Hello crafty friends. I hope you’ve had a good weekend – I’ve been recovering from all yesterday’s excitement today! I made this card at the end of last week, when a friend & I caught up for an online session together. She’d got Jayne’s Floral Sampler out for some last minute cards and I realised… Read More sparkly poinsettia

Hello friends. There’s another heatwave on the way for the UK this weekend, so I decided to channel cooler thoughts with this week’s Christmas card (although I don’t think these snowflakes would last very long outside!) It’s another very simple card using Clarity’s Christmas Corners stamp set and a bit of sparkly heat embossing. I… Read More snowflake corners

Hello there! We’re midway through another week and I’ve dropped the ball recently on my resoution to make one Christmas card each week through the year (although I have been helped by having Christmas products on my last two TV shows!) Anyway, I thought I’d better get back into gear now we’re into September, so… Read More holly stencil
