Welcome to my crafty blog and a birthday card with lots of blue skies (we’ve got hot weather on the way here). I’ve used a combination of Claritystamp products for this one, including a newbie from the ‘grunge elements’ set that I recently bought (feeling very proud for getting it out of it’s wrapper so… Read More birthday butterfly
Welcome to my crafty blog. I decided to pick out another Stampin’ Up! set that I bought last year, played with a few times and then haven’t used for ages – the ‘many layered blossoms’ dies. I think I need to get a better system going for working through all my stash so it doesn’t… Read More die cut blossoms
Welcome to my crafty blog and my second post of the day. This one is a diamond wedding anniversary card that I was asked to make, and I’ve dug back into my stash of Claritystamps for some old favourites. I started with the word stamp that has 1 Corinthians 13 on it, and repeat stamped… Read More diamond wedding
Welcome to my crafty blog and another lookback into the Claritystamp new design club. This week I’m using the ‘Alice’ stamp from April 2015 – she looks like she’s deep in thought, so I decided to sit her out on a hillside as it’s a Sunday afternoon. I started by stamping her in black Archival… Read More Claritystamp new design club lookback – Alice #102
Welcome to my crafty blog. Today’s card uses some more of my favourite blending techniques, plus the Claritystamp landscape masks that are on my regular use list. I was so pleased with the way the colours from this week’s CAS Colours & Sketches challenged worked for this card. I also took the theme from Global… Read More sunset scene

Welcome to my crafty blog. After sharing some of my older stash over the last couple of days, I’m now back with a brand new set of linocut stamps from Claritystamp. These are not my usual style, but I decided to invest in a set anyway. The stamps are from original linocuts produced by Barbara… Read More linocut allium
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’ve stepped up today’s card with a little heat embossing on a Claritystamp that I’ve had for a long time but not used nearly as much as I should. This ‘love is in the air’ stamp is such a great image – it reminds me of a Banksy artwork. I… Read More love is in the air
Welcome to my crafty blog and some slightly unseasonal primroses! I love these three way overlay stamps from Claritystamp (they’ve got quite a few in their range now), although I do have to use my stamping platform to make sure I get each one lined up fully before I ink it. I can’t manage to… Read More primroses
Welcome to my crafty blog and a second post for today. It’s Sunday, so time for the next one of my lookbacks through Clarity’s new design club, this time to February 2015 and the ‘time for something new’ sentiment stamp. This is a really useful sentiment – I’ve used it quite a few times over… Read More Claritystamp new design club lookback – time for something new #100
