Welcome to my crafty blog and the next letter in the Alphabet Challenge series. Today we’re on to D and my teammate Lynda has challenged us to used diecuts on our cards. I’ve gone for one of my favourite sets – ‘honey bee’ from Stampin’Up! (which is now retired) – my card features four die… Read More D is for die cuts
Hello crafty friends. Well I’ve really stepped it up with today’s card – not my usual style as I don’t really go for fancy folds, but I thought it was worth the stretch for once! Just Us Girls are looking for trifold cards in this week’s challenge, and I found a template for this one… Read More birds and bees
Welcome to my crafty blog. It’s time for a new letter over at the Alphabet Challenge and we’re on to X. Not an easy one, but Veronika has come up with ‘xanthic’, which means tending towards yellow (no, I didn’t know that either!). For me, yellow immediately said honey and bees (a real favourite), so… Read More X is for xanthic
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 teamed him with stamps from the ‘happy grunge elements’ set – although I’m with Barbara Gray in that I can only do ‘clean’ grunge! I… Read More a happy bee
Welcome to my crafty blog on another sweltering hot day here in the UK! I sat in the garden to eat my lunch, but got too hot so have come back indoors. I didn’t see many bees around either – they’re clearly all looking for flowers that are nicely in the shade! Today’s card uses… Read More sunshine and happiness
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’ve been playing with Stampin’ Up!’s ‘art gallery’ set again – I do really like these flowers, especially this little spray. I think this set will definitely be a keeper! I’ve taken inspiration for today’s card from three of this week’s challenges: the layout reflects the sketch over at Freshly… Read More I can do all things…
Welcome to my crafty blog. Today’s card features my favourite insect – the honey bee, courtesy of Stampin’ Up!’s set of the same name. It’s close to my heart because my name, Deborah, means bee-like or industrious. I’m always interested in the meaning of people’s names – and then deciding whether or not it fits… Read More honey bees
Hello. welcome to my little crafty blog. I’m just posting a simple card today, but the theme was inspired by an article in this morning’s paper about the first World Bee Count that launches this week. Now I’m very fond of bees, as my name (Deborah) means industrious or bee-like! There has, however, been a… Read More Buzzily crafting
