Hello crafty friends. I’m back with a couple of cards today that I made with ClarityCrafts ‘adorable baby’ stamp set and one of their new ‘nested square hearts doodle frame-it panels’ dies.

Hello again! Here’s another card using the ‘winter wishes’ set from ClarityCrafts‘ new ‘Linda’s Christmas Compendium’ – these lovely tall trees are in the same set as yesterday’s robins and I’ve used one of the ‘circle backdrop’ stamps for my background. I started with the smaller of the circle backdrop stamps and brayered ‘salvaged patina’… Read More let it snow

Hello there! Today’s card is something a bit different from my usual style, but it’s always good to push yourself, don’t you think? I’ve got lots of offcuts of ClarityCrafts designer papers in my folders as I generally can’t bear to throw any of them away (and I suspect I’m not the only one!) I… Read More paper scrap strips
