Hello everyone. I’ve got some pretty florals for you today thanks to the April stamps from Clarity’s monthly Craft Club.

I sat him in a chilly scene from the Landscapes by Barbara toppers set. The first step was to find a suitable… Read More Clarity Craft Club – December snowman
Hello crafty friends. I’m sharing a card & ATC (artist’s trading card) that I sent to my partner in this month’s Clarity ATC swap. The theme was ‘festive’ and ‘silver’ and I opted to put the November Craft Club stencil into use on both the ATC and card. Let me talk you through the process… Read More Craft Club stencil – foliage tree
