Hello crafty friends. I’ve delved back into my folder of inky mop-up pieces for the background piece on this card and teamed it with what I think is my favourite stamp from Clarity’s 2021 Craft Club – I just love this little landscape. The starting point for this card was an easy choice, as the… Read More another inky background
Hello crafty friends. Welcome to day 2 of my 12 Dies of Clarity and the ‘floral forest aperture’ from February. I decided I would use up a few of my small inky mop-up backgrounds that have built up during the year (although these three barely make a dent in the large pile I’ve accumulated!) I… Read More 12 Dies of Clarity – day 2 floral forest aperture
Hello crafty friends. It’s Sunday so time for another dip back into the Claritystamp new design club – this time for the ‘we go together…’ sentiment from July 2017.

Welcome to my crafty blog, and some stamps from Claritystamp that I’ve had for a while but only recently started to use – the ‘hats 2’ set. I thought it would work well with the inspiration photo from Time Out challenges, and the colours from Just Us Girls were ideal. I started with one of… Read More friends are the family you get to choose
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’m keeping it simple today with a CAS masculine card, inspired by the themes over at The Paper Players and Addicted to CAS. I dipped back into my Claritystamp stash for this little stamp of the fisherman, which comes from the ‘love framer’ stamp set, and teamed it with the… Read More something fishy
Welcome to my crafty blog. This is definitely the summer of the ‘staycation’ and I’m looking forward to maybe getting some trips to the seaside over the next few weeks. This week’s challenge over at The Paper Players is being hosted by Joanne, who’s definitely picked up on the vibe! I thought Claritystamp’s ‘village harbour’… Read More beside the seaside
Welcome to my crafty blog and a second card for today. I had a lovely happy parcel delivered this morning, with my new goodies from the recent Claritystamp club members sale, so I got straight on to playing with some of the stamps I’d purchased – well it would have been rude not to, after… Read More linocut flowers
It’s Sunday evening again and I’m back with another dip into Claritystamp’s new design club – this time it’s the ‘pot plant’ from June 2015.
