Hello crafty friends. Today’s card is something a bit different for me – I don’t very often make cards with fancy folds, although this isn’t too much of a stretch as it’s a fairly straightforward easel card. I’ve taken inspiration for this little offering from a couple of current challenges. I picked up the overall… Read More celebrate every moment
Hello crafty friends. Today’s card uses Stampin’ Up!’s ‘birds and branches’ set, which I always think is great for a slightly different new baby/ baby shower card.

It’s larger than the usual club dies, but… Read More 12 Dies of Clarity day 12 – abstract snowflake

Hello crafty friends and welcome to day 9 of my 12 Dies of Clarity challenge, with the ‘happy birthday musical notes’ dies from September’s Craft Club.
