Hello everyone and welcome to the 900th post on this little blog! I can’t believe I’ve been sharing my crafting creations and thoughts for the last three years – thank you for sticking with me! Today’s card is a first outing this year for the ‘pansy’ dies from Stampin’ Up! I thought of these when… Read More 900!
Welcome to my crafty blog! Today’s card features one of the ‘elegant ladies’ stencils from ClarityCrafts, which was already out on my desk from an earlier project. There’s a few more steps to this one than my usual creations (I think I’m just a lazy crafter at heart, which is why I love CAS designs!!)… Read More city girl!
Hello crafty friends and welcome to my Sunday trip back into Claritystamp’s Craft Club. This time it’s the turn of the ‘patterned circles’ die from May 2021.

I’m also sharing it with Just Add Ink, as coffee and friends are… Read More coffee and friends

Welcome to my crafty blog and a rare occasion when I share something that’s not a card, thanks to Just Add Ink‘s theme this week. I usually make the tage for my presents by die cutting them from the previous year’s Christmas cards (a great way to recycle), but I needed something a bit more… Read More Christmas tag
Hello crafty friends. I’ve been making more cards with Julie Hickey’s ‘sent with love’ envelope stamp, inspired by Phillipa Lewis’ recent online tutorial. I love the idea of stamping only part of the image – it makes stamps much more versatile. I’ve taken the colours from Just Add Ink and will also share it with… Read More birthday love and laughter
Welcome to my crafty blog and another last minute challenge offering. Just Add Ink‘s theme is to ‘choose two’ and it probably doesn’t need explaining that I went for deer & trees! I’m also linking it up with Time Out‘s ‘winter’ challenge I’ve used the Clarity ‘riverside landscape reflection’ masks, starting with a piece of… Read More wintery morning
