How is it Monday again? It feels like there's altogether too many Mondays in a week. Still today is a better Monday than most as it's also Chocolate Cupcake Day. Yep apparently that's a thing, and who am I to argue? Now all I need to do is find a chocolate cupcake. I'm not much of a baker, unlike my daughter and especially my son-in-law, but I can stamp. So here's my contribution to this special day... CHOCOLATE CUPCAKE & FROSTING I've been having a lot of fun with the Sweets ... VIEW POST
Delivering Another Simple Card Idea
When I made today's project using the Delivering Cheer Stamp Set I thought I'd come up with a cute Christmas card. But several days later as I looked at the image of the lady carrying a huge pile of gifts I had another idea. The pile of gifts could actually be for any occasion. With a simple change of sentiment you could have a card for a birthday, baby shower, wedding, anything. So now I've added that to my design ideas list for a future blog post. But first, here's my original Christmas ... VIEW POST
Peaceful Deer Isn’t All Animals
Just recently I received an order containing the Peaceful Deer Stamp Set and coordinating Deer Builder Punch. By adding some adhesive to my order I'd bumped up the total, and earned a free product from the Sale-A-Bration Brochure. It made sense to choose the Peaceful Prints 12" x 12" Designer Series paper (DSP) pack as it coordinates with the stamp set. Plus it was free and who wouldn't want free papercrafting stuff? Still, when I got the stamp set it wasn't the deer that excited me, it ... 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
Gilded Leafing – A Successful First Attempt
When it comes to 'new' products and techniques I'm often late to the party. It's not that I'm afraid to try new things, but rather that I'm not one to jump straight in. So it took me a little while to decide to get the Gilded Leafing, and a while longer to actually use it. Gilded leafing comes in a large tub that is full to the brim with the most delicate gold flakes. Using it is essentially quite simple you just attach it to a project with some form of glue. I've seen various technique ... VIEW POST
Elegantly Said Does It Once Again
When I bought the Elegantly Said Stamp Set it was definitely because of the sentiments. Not only did I like the words but the combination of scripts really stood out. I was also drawn to the large triangular-shaped decorative image and have had great fun trying out new ideas. Today's project is the first in a set of three, a 'clean and simple' card. ELEGANTLY CREATED My project began as I was experimenting with that large image from the Elegantly Said Stamp Set. I wanted to find ... VIEW POST
