Abundant Beauty

September 9, 2023 Leave a Comment

It’s 30 days until Thanksgiving in Canada and Mother Nature’s starting to put out the decorations. Even though it’s unseasonably warm here in Nova Scotia I can still see signs of autumn starting to appear. There’s lots of pumpkins and pumpkin spice treats in the stores, but for me the best part of autumn is the warm colours. So when I found a leafy stencil in the new Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks I couldn’t help myself. Out came the Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, Copper Clay and Berry Burst ink ... VIEW POST

Create A Blessings Jar For Thanksgiving

September 1, 2021 Leave a Comment

As Thanksgiving approaches (it's on October 11 here in Canada) thoughts turn to everything I'm grateful for. No matter what stresses I have, I can always find at least one reason to be thankful. So it seemed the perfect time to write them down on slips of paper. That way when I'm having a tough day I can look back at them to restore my perspective on life. With that in mind this morning I sat down and created this blessings jar. BELLY BAND The jar itself is just a standard 8oz ... VIEW POST

No Pumpkin Stamps No Problem

September 16, 2020 Leave a Comment

Life has been pretty hectic lately but with so many 'holidays' crammed into the last few months of the year that's not unexpected. I does remind me though that sometimes while you might want something hand-crafted, it has to be quick and easy. When I realised I don't have any pumpkin stamps that could have been an issue for my Thanksgiving preparations. But being the creative type I thought outside the stamp set and found some lovely pumpkins in the Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper (DSP) ... VIEW POST

Take one Mini Paper Pumpkin Box

August 17, 2020 Leave a Comment

It's tough to create with a headache but I managed it. I just wanted to create something quickly, and a Mini Paper Pumpkin Box was the first thing at hand. With a little ink, stamping and die-cutting I was able to create a pretty favour box for my Thanksgiving table. MINI PAPER PUMPKIN BOX The Mini Paper Pumpkin Boxes come flat but are all cut and scored. They have a food safe coating on the inside while the outside is plain white and ready for decorating. Today I used a quick ink ... VIEW POST

Ink In All The Right Places Today

August 5, 2020 Leave a Comment

When you blog every day with a new project design it can be challenging. Often I go to bed wondering what my next project will be and I wake up with an idea. In the event that that doesn't happen, usually a shower does the trick. Today was once of those days and the idea for a candle collar popped into my head. So with products from the new Gilded Autumn Suite and a couple of ink pads I set to work. CANDLE COLLAR I began with a pillar candle that is 2-3/4" across and 2-1/4" high (not ... VIEW POST

I Am Thankful For

October 14, 2019 2 Comments

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. My project today is a way to be reminded of all the things we are thankful for. TWO PAPER DESIGNS I began this bookmark with two different sheets from the Come To Gather 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. One design was a pretty maple leaf pattern and the other was a simple lined design. I began with the maple leaf piece and wiped the bottom of the strip with an Embossing Buddy to remove any oils and static. Then I found the (almost) perfect ... VIEW POST
