Welcome to my crafty blog and a birthday card for a change! I’ve made good use of the ‘build-a-scene’ collection from ClarityCrafts with the ‘meadow flowers’ stamps and the masks, taking the palette from Creative Colour Challenges and the layout from Atlantic Hearts challenge. I’m also sharing it with Seize the Birthday – they’ve listed… Read More birthday scenes
Hello again! Today’s card showcases the ‘christmas deer’ aperture round die, another goodie that’s currently in ClarityCrafts‘ Gray Friday sale. I thought it would work well with the red & gold scheme from Color Hues, together with the themes from Time Out and The Holly and Ivy, and the top row (family critters, die cut… Read More red deer
Hello crafty friends! Today’s card features an older stamp set from ClarityCrafts that’s a great bargain in their current Gray Friday sale (Barbara Gray doesn’t do black, obviously!) I’ve only used a single stamp on this, the one from the top left corner of the set, picking up the colours from HandStampedSentiments, the leaves from… Read More a clever corner!

Hello crafty friends. I’ve been showcasing the new Christmas quote stamps from ClarityCrafts over the last few days, but what I haven’t shown you are the A5 postcards that go with them as well. They’re the same quotes as the stamps, but in a larger font and perfect for adding your own decoration to. I… Read More twinkle twinkle little star
Hello again! I’m back with a second card today, showcasing one of ClarityCrafts‘ new Christmas quote stamps again, this time with their ‘Christmas rounds – lights’ stencil.

Welcome to my crafty blog and a second outling for the new ‘roses’ floral aperture framer die from ClarityCrafts. I’ve got a bit of a different look on this one, after the white on white card I shared on Wednesday, thanks to a piece of Clarity’s Shenandoah designer paper. The die also works beautifully for… Read More Q for Quadruple at Alphabet Challenge
