Hello there! I’d planned to post this card yesterday, but my internet at home has gone down so it’s had to wait until I was somewhere with a wifi connection! First world problem…! It’s another generic one with more butterflies, this time inspired by the colours at TGIF challenges with the themes of ‘tropical’ from… Read More tropical butterflies
Hello crafty friends. I’m back with another generic card today, this time using one of the Cherry Green ‘butterflies & moths’ from Claritystamp. I’ve taken the sketch from Atlantic Hearts and teamed it with the colours from CAS Colours & Sketches and the ‘butterfly’ theme from Less is More So I started with a piece… Read More butterfly note
Hello crafty friends. Well I’m back after a fab few days away with friends at the New Wine Christian conference – we weren’t anywhere near the sea, so I thought I’d compensate with this card inspired by the theme at AAA Cards which also picks up the left hand diagonal of yellow, blue & water… Read More in the sea
Hello crafty friends. It’s time for a new letter over at the Alphabet Challenge – we’re now on to I and Helen has chosen ‘interests’ (hobbies, etc) as the theme for the next fortnight. My son wanted a birthday card for his father, who is a very keen cricketer, so I thought that fitted the… Read More I for interests

Welcome to my crafty blog, and a bit of a two-for-one today. I’ve taken the same design and made it in two colourways, which is a great way of getting extra mileage out of stamp sets. I’ve used the ‘wonderful world’ stamp set, which is part of Stampin’ Up!’s current Saleabration offer. I started with… Read More one design, two cards
Hello crafty friends. Today’s card is a last minute offering for Color Throwdown – I thought their colours would be perfect for a countryside scene using one of Claritystamp’s ‘room with a view’ aperture dies. This one is set 1 ‘sunshine’. The first step was to cut the dei into the forn of a 6×6… Read More sunny day
Heoo there! Well, it’s Sunday again so back into Claritystamp’s Craft Club, this time to May 2021 and the ‘wicker texture’ abstract stamp. This is such a great background and I thought it would work for the current layout at Freshly Made Sketches, together with the colours from Just Add Ink I started by cutting… Read More Claritystamp craft club lookback – wicker texture
Hello crafty friends. I’m sharing some delicious cocktails today that have headed off to my niece for her birthday, using Stampin’ Up!’s ‘nothing’s better than…’ set. I thought the colours from CAS Colours & Sketches were just right for this – these two could be a mint julep and strawberry daiquiri, don’t you think? I… Read More cocktails day
