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….! The first step… Read More Clarity Craft Club lookback – friendship
Hello crafty friends. I’m now up to October 2021 for this week’s dip back into the Clarity Craft Club, which helpfully was this Christmas tree stamp – nice and timely for a bit more batch making! I decided to do something a bit different with the stamp, but first embossed a frame onto a square… Read More Clarity Craft Club lookback – Christmas tree
So another two weeks has gone by and we’ve got our next theme at Alphabet Challenge, where Dawn has chosen M for Magic. I haven’t used Clarity Crafts’ ‘fairy round’ stamps for some time and decided to go with the ‘daydream’ one for this card, picking up the colours from Color Throwdown and the layout… Read More Alphabet challenge – M for magic

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
Hello crafty friends. Today’s card uses a Claritystamp set that I’ve been meaning to get out again for some time – Tina’s doodle flowers. It’s got lots of little elements in it, and those birds are just so cute! I thought it would work well with the colours from the new challenge at Color Throwdown,… Read More happy birday!
Well it’s Sunday (it comes round so quickly!), so I’ve gone back into Claritystamp’s Craft Club for the ‘trio of flowers’ set from August 2021 – it’s a really sweet little group of stamps. As I usually do, I started with a square of white card. I ran a piece of masking tape across the… Read More Claritystamp Craft Club lookback – trio of flowers
