Good morning crafty friends! I’ve got another early post to share with you today, made with the new Square Tree Aperture stamps that Barbara is launching on Clarity Social TV this afternoon.

Hello everyone and welcome to my last post of 2025! It doesn’t seem 5 minutes since we were welcoming this year in and yet so much has happened since then – I must be getting old!

Hello everyone. Are you having a quiet few days in this time between Christmas and New Year or, like me, has life got busy again (so far this week I’ve been to a wedding and a funeral – and it’s only Tuesday!) With my grandson’s baptism and first birthday coming up on Sunday as well,… Read More Clarity Craft Club 2025 lookback – May

First, though, I needed to create a frame on a 6×6… Read More triangle trees

Hello friends. I’ve been trying to use up some of my stash today, starting with a gel plate print I pulled last week using Sam’s Christmas BOW-WOB papers. I was actually making it for one of my live demos last week (check that one out here), but forgot to put a square of stencil card… Read More Tis the season
Hello everyone. Another late post from me (it’s getting to be a bit of a habit!), but it’s been a busy day again and I hadn’t drafted this one up ahead of time. This is another of the designs I was demoing at Clarity’s Open Days last month and I realised I hadn’t shared it… Read More Christmas in grey
Hello crafty friends and welcome to a rather late post today (it’s 11pm here in the UK!) There’s a reason for that – I’m delighted to have been invited to join the design team at Addicted to Stamps & More and their posts go out on an afternoon US timezone. So welcome to their last… Read More Joining Addicted to Stamps & More at Christmas!
Hello everyone – I hope your weekend is going well. I’m back with another of my demos from yesterday’s Clarity Social TV shows using the quirky new Sam’s Christmas Tree stamps, this time with a little friend and a background using her new Christmas BOW-WOB papers too.
