Hello crafty friends – you might be surprised to see that I’m back with another Christmas card today!

Hello crafty friends and welcome to another Christmas card! It must be that time of year…! I’ve used another one of Claritystamp’s stained glass windows, but this time the small stamp rather than the larger die. I’ve had this one for quite a long time – it always feels good when I use older stamps… Read More star window
Hello crafty friends and welcome to today’s offering. It’s another Christmas card, this time using the retired ‘arrange a wreath’ set from Stampin’ Up! with the colour palette from Inspire.Create and the sketch from TGIF.

Hello crafty friends. I’ve got a simple Christmas card to share today using Stampin’ Up!’s ‘merriest frames’ & co-ordinating embossing folder. It was quite quick to make (once I’d figured the design out!) I’ve picked up the ‘winter whites’ theme from Less is More and paired it with Just Us Girls‘ word challenge of ‘merry’.… Read More merry & white
Hello crafty friends and welcome to another late evening blog. I just can’t seem to get myself organised to share my cards earlier in the day! Today’s card uses one of the Christmas rounds dies from Claritystamp – I bought it last year and hadn’t used it so far so it definitely deserved an outing!… Read More Christmas Santa
Hello crafty friends – I’m back with another Christmas card today. This one uses several snowflake based products from Stampin’ Up!, mixing some current ones with retired pieces.

Hello, crafty friends. I’m back after a few days away with my sister and then a little work trip, so thought I’d get straight back into harness with a (fairly) quick Christmas card! I haven’t done any crafting for the last few days and I was getting withdrawal symptoms!! This ‘peace on earth bauble’ stamp… Read More peace on earth
