Hello crafty friends. I’m dropping in with a change of pace on today’s card, as I’m not wholly focused on Christmas celebrations today! I’ll be at my church’s outdoor carol service late afternoon (always so lovely with lights strung in the church gardens and a bonfire burning), but then will be heading over to my… Read More all the candles
Hello crafty friends. I hope you’ve had a good weekend – I’ve been recovering from all yesterday’s excitement today! I made this card at the end of last week, when a friend & I caught up for an online session together.

It’s the last weekend before Christmas and I’m a bit earlier posting today’s card – we’ve got a Christmas play at my church this evening, with final rehearsals this afternoon and I’m then having supper with a friend to watch the Strictly Come Dancing final. It’s all go! Anyway, the Bijou Art Nouveau… Read More art nouveau thank you

Hello everyone – it’s Sunday evening and we’re headed for the last full week before the big day.

Hello crafty friends. Well, after the new goodies I’ve been playing with over the last few days, I took a turn on today’s little creation and dipped back into the Craft Club for the ‘wrapped in lace’ stamp (#205) from November 2023. It’s such a pretty design, I really should use it more – today… Read More A gift for you
Hello crafty friends. I’ve been playing with another new Clarity product today – the Triangle Trees masks. These came out of one of Barbara’s SHAC (Safe, Happy & Creative) sessions when she was drawing them, and they make layering up the trees so easy. First, though, I needed to create a frame on a 6×6… Read More triangle trees
