Whatever else I have to do, I still manage to have a daily chat with my daughter and granddaughter in the UK. Although she's only 10 Alyssa loves papercrafting and takes a keen interest in my creations. Yesterday we were taking about the recent freezing rain, and the snow that's forecast for today. Then Alyssa suggested that I make a card with "It's snow cold" as a sentiment. Sadly I don't have that in my stash, but I did find "Thank you snow much". So with that in mind I created this ...

Wrapping Up For Another Year
I was in Walmart yesterday and I overheard someone saying that they couldn't find any wrapping paper. Then later in the day I was reading something about commercial wrapping paper not being recyclable due to the amount of dye used. So as I sat down to create today's project I decided to create my own wrapping paper. WRAPPING PAPER Some time ago I bought a box of 100 sheets of 24" x 30" white newsprint wrapping paper from U-Haul. It's meant to be used when packing up belongings for ... VIEW POST
Another Stella Snowman Card
Today's project kind of just happened. Quite simply it started after a Saran Wrap background popped into my head. Then I thought 'winter' and chose a pale blue and grey colour scheme. Winter of course meant snow, and I opted for snowmen rather than snowflakes. With shimmer and shine provided by a retiring Glimmer Paper and a Wink of Stella Glitter Brush, all I had to do was put it all together. CUSTOM BACKGROUND I began my project with the custom Saran Wrap background on a 3-3/4" x ... VIEW POST
Whisper White Retirement Surprise
A couple of days ago Stampin' Up! Demonstrators were surprised by the sudden announcement that Whisper White Card and associated products were retiring. Sadly the paper mill that made Whisper White has become a victim of the COVID pandemic and has permanently closed. Since being notified, Stampin' Up! has been working to source alternative products and these will start to appear in the near future. There are some slight differences between the retiring Whisper White and the new Basic White ... VIEW POST
Winter Snow Won’t Last For Long
Two weeks today will be Christmas Eve and a week later the last day of 2020. So I suppose I shouldn't be too upset that winter appears to have arrived. As I sat down to make today's project the snow was gently falling outside. Not a lot, but enough to leave a dusting on the ground. I think it's due to warm up a little so it's unlikely to stay for long. Later in the week? well that might be a whole different ballgame. With the snow outside I decided today's project should be a Christmas ... VIEW POST
Gleaming Ornaments Using Glimmer Paper
Yesterday I went through my craft studio marking the products from the August to December Mini Catalogue that are retiring. While I'm always sad to see things go, I know that it makes way for new goodies. My challenge over the coming weeks is to remind you of some of the things you might want to get while they're still available. Today I've managed to combine four retiring products on one project. These are the Feels Like Frost 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper (DSP) and Balmy Blue Glimmer ... VIEW POST
