Hello crafty friends. I’ve been playing with another new Clarity product today – the Triangle Trees masks.

Hello crafty friends. I’m back with another look at the fab big SHAC people stamps that Clarity released this week – today I’m playing with a couple of the characters from set 1 that I thought looked rather oriental!

Hello there! I’ve got a quick & simple card to share with you today, using some more of the mop-up pieces from my rather large stash that I picked out when I was looking for yesterday’s background.
