Hello crafty friends. Well, after a little detour over Christmas I’m back into my regular Sunday dip into back issues of Clarity’s Craft Club. Today it’s the ‘leafy stag’ die from October 2020. I started with the background and brayered ‘broken china’ & ‘chipped sapphire’ Distress Oxides onto the large ‘dots and spots’ grunge background… Read More Clarity Craft Club lookback – leafy stag die
Welcome to my crafty blog. It felt a bit strange today not to be working back through Clarity Craft Club stamps – instead I’ve leapt forwards to a brand new set from Stampin’ Up! that you can get through the current Saleabration that’s just launched (it’s available free when you spend £45). Lots of blog… Read More adorable owls
Hello there and welcome to the last of my 12 Days of Clarity challenge to close the 12 days of Christmas. The ‘Happy New Year’ stamps from December’s Craft Club arrived just before Christmas and I’ve only just got round to playing with them.

Welcome to Day 11 of my 12 Days of Clarity challenge – we’re nearly there! November’s Craft Club stamp was actually an autumn wreath, but I’ve turned it into a Christmas card just by using different colours. I started by stamping the wreath with WOW clear ink, then heat embossed it with superfine gold metallic… Read More 12 Days of Clarity 2022 – wreath
Hello crafty friends. We’re now at day 10 of my 12 Days of Clarity challenge, so today it’s the ‘peace on earth’ stamp from October’s Craft Club.

Well here we are on day 9 of my 12 Days of Clarity, so today it’s the turn of the pocket watch stamp from September’s Craft Club to take centre stage.

Welcome to my crafty blog and day 8 of my 12 Days of Clarity challenge, which brings us to the ‘to have and hold’ stamp set from August’s Craft Club. I love this cake stamp – it would work really well for birthdays but I’ve stuck with a wedding theme for today’s card. I started,… Read More 12 Days of Clarity 2022 – to have and hold
Here’s my second post of 2023 already! It’s day 7 of my 12 Days of Clarity and today the ‘wheelbarrow’ stamp from July’s Craft Club comes out to play. I started with a piece of card from my stash that I’d used to mop up ink from my craft mat (I’ve got a lot of… Read More 12 Days of Clarity 2022 – wheelbarrow
Happy New Year, crafty friends! We’re starting 2023 with a new challenge over at Love to Craft and as always the theme is ‘anything goes’. A friend asked me to make a birthday card for her daughter-in-law and I built the design around Clarity’s ‘happy birthday floral frame’ die. I started by cutting the die… Read More floral frame birthday
Hello crafty friends – here we are reaching the mid-point of my 12 Days of Clarity with the ‘thinking of you panels’ stamps from June’s Craft Club.
