Abigail Rose Inspired

June 13, 2022 Leave a Comment

It’s no secret that I love colouring. Whether using markers, pencils or ink, I find colouring very relaxing. Of course I can’t draw to save my life which is why stamping is my passion. The stamp designer does the drawing and I just add the colour. So you can imagine my delight when I realised the Abigail Rose 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper (DSP) included sheets designed for that very reason. So I pulled out my Watercolor Pencils and set to work. Well it would be rude not to... ABIGAIL ROSE ... VIEW POST

Daffodil Project For St David’s Day

March 1, 2022 Leave a Comment

Well my day isn't going to plan. I had a very manageable to do list of relatively quick jobs but haven't ticked off much. Now an extra unexpected and more important issue has come up and my day looks very different. So while I get on with that I hope you enjoy the project I created to mark St. David's Day. It's a pretty thank you card using the Daffodil Daydream Stamp Set and coordinating Daffodil Dies from Stampin' Up!  There’s also a quick tip for using watercolour pencils ... VIEW POST

Peony Bloom Held A Surprise

February 23, 2022 Leave a Comment

Yesterday Stampin’ Up! confirmed the timeline for the transition from the current Annual Catalogue to the new one.  We already knew that the current catalogue ends on May 2nd, but now we also know the Retiring List will be revealed on March 23rd.  That’s four weeks from today!  The 2020-2022 In Colors are definitely going, along with most (if not all the patterned paper).  Various stamp sets, dies, punches and embellishments will go too but they’re harder to predict.  ...

Pets Project By Special Request

February 8, 2022 Leave a Comment

Do you have pets?  I’m decidedly a ‘cat person’.  I just love that they won’t put up with stuff the way dogs seem to do.  A while ago a friend who was definitely a 'dog person' was convinced by her daughter to get a cat.  Since its arrival this cute little kitten has won hearts and minds.  So much so that the youngest daughter asked if I could make her a bookmark with a cat.  So yesterday I pulled out the Pampered Pets Stamp Set and happily got to work. PET ... VIEW POST

Another Special Moments Idea

February 4, 2022 Leave a Comment

We all have a friend who’s completely daft.  Sometimes more than one.  They’re the one who keeps you laughing with their ideas and antics.  Who pull silly faces and say silly things, and without whom life would be very boring indeed.  So when I was asked to create a cover for a pocket photo album this was my brief.  I found the perfect sentiment in the free Sale-A-Bration stamp set called Special Moments and, with the addition of an image from Senior Years, this is what ...

Peekaboo Farm Animals at Christmas?

December 24, 2021 Leave a Comment

A few weeks ago I was challenged to create a project using layout sketch as my inspiration. This was based on the card in the bottom right-hand corner on page 88 of the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue. The original card uses products from the very Christmassy Tidings of Christmas suite so I was determined to make a non-Christmas card. With that in mind I selected the Peekaboo Farm Stamp Set and set to work. It's only now, weeks later, that I'm struck by a certain irony. What could be more ... VIEW POST
