Welcome to my crafty blog and a new letter and theme over at Alphabet challenge. We’re up to K and Billie has chosen ‘kindness’ for this one – our cards need to include the word itself. It’s always exciting to see what my fellow design team members have made, but we love to see your… Read More K is for kindness
Welcome to my crafty blog. Another quick card today – for some reason I’ve been really tired all day, although that may have something to do with the fact that my sister came to stay for the weekend and we’ve been out & about in London. I’m clearly out of practice! I’ve taken inspiration from… Read More plentiful plants
Welcome to my crafty blog and a new theme over at The Alphabet Challenge. We’re now up to ‘i’ in our alphabet and Dawn has chosen ‘insects’ for us. I decided to go with butterflies (after checking on the Zoological Society of London’s website that they really are insects – which they are!) Amazingly, there… Read More I is for insects
Welcome to my crafty blog and another nice and simple card. I’ve delved back into last year’s Clarity Craft Club dies for this one, using the ‘leafy aperture’ from July (#19). I thought it would work well with the inspiration photo from the current challenge at Inkspirational, which features a greenhouse. I started by embossing… Read More I thought about you
Welcome to my crafty blog. Under normal circumstances I’d have been down in Kent today at the Claritystamp Open Day, but our persistent friend Covid and it’s restrictions has put paid to that, so Clarity are having an online festival this weekend instead. I decided to have another play with the ‘riverside landscape reflection’ masks… Read More one day at a time
Welcome to my crafty blog and another card using my new favourite stamps – the ‘pansy patch’ from Stampin’ Up! It’s been a busy day today, so just time for a quick post to share this one – I’ve gone for some of my favourite summer pansy colours as well. I started by embossing one… Read More summer pansies
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’m back with a couple more Father’s Day cards – I’m definitely on a roll with this! This first one uses a retired Stampin’ Up! set – ‘Sky’s the Limit’, which was one of the first SU sets I bought. I’ve hung onto it as it’s so useful for masculine… Read More you send me soaring
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’ve been making a few more Father’s Day cards, which I’ll be sharing over the next few days, starting with this one using Stampin’ Up’s ‘Whiskey Business’ set. I bought this last year as it was perfect for a card I was asked to make, and it’s been carried over… Read More it’s a whiskey business!
Welcome to my crafty blog. I decided we needed a bright and cheerful card today, as the weather here in London has not been great. This is another one of the new sets from Julie Hickey – ‘floral happiness’, and I thought it was perfect for this week’s photo inspiration challenge from Just Add Ink.… Read More floral happiness
welcome to my crafty blog. I’m back with another card using the Stampin’ Up! ‘friends are like seashells’ stamp set. This is such a fun set to use – much more versatile than it appears at first glance. I’ve taken inspiration for this card from the current challenge layout over at CAS Colours & Sketches… Read More a collection of seashells
