I started with half a 5×5 card blank and ran two strips of masking tape across it to create a… Read More dream
hello again. I’m back with the last of my design team samples using the new ‘bijou dangles’ stamps from ClarityCrafts – this time it’s the ‘dream’ set, which I’ve paired with the leafy strip stencil, inspired by one of Eileen Godwin’s designs (she is the stencil queen!)

Hello there. I’m back with another of my demo’s from last Saturday’s TV shows, this time using the Paris skyscape aperture die from ClarityCrafts, which works beautifully for the layout at Atlantic Hearts (I swapped the heart for a circle die and rotated the sketch to put the sentiment at the top).
