Welcome to my crafty blog. Now as all good crafters know, Christmas starts in July so I’m getting organised this year and here’s the first of my offerings! To be honest, it’s thanks to the challenge over at Addicted to CAS as their theme is …. ‘Christmas’! I decided it was perfect to combine with… Read More Christmas stars
Welcome to my crafty blog, and another pansy! I do really like the ‘pansy patch’ set from Stampin’ Up! – the versatility with being able to create flowers by stamping and just with die cuts is so useful. Unusually for me today’s card has got very little stamping on it, apart from the sentiment and… Read More pansy patch
Welcome to my crafty blog. Bit of a late post today with my weekly dip into the Claritystamp new design club – this time it’s the agapanthus stamp from March 2015. I decided to use it for a few of this week’s blog challenges. The colours are from Color Throwdown – for once I’ve stayed… Read More Claritystamp new design club lookback – agapanthus #101
Welcome to my crafty blog. After sharing some of my older stash over the last couple of days, I’m now back with a brand new set of linocut stamps from Claritystamp. These are not my usual style, but I decided to invest in a set anyway. The stamps are from original linocuts produced by Barbara… Read More linocut allium
Welcome to my crafty blog. It’s time for a new challenge over at Alphabet – we’re up to G this time and Meg has asked us to use green or gold (can you guess which one I went for…?). I’ve gone for a quick and easy design with this card, as I’ve combined it with… Read More G is for green
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’ve stepped up today’s card with a little heat embossing on a Claritystamp that I’ve had for a long time but not used nearly as much as I should. This ‘love is in the air’ stamp is such a great image – it reminds me of a Banksy artwork. I… Read More love is in the air
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’m sitting here watching tennis at Wimbledon, so had to go wiht strawberries for this card! I also took inspiration from a couple of challenges with the layout from Freshly Made Sketches. I’ve picked up the theme of ‘farmhouse chic’ from TGIF challenges – I love homemade strawberry jam, and… Read More strawberries just for you
Welcome to my crafty blog and some slightly unseasonal primroses! I love these three way overlay stamps from Claritystamp (they’ve got quite a few in their range now), although I do have to use my stamping platform to make sure I get each one lined up fully before I ink it. I can’t manage to… Read More primroses
Welcome to my crafty blog. I treated myself to another new set of stamps, ‘Pretty Perennials’, that were reduced to half price by Stampin’ Up! as they are about to be retired. It’s such a pretty set I gave into temptation having recently done a class using them with Joanne James (aka The Crafty Owl).… Read More floral birthday
Welcome to my crafty blog and a second post for today. It’s Sunday, so time for the next one of my lookbacks through Clarity’s new design club, this time to February 2015 and the ‘time for something new’ sentiment stamp. This is a really useful sentiment – I’ve used it quite a few times over… Read More Claritystamp new design club lookback – time for something new #100
