I've always loved the Treasures Of Life Stamp Set. It called to me as a grandparent, and even more so as I have two new twin granddaughters. I say new, they're already seven weeks old, but despite being born more than 5 weeks early they avoided special care and are thriving. I've been very lucky and managed to travel to the UK, and am very grateful I can spend time with the family. So the "and the love only grows" sentiment from the Treasures of Life Stamp Set on today's project really ... VIEW POST
Touched My Heart Will Retire Soon
Among all the uncertainty over the forthcoming Retiring List one thing we can be sure of, all Host stamp sets will retire. This is because these exclusive sets are only available to purchase using 'Stampin' Rewards' earned for hosting a qualifying party or submitting a qualifying order. They are always retired at the end of the catalogue in which they appear and replaced with all new stamp sets. They're right at the back of the catalogues and easily missed which is a shame. So today's ... VIEW POST
Way To Goat With The Scraps
Today was another one of those morning were I had just a vague idea of what I wanted to make. Quite simply I wanted a birthday gift tag using an older, but still available stamp set. Recently I've been having fun with Darling Donkeys, Hey Chick and Hey Birthday Chick, so another animal set appealed. I reached for Way To Goat, and with a surprising variety of scraps ended up with this fun tag. SO MANY SCRAPS After choosing my image from the Way To Goat Stamp Set I began looking for ... VIEW POST
Winter Snow Won’t Last For Long
Two weeks today will be Christmas Eve and a week later the last day of 2020. So I suppose I shouldn't be too upset that winter appears to have arrived. As I sat down to make today's project the snow was gently falling outside. Not a lot, but enough to leave a dusting on the ground. I think it's due to warm up a little so it's unlikely to stay for long. Later in the week? well that might be a whole different ballgame. With the snow outside I decided today's project should be a Christmas ... VIEW POST
Window Sheet For A Giftcard Holder
Sometimes I find a really pretty giftcard and it seems a shame to hide it away. So for today's project I decided to let the giftcard be the centre of attention. With the help of some Window Sheet, it really can become the focal point of a card. WINDOW AND FRAME I started this project with a basic Whisper White Note Card & Envelope. My plan was simple, cut a window in the front of the card to allow the giftcard to show through. After folding the note card along the pre-scored ... VIEW POST
Tis the season for mistakes
Ask any experienced papercrafter whether they make mistakes and if they're honest they'll confirm they do. That includes me. My most common issue is rushing when I'm cutting and ending up with a piece that's too small. Why is it that the wrongly cut piece is never too big?? I find that the busier I get, the more distracted I become, and that's when it happens. Today is a case in point. So much on my to do list preparing for a new season and I make one of the most basic errors. I'll tell ... VIEW POST
