And just like that it’s Monday again. I had a wonderfully productive weekend rediscovering old stamp sets and dies as I continued to reorganise my craft studio. I may even have made a Christmas card or two. Today’s elegant project uses the Celebrate With Tags Stamp Set which is a bit of a misnomer as it includes sentiments for lots of occasions without an actual ‘tag’ design in sight. For my colours I chose Wild Wheat which takes on the hue of antique gold when paired alongside rich Pretty ... VIEW POST
Natural Tones
When the Stampin’ Up! 2023/2024 Annual Catalogue was launched it included a colour refresh. This is the process where they retire some of their core colours and introduce (or bring back) new ones. So as part of reorganising my craft studio I’ve been taking stock of the colours I have in cardstock, ink pads, markers etc. That’s when I noticed that I’ve only got four of the five sets of Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers. I’ll have to rectify that! Meanwhile here’s today’s project using ... VIEW POST
Fishing For Ideas
When Stampin’ Up! announced that selected packs of Designer Series Paper (DSP) would be on sale at 15% during June I was really excited. I definitely wanted Earthen Elegance and Let’s Go Fishing, and jumped at the chance to pay less for them. Sadly UPS decided to take the parcel on a magical mystery tour of Ontario and I eventually received it a week late. The first thing I made with the Let’s Go Fishing DSP was this bookmark, complete with a seasonal sentiment from the Brightest Glow Stamp ... VIEW POST
Another Zany Idea
For the third day in a row the morning has started with thick fog that seems to absorb every sound. Every sound apart of the call of the male pheasant standing in the middle of my front lawn that is! It also feels foggy inside my head and I fear I may be sickening for something. So perhaps I should stay in and relax like this llama from the Zany Zoo Stamp Set. Although joint issues mean I can’t knit anymore, I can still read and create my own bookmarks. ZANY LLAMA I began today's project ... VIEW POST
Another Construction
And just like that it’s time for another simple Sunday project. Looking back at the last few days I’ve realised there’s been an awful lot of blue. Even the flowery “thinking of you” card on Tuesday had a bright blue background. So today I’ve decided I need to spend some time in my craft studio using other colours. But before I get to that I wanted to show you another easy project using the Construction Zone Stamp Set. Today’s blue is Misty Moonlight but feel free to use something ... VIEW POST
Sun Rays
And just like that the weekend is over and I didn’t quite get to everything on my to do list. But I came very close, so I’ll take that as a win. The weather hasn’t changed much and it’s going to be a very wet week. That’s the perfect excuse for doing some more reorganising indoors. Of course I’ll still spend in my craft studio, it’s where I go to relax. Yesterday I decided to add a little sunshine to my day and created this project using the Rays of Light stamp. OFF-SET RAYS When I sat ... VIEW POST
