I’ve never yet met a crafter who didn’t love getting free products. I think that’s why Stampin’ Up!’s Sale-A-Bration promotions are so popular. Twice a year we get the chance to choose some exclusive products simply for placing an order we were probably going to send in anyway. Something I always look forward to seeing is the free paper choices. This time, despite not being excited by the coordinating stamp set and dies in the Mini Catalogue, I couldn’t resist selecting the Rings of Love paper ... VIEW POST
Bokeh Lights Effect
On Monday I took part in a “Holidays” blog hop with the IDEAS team. As part of that I contributed designs for a Christmas card and gift box for the 70 page Tutorial PDF bundle. These projects won’t be available anywhere else and therefore for my blog followers I created a coordinating gift tag. One section of that was a bokeh background layer using the Lights Aglow 6” x 6” Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. So for today’s project I wanted to give you a closer look at this effect. Bokeh is a ... VIEW POST
IDEAS Blog Hop: Very Best Occasions
It’s time for another IDEAS blog hop where this month our theme is “holidays”. While we've just celebrated Canada Day here, I wanted to look towards the end of the year. Christmas is definitely my favourite holiday for crafting projects, and I suspect for many others too. So for my Tutorial Bundle projects I decided to use my go to paper right now, Lights Aglow and the Very Best Occasions Bundle. Meanwhile for my blog followers I used these products to create a striking “love you mean it” gift ... VIEW POST
Hope In All Things
Do you have a familiar routine when you get new craft toys? I didn’t think I did but perhaps I’m wrong. You see yesterday I received delivery from Stampin’ Up! and among my customers’ orders was a little treat for me, the new Hope & Prayer Stamp Set. After checking the order, I was free to play, and of course I automatically reached for my new set. Without even thinking I picked up some card I’d already cut to 2” x 5-1/2” and in minutes my stamp set was christened. My first project with ... VIEW POST
Sneak Peek No More!
Happy Canada Day everyone! While enjoying blueberry pancakes and maple syrup for breakfast I’ve been updating my website with some new links. First up is a link to the new Stampin’ Up!

But first here’s a quick summary of all ... VIEW POST
A Paper Pumpkin Thing: Pick Of The Crop
It's the last Thursday of the month and time for another A Paper Pumpkin Thing blog hop. This month we're exploring the Pick of the Crop card kit. I must be honest and say that I'm not a huge fan of fruit and vegetable-themed stamp sets but this kit surprised me. Once I actually began playing with it I just couldn't stop. When I opened up the kit I really couldn't see myself making lots of cards. Instead I immediately thought of all the other food-related projects that I could ... VIEW POST
