Well, we’re into the last few hours of the Clarity Crafts Half Price Members’ Sale (it ends at midnight) and I thought I’d shine a spotlight onto a couple of stamp sets that I hadn’t previously thought of using together – the potted plants and the gardening set from the mini hobbies collection. To be… Read More indoor gardening
Hello friends and welcome to Sunday’s post! I’ve dipped back to one of my favourites images for today’s card, with Linda’s Poppies stamps – they were the obvious choice when I saw the inspiration photo at Just Us Girls and obviously also fit the ‘blooms’ aspect at Triple B. I started with one of Clarity’s… Read More summer poppies
Hello there. I’m late posting this evening, but I’ve just been running out of energy in this heat! I seriously don’t know how the tennis players at Queens are coping – or maybe I’m just getting old! Anyway, I opted for some summery colours for a simple butterfly card today, using one of Clarity’s Just… Read More silhouette frame butterfly
Hello everyone. Well, in honour of the heatwave here I’ve brought one of Clarity’s Hippie Chicks out to play – she’s suitably dressed in her crop top and shades! I used the layout from Freshly Made Sketches to show her off (although I moved the sentiment, having not checked properly before I stamped it!) This… Read More hippie chick

Once again, I’ve managed to combine a few challenges to produce this card, starting with the… Read More 25th December
Hello friends and welcome to a dip back into the Clarity archives with Tina’s retro stars stamp set – having looked back in this little blog, I last used these stamps at the beginning of last year! Although I think that probably says more about the quantity of my stash than a commentary on this… Read More retro star frame
Hello friends! Well, it’s Monday again but, on the upside, the sun is forecast to be shining here all week and it’s the Clarity Summer Half Price Members’ Sale! This is just one of the perks from being signed up to one (or more) of Clarity’s monthly Craft Clubs, in addition to a new &… Read More Clarity Craft Club leafy branch stencil
Hello crafty friends. Well, we’re halfway through June already and so it’s time for our latest challenge at Sparkles. This time round our theme is ‘fairytale or storybook’ and it gave me the perfect excuse to play with the Sprite Mini Poppets stamps again – I think Mabel and her little frog are one of… Read More Fairytale at Sparkles Challenge
Hello crafty friends and welcome to Saturday! It’s been a beautiful day here, so the little hedgehog stamp from May’s Clarity Craft Club decided to come out and play! I’ve used the sketch at Atlantic Hearts as the basis for my layout and this little chap is perfect for the nature theme at We Love… Read More Clarity Craft Club – happy hedgehog
