Hello there. I’m back with a second post today, this time using one of the flower stamps from Claritystamp’s February Craft Club. I had a very productive time today, as my sister, my crafty buddy and I had our monthly online ‘Crafternoon’, playing with our Craft Club goodies. I’ve used the sketch from CAS Colours… Read More beauty’s glance
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’ve been playing today with the latest stencil from Claritystamp’s monthly Craft Club – this lovely wave of butterflies. I’ve used the colours from Color Thowdown and the embossing theme from Just Us Girls. I’m also going to share it as a second card for Inkspirational‘s ‘curve’ challenge. I started… Read More butterfly curve
Hello crafty friends. Today’s card is another one in my happy CAS zone, this time using one of Claritystamp’s backdrop stamps and their ‘fly away’ set. I thought they worked well for the sketch over at AAA cards with the colours from Global Design Project I started with the small circle backdrop stamp and blended… Read More fly away
Hello crsfty friends. I’m back in my happy place today with this CAS card using one of my favourite sets from Claritystamp – the ‘birdhouse garden’. I immediately thought of the fab little cat when I saw the ‘feline’ theme from Addicted to CAS. He also fits Just Us Girls‘ word week, ‘lucky’, which is… Read More lucky to know you
Hello crafty friends and welcome to my Sunday dip back into Claritystamp’s Craft Club. This ‘ornate frame’ stamp is from October 2018, and I decided to use it to create a little scene with some of the ‘garden’ stamp set. I started with a square of white card and stamped the frame in the centre… Read More Claritystamp craft club lookback – ornate frame
Hello crafty friends. Well I’m trying to keep up with my ambition to make a few Christmas cards each month, so it’s not such a rush in the autumn. I’m probably not making as much progress with that as I’d hoped, so today’s card takes me one step further. I’ve used Claritystamp’s ‘nativity miniatures’ stamp… Read More snowflake peace
Welcome to my crafty blog and another die cut from Claritystamp. I’ve gone for paper piecing with this one, rather than ink blending – I love the way you can get such a different look with these aperture dies just by varying the technique. This card was inspired by the challenge photo at Fusion, and… Read More colourful birds
Welcome to my crafty blog and another Sunday dip back into Claritystamp’s craft club. This week, I’m back to September 2018 and the ‘willow tree’ stamp. Now, I often comment that I hadn’t used the club stamps until now, however I did have a good excuse back then for not using this one – I… Read More Claritystamp craft club lookback – willow tree #143
Welcome to my crafty blog, and another card ready for Mother’s Day next month. This time I’ve used Claritystamp’s ‘leafy swirl’ aperture die, with the colours from this week’s Color Throwdown. I took the layout from the current sketch at Freshly Made Sketches, plus one of my favourite techniques (blending brushes) thanks to TGIF challenges… Read More leafy swirl
Welcome to my crafty blog. I started working on this card earlier today and, as is so often the case for me, it kept evolving as I went along! I’d decided to try to make a card that’s a bit more ‘grungy’ (not my usual style, as you’ll know), using the colours from Just Us… Read More make art not war
