One Final Wiggle Worm Project

May 6, 2020 2 Comments

Well yesterday didn't go according to plan. First I had internet issues again in the morning that meant my blog was delayed. Then I got a call asking me if I could take an extra shift at the pharmacy. I know they wouldn't call unless they really needed me so I abandoned my to do list and worked a late shift. The knock on from that was I finally got to bed late last night, and then our cat Houdini decided I needed a lie-in this morning. I've been playing catch up ever since. Still, ... VIEW POST

Playing With The First Bugs Of The Year

April 7, 2020 Leave a Comment

The sun is shining and the garden is full of birds. It might still be just above freezing but there's something there that's attracting them. I suspect that the bugs are starting to be more active in the lawn and I have no issues with the birds dealing with them for me. I love to see the garden coming back to life and little things like this are all part of the cycle. It reminded me of some things I haven't used in ages and I thought I should remedy that. So out came the Wiggle Worm Stamp ... VIEW POST

Attempting Another Colour Challenge

October 3, 2019 2 Comments

Today I decided I needed to use up some of my part finished and test pieces on my desk. At the same time I thought it would be fun to attempt another colour challenge. I looked through my emails and there was this week's challenge from the Global Design Project team. So with that as my starting point I set to work. TEST PIECE This project began with the background which was actually a test piece I had created when I first received the Delicata Celestial Copper ink pad. All I did was ... VIEW POST

Ladybirds or Ladybugs?

July 26, 2019 2 Comments

Whether you call them ladybirds or ladybugs, I love to see these brightly coloured beetles in my garden. Given that one ladybird can eat 5,000 aphids in its lifetime, they're very welcome in my vegetable garden. So when I saw the Wiggle Worm Stamp set I knew I'd have to make one of the bugs into a ladybird, and today was that day. LADYBIRDS FIRST I began with the more rounded smiling beetle and stamped her twice using Tuxedo Black ink, once on Poppy Parade Card and once on Very ... VIEW POST

Amazing word play

July 2, 2019 Leave a Comment

A little while ago I made a children's birthday card using the Wiggle Worm Stamp Set and coordinating Wiggly Bugs Dies. It's a really fun stamp set with lots of cute bugs and flies, and at first glance definitely designed for children, While I was working though, I wondered if I could make a more grown up project without bringing in any other sets. As I began to create, my design choice was definitely influenced by the word play in the sentiment. ONE DRESSED UP FLY I began the project ... VIEW POST

Bugs I Like In My Studio

June 21, 2019 Leave a Comment

Summer weather always brings out the bugs and while I tolerate them outside, inside is a different matter. Having lived in Canada for almost 9 years now I couldn't imagine not having screens on my windows as is the case in the UK. That said, I do love the new Wiggly Worm Stamp Set and coordinating Wiggle Bugs Dies from Stampin' Up! They're cute and there's absolutely no danger of bites or rashes. WIGGLY WORM As you might expect, there is a worm image in the stamp set, but for this ... VIEW POST
