Welcome to my crafty blog. I’ve got something a bit different to share with you today – I don’t normally leave my stamped images in black and white but I’ve used the challenge over at Global Design Project where this week’s project is to CASE (copy and selectively edit) the card designed by Emma. Part… Read More sending birthday wishes
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’m firmly back in my comfort zone with this CAS (clean and simple) card today, using the ‘oriental vine’ stencil from Claritystamp and the colours from Less is More. There is a bit of a twist to this card, though, that has stretched me as this week’s challenge from Just… Read More many happy returns
Welcome to my crafty blog. It’s time for a new challenge at CAS Colours & Sketches and we have a colour scheme this week, with some gorgeous summer shades. I’ve just acquired some brand new stamps designed by Marion Emberson for Julie Hickey Designs, that were only launched last week. I don’t know about you… Read More smile often
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’ve gone back to Stampin’ Up!’s ‘friends are like seashells’ set for today’s card, but this time made the starfish the star of the show (!) rather than the seashells. That might seem a bit odd, given that I’ve used the sketch and inspiration photo from Fusion Card Challenge where… Read More you’ve got a friend
Welcome to my crafty blog and the next installment in my weekly lookback through Claritystamp’s new design club. Today’s card uses the ‘deer heart’ stamp from December 2014 and takes us into the start of my third year as an NDC member. I used one of Barbara Gray’s cards on the project sheet as my… Read More Claritystamp new design club lookback – deer heart #98
Welcome to my crafty blog and another card using my new favourite stamps – the ‘pansy patch’ from Stampin’ Up! It’s been a busy day today, so just time for a quick post to share this one – I’ve gone for some of my favourite summer pansy colours as well. I started by embossing one… Read More summer pansies
Welcome to my crafty blog. Something a bit different today – my son’s friend asked me to make a 60th birthday card for his father, who is a big fan of scooters and the Mod subculture. I’ve gone for a fairly iconic feel for this card, and hopefully captured the style. I started by making… Read More a mod at 60!
Welcome to my crafty blog. Today’s card uses the same background colours as I did yesterday – I really liked the blend of them together and thought they worked well for beach colours. I’ve worked with three current challenges to produce this card. I took the layout from Freshly Made Sketches, but rotated it as… Read More love you to the beach and back
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’ve been playing with one of Claritystamp’s three way stamps – I love the effects you can get with these. This one uses all three of the stamps, and I picked up the colours from the new challenge at Color Throwdown. The birds and rabbits made me think of spring,… Read More the earth has music
Welcome to my crafty blog, and a new challenge over at CAS Colours & Sketches. It’s a sketch this week, and my second one as their guest design team member for June. My new ‘pansy patch’ stamps were just perfect for this design, and I’ve gone with slightly more traditional colours this time round after… Read More it’s the little things
