Welcome to my crafty blog and a look at the new ‘Abstract Layout 5’ die from ClarityCrafts that was released yesterday. It works in so many ways, but I’ve kept it very simple on this one, just using a rainbow of scrap paper pieces in the apertures. It nicely fits the challenges at AAA Colourful… Read More rainbow apertures
Hello there! Today’s card features one of the Country Scenes stamps from ClarityCrafts that I wasn’t able to get to on Saturday’s shows – the ‘friendship narrowboat’ scene.

Hello crafty friends! I’m back with another of my demo cards from yesterday’s TV shows, this time it’s ClarityCrafts ‘Country Scenes on parchment’ – a different take from the stamped image I blogged yesterday.
