My second blog of the day, this time with the November die from the Claritystamp New Design Club. These holly birds are so lovely cut in gold card, that I stripped the design right back from what I had originally planned. Clearly, I started by cutting the die into a piece of gold satin effect… Read More 12 Dies of Clarity – day 11 November’s ‘holly birds’ aperture die
Welcome to my crafty blog on day 11 of my ’12 Days of Clarity’ challenge. Today’s card uses the November ‘sing your song’ stamp from Claritystamp’s New Design Club.

It’s Sunday evening and I’m now sharing the card I’ve made with the ‘leafy stag die that was November’s New Design Club from Claritystamp. One of my friends was sharing photos of the deer in Richmond Park over New Year, which inspired this card of a wintry morning, although it’s not gone entirely according to… Read More 12 Dies of Clarity – day 10 October’s ‘leafy stag’ aperture die
So it’s day 10 of my Clarity challenge and I’m making Christmas cards in January. I’ve never made any ahead of September before, and my sons are now very confused! However, as October’s New Design Club stamp was this ‘holly & ivy’ square, it was a bit of a no brainer ( and there are… Read More 12 Days of Clarity – day 10 October’s ‘holly & ivy’ stamp
I’m back again, this time with day 9 of my ’12 Dies of Clarity’ challenge, using ‘a bird in the hand’ aperture die that was September’s New Design Club from Claritystamp.

Happy New year, one and all – welcome to 2021! I’m on day 8 of my ’12 Days of Clarity’ challenge and today used the August New Design Club stamp, ‘Let’s Dance’. It would make a great children’s card, but I did that yesterday so decided to turn it into a new year card instead.… Read More 12 Days of Clarity – day 8 August’s ‘Let’s Dance’ stamp
Day 7 of my ’12 Dies of Clarity’ and I’m onto the July New Design Club die, which is the ‘overlay leafy aperture’. I started the first card by cutting the die twice into a piece of green card, and then trimmed out all the leaves from the centre so I was left with a… Read More 12 Dies of Clarity – day 7 July’s ‘overlay leafy aperture’
Welcome to day 7 of my ’12 Days of Clarity’ personal challenge. Today I’m on to the ‘iron horse’ stamp from Claritystamp’s New Design Club in July. I really wasn’t sure how to use this stamp to start with, so did a bit of browsing on Pinterest and saw quite a few cards that had… Read More 12 Days of Clarity – day 7 July ‘iron horse’ stamp
