an exclusive stamp set, ink spot and enough supplies to make 9 treat packages. What was unusual about this kit though was the extra large size of the three different designs. The Christmas tree version was the smallest at 5" x 6-1/16". Then the pile of gifts came in at 4-9/16" x 6-3/8", and finally the snowman was 4-1/2" x 6-7/16". While these large images were the most obvious part of the ... VIEW POST
Harvest Dies Make The Cut
The wind's picking up now and I think we're ready for the storm. Thankfully I was able to get my blog post completed too. My project is a pretty notebook decorated on the front with a watercoloured flower created using the Harvest Dies. I'm pleased to be able to confirm that the dies and coordinating Nature's Harvest Stamp Set both made the cut. This means that they'll continue to be available after the July to December 2021 Mini Catalogue ends on January 3rd. What's even better is that ... VIEW POST
Create A Hat For Any Occasion
Masculine cards are often perceived by many crafters as difficult to make. With feminine cards, if all else fails, add flowers and bows. For the men, not so simple (although lots of men like flowers!). Anyway, when Stampin' Up! brought out the Hats Off Stamp Set and coordinating Hat Builder Dies I could see an immediate need. Oddly enough my first hat card was a feminine one, just to prove a point. But when it came to my recent 24 cards in 24 hours marathon, I couldn't resist going in a ... VIEW POST

Nature’s Harvest Coneflowers Again
Now autumn has definitely arrived in Nova Scotia and I'm enjoying watching the amazing transformation in the garden. It's the same when I travel around the area where the farmers get on with their harvest and begin to prepare for winter. So it's hardly surprising that once again I was drawn to autumn colours and the Nature's Harvest Stamp Set. Today my colour palette was all about warm red and orange. ACCIDENTAL COLOURS It may not be obvious from the main photo, but this colour scheme ... VIEW POST
