Well once again we're in the middle of a storm, all wind and rain this time, but still... What's more, looking at the forecast there's not going to be much of a respite. Right now we have two more systems heading our way, and these may bring snow. What I would give for a few sunny days. In fact right now I'd settle for just one golden afternoon. I suppose today's project came out of that wish for nicer weather when I can sit on the deck and appreciate our lovely rural surroundings. The ... VIEW POST
Adapted Black Magic Technique
My regular blog readers will probably know that I love playing with my Stampin' Blends alcohol markers. I'm not an artist by any means, but I've found them easy to use and achieve nice results.

Fighting Butterflies
I'm having one of those days and it's only just past 8am. I was trying to decide what to make and had in mind a feminine gift tag.

Hello Cupcake
I'm still working my way through new products from the Stampin' Up! 2019 Occasions Catalogue and Sale-A-Bration Brochure. Today I picked up the free Hello Cupcake Stamp Set and paired it with the Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies.

Then on some more Very Vanilla Card I stamped the cupcake base with Rich Razzleberry ink, after first stamping off onto scrap paper. The next image ... VIEW POST
