Welcome to my crafty blog and my regular Sunday dip back into Clarity’s craft club. Today it’s the turn of the leafy triangle art block stamp from December 2021, which has now brought me right up to the current year – I’m going to have to think of something new for next Sunday! I’ve picked… Read More Clarity Craft Club lookback – leafy triangle
Welcome to my crafty blog. We’ve got a new challenge over at As You See It and this time Heather’s chosen a lovely colour palette for us. I decided to keep it simple again, picking up the new theme from AAA Cards, which gave me a great excuse to get Clarity’s gnomes out again! I… Read More gnome alone – As You See It #285
Hello crafty friends. I’m delighted to be back with this card, as guest designer for the new grid over at TicTacToe challenge. I’ve gone with the middle row on this one – orange for my autumn (fall) ginko leaves, and adding pencil colouring as my free option. I took the colour scheme from the current… Read More autumn ginko for TicTacToe challenge
Hello crafty friends and welcome to another Sunday dip back into Clarity’s craft club. This week it’s the friendship cats from November 2021 – it’s a great little art block stamp, but I have to say that when my cats are facing each other this way they’re not generally looking very friendly….!

Welcome to my crafty blog and a colourful rainbow to brighten your day. This is a great quote from Maya Angelou and I knew exactly which stamp to use when I saw it was the theme over at Time Out. I’ve teamed it with the colours from the inspiration photo at AAA cards, and their… Read More dotty rainbow
Hello there. It’s been a very solemn day in the UK with the funeral of HM Queen Elizabeth II taking place, and so I wanted a simple card that suited the mood. She was known to love life in the countryside, as well as being a committed Christian, so I went with a couple of… Read More peace within
Hello crfty frends. Sunday again, so here’s the next stamp from Clarity’s craft club last year – September’s ‘paisley’ image. I was looking at the inspiration photo at Inkspirational, and thought the paisley design would work on kraft card in place of the lace in the picture. I started by stamping the paisley pattern twice… Read More Claritystamp craft club lookback – paisley
Hello there! I still had Claritystamp’s ‘Tina’s doodle flowers’ out on my desk, so decided to make use of the dragonflies from the set for today’s card, thanks to the inspiration photo at The Card Concept (I know it’s a butterfly, but dragonflies are close, aren’t they?) I took the layout from Freshly Made Sketches… Read More doodle dragonflies
