Welcome to my crafty blog and a Christmas card with no ink or stamping on it (not my usual style!) I thought of Clarity’s Santa round aperture die when I saw the theme at The Paper Players and it works really well for the sketch at Atlantic Hearts. Inkspirational‘s theme of paper piecing was also… Read More paper pieced Santa
Hello there. Well it’s Sunday again so I’ve dipped back into Clarity’s craft club, this time for the ‘just a little note’ die from June 2020. I thought I’d take a break from Christmas cards and make a start on a few thank you notes (yes, I am hoping for lots of lovely presents!) I… Read More Clarity craft club lookback – just a little note
Hello there. I’m back with a second card today, moving from the old to the new with the latest stamp from Clarity’s craft club.

Hello crafty friends. It’s time for a new theme over at Alphabet Challenge – we’re up to the letter O and Billie has opted for ‘outer space’!

Hello crafty friends and welcome to another Sunday dip back into Clarity’s craft club. This week it’s the friendship cats from November 2021 – it’s a great little art block stamp, but I have to say that when my cats are facing each other this way they’re not generally looking very friendly….! The first step… Read More Clarity Craft Club lookback – friendship

I was looking at the inspiration photo at Inkspirational, and thought the paisley design would work on kraft card in place of the lace in the picture. I started by stamping the paisley pattern twice… Read More Claritystamp craft club lookback – paisley
Hello crafty friends. It’s Sunday again, so here’s the next in my journey back through Claritystamp’s Craft Club, with the ‘birthday wreath’ from July 2021. I need to make a couple of anniversary cards for friends, so thought this would give me a good start – there are lots of little hearts tucked into the… Read More Claritystamp craft club lookback – birthday wreath
Hello crafty friends. Well I’m back after another short break away and thought I ought to make use of the ‘wheelbarrow’ from last month’s Claritystamp Craft Club, not least because this month’s is due to drop through my letterbox any day now! The first step was to stamp the image in black onto a square… Read More leafy wheelbarrow
Welcome to my crafty blog and the new theme over at the Alphabet Challenge. We’re now on to J and Caz has gone with ‘juvenile’, which means relating to young people. I need some more new baby cards, so thought that would fit the bill. I do love this Noah’s Ark image from the retired… Read More J for Juvenile
Hello there. Today’s card picks up a couple of challenges that feature favourite things. TGIF‘s new theme is exactly that, and I’ve just got time to get this card entered into Inkspirational‘s ‘favourite monochrome’ challenge as well. My friends won’t be surprised to see that this card features shades of teal! I’ve used 3 Distress… Read More a card of favourites
