Hello crafty friends and welcome to another look at the new French lace sampler stamp set from Clarity. I went down a different route with this one, tying in a striped background made with one of the Pergacolour pens. The first step was to create the background on a 5×5 card blank. I lined up… Read More French lace stripes

Well, having broken open the packaging for the new landscapes backdrop prints with Monday’s card and the little tag topper, I’ve stepped it up today by using one of the larger 7×7 prints and both the Build a Landscape stamp sets! Now, before you start thinking these cards must be absolutely enormous, I… Read More more landscapes!

Hello friends and welcome to Sunday’s post! I’ve dipped back to one of my favourites images for today’s card, with Linda’s Poppies stamps – they were the obvious choice when I saw the inspiration photo at Just Us Girls and obviously also fit the ‘blooms’ aspect at Triple B.

Anyway, I opted for some summery colours for a simple butterfly card today, using one of Clarity’s Just… Read More silhouette frame butterfly
Hello crafty friends! It is seriously H O T here in London (32 degrees C this afternoon!) and forecast to rise further at the weekend! It’s too hot to spend much time outside, so a good reason to stay indoors and craft (not that I’ve ever needed much of an excuse!) I finished off some… Read More circle of leaves
Hello friends and welcome to a dip back into the Clarity archives with Tina’s retro stars stamp set – having looked back in this little blog, I last used these stamps at the beginning of last year!
