Hurricane Lee has begun to impact Nova Scotia, although it’s now been downgraded to a ‘post-tropical storm’. We’re still going to get strong winds, heavy rain and tidal surge, but over a much wider area. By 8.20 am over 90,000 properties were without power, and the situation will get worse before it gets better. So I need to get my post typed quickly, just in case. When I sat down to design this notecard project I couldn’t help but reach for the Playing In The Rain Stamp Set and Dies. CUTE ... VIEW POST
Joy Of Noel Discovery
Yesterday’s Stampin’ Up! Mini Catalogue launch was definitely a hit. So much so that a few things are already temporarily out of stock. The paper packs seem to be particularly popular, and with good reason, they’re gorgeous. If you haven’t yet placed an order don’t worry, more supplies are expected in the coming weeks. Meanwhile there’s lots of other pretty new things to keep you crafting. Today’s project uses the Joy Of Noel Stamp Set and coordinating Dies. However without a sentiment it could ... VIEW POST
Smiles & Sadness
Today I’m little sad as our granddaughter returns home to the UK after spending 3 weeks with us here in Nova Scotia. We’ve been shopping across the border in Maine, attended a powwow in Truro, and walked on the ocean floor at Wasson Bluff. But the highlight was most definitely whale watching in the Bay of Fundy. That eventful trip brought tears as car trouble nearly scuppered our plans, however the amazing kindness of people we met on Long Island saved the day and restored the smiles to our ... VIEW POST
Trucking Along
Did you know that Stampin’ Up! has an ‘Online Exclusives” range? These are products not found in the current catalogue(s) and well worth a look. As soon as I saw the Trucking Along Stamp Set and coordinating punch I fell in love with them. It appears I wasn’t alone as the punch very quickly sold out, and within days of restocking they sold out again! More are on the way, but in the meantime here’s a simple card I designed using just the stamp set and without a truck in sight. TRUCKING AND ... VIEW POST
Columns Of Daisies
I’ve just returned from a trip to Maine with my Granddaughter from the UK who’s spending three weeks with us in Canada. Sadly the weather there wasn’t brilliant, with one day completely washed out by torrential rain. Still, that gave us a great excuse to go shopping together instead. Our first stop was a huge bookstore in South Portland called Books-A-Million. We both had such fun and came out laden with new books. Now we’re back home I couldn’t resist creating this simple bookmark using the ... VIEW POST
Another Bird’s Eye View
I’ve just returned from spending time with my daughter and her family in the UK. The twins are now almost 2-1/2 years old and so different from when they visited us in Canada last October. Lots of new memories were made and I’m excited that my eldest granddaughter flew back with me. She’ll be here for 3 weeks and we have lots planned. Like me she loves to read so I made this Harry Potter themed bookmark for her using the Bird’s Eye View Stamp Set and Very Best Trio Punch. EARTHEN ... VIEW POST
