Welcome to my crafty blog and another daffodil themed card thanks to Stampin’ Up!’s ‘daffodil daydream’ set. I’ve used the new sketch from CAS Colours and Sketches, with the ‘saleabration’ theme from TGIF challenges. For the uninitiated, Stampin’ Up!’s ‘saleabration’ takes place when they launch a new min catalogue – you can get free products… Read More daffodil window
Welcome to my crafty blog and another card for Mother’s Day – I’m on a bit of a roll now! I did an online class at the weekend with Hazel Eaton using the ‘fern foliage’ die set and co-ordinating stamps that she designed for Julie Hickey, and today’s card uses that set again (I really… Read More wonderful mum
Welcome to my crafty blog and a clean and simple birthday card. I haven’t used the ‘birthday dangles’ set from Claritystamp for some time, so thought it deserved an outing! It’s such a great image that it really stands on it’s own without a lot of other embellishment. I thought it would work perfectly for… Read More birthday!
Welcome to my crafty blog and my regular Sunday dip back into Claritystamp’s craft club. By coincidence, it’s another cupcake (after the card I made earlier this week) and this time I’ve gone for chocolate and cherry flavour (one of my favourite combinations!) thanks to the colour palette at CAS Colours and Sketches. I’ve paired… Read More Claritystamp craft club lookback – cupcake #142
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’m back with another card using Stampin’ Up!’s ‘blossoms in bloom’ – haven’t quite brought myself to put them away yet.

I’m doing a two-part online class with Julie & Hazel Eaton this week, so looking forward to more inspiration, but decided to have another try out in the meantime. I thought this set would… Read More birthday stars
Welcome to my crafty bog and another card using Stampin’ Up!’s ‘plentiful plants’ set. I feel like I’ve really got my eye in with these stamps & dies now, so keep going back to them. I thought they’d work really well with the colours from Inspire.Create and I’ve added in the ‘make your own stencil’… Read More birthday plants
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’ve been thinking about my mum quite a bit recently as I’ve started making Mother’s Day cards. She sadly died nearly 4 years ago – this card was especially poignant as daffodils were her favourite flower, so this one’s in memory of her. I took the colours from this week’s… Read More Mum’s daffodil
Welcome to my crafty blog and a calorie free cupcake -what’s not to like?! This one fits in perfectly with my weight loss plan. Stampin’ Up!’s ‘hello cupcake’ set was one of the first of theirs I bought a few years ago, and it’s definitely been a keeper. I immediately thought of it for the… Read More chocolate cupcake!
Welcome to my crafty blog and another card ready for Mother’s Day next month.
