Welcome to my crafty blog. It’s still too cold here in the UK for butterflies to be making an appearance, so I’ve settled for the ones designed by Hazel Eaton for Julie Hickey Designs instead. I’ve sat them on the ‘circle medley’ stamp to reflect the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches and picked up two… Read More butterflies two ways
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’ve brought out the ‘framed florets’ set from Stampin’ Up!, which I haven’t used for a little while. The palette at Colour INKspiration immediately said ‘flowers’ to me and I took the layout from Freshly Made Sketches which I rotated. I’ve also picked up the embossing challenge from Can You… Read More flowers & wings
Welcome to my crafty blog. I thought we ought to feature a kiss today as it’s Valentine’s Day, but it’s not the sort you might immediately think of – I’ve used the ‘seedpods’ stamps from Clarity’s KISS (Keep It Simple Stamping) range! I thought they would work well with the colours palette from this week’s… Read More seedpods KISS
Well I’m back with a second post today, this time for the new challenge at As You See It. Joanne has come up with a gorgeous colour palette, and I went back to Stampin’ Up!’s ‘framed florets’ set which was still on my desk from earlier this week. I picked up the sketch from Atlantic… Read More you are loved for As You See It challenge
I still can’t bring myself to put Stampin’ Up!’s ‘adorable owls’ set away, so here’s another offering with it. I need more new baby cards and the cute owls just seem to fit the bill. This one is inspired by a couple of blog challenges: The Paper Players have a CAS theme of birds (and… Read More another baby owl
Welcome to my crafty blog and something a bit different from my usual style. I do love a good cup of coffee, so thought of ‘Linda Williams’ coffee quartet’ stamps from Clarity when I saw the moodboard over at Just Us Girls. I’m also sharing it with Just Add Ink, as coffee and friends are… Read More coffee and friends
Hello there! I’m sharing another card today using one of the dandelions stamps from Clarity – they’ve just released a new three-way set of their abstract dandelions, but these are from the original set with individual dandelion stamps & a couple of patterned squares. I’ve taken a very loose interpretation of the sketch over at… Read More abstract dandelions
hello crafty friends. Here we are at the start of another week and I’ve got a last minute submission to a couple of challenge blogs, using the ‘beautifully happy’ stamp set that’s in the current Stampin’ Up! Saleabration. I’ve take the colours from Color Throwdown, the layout from Freshly Made Sketches and a scattering of… Read More beautifully happy hearts
Hello crafty friends. I decided to play with the ‘floral forest’ stamp from Clarity – it’s been in my stash for a while and not emerged for some time! I picked up the colour palette from CAS Colours & Sketches and the ‘romantic’ theme from Time Out for this card. The ‘floral forest’ is a… Read More your heart and my heart
Welcome to my crafty blog. It felt a bit strange today not to be working back through Clarity Craft Club stamps – instead I’ve leapt forwards to a brand new set from Stampin’ Up! that you can get through the current Saleabration that’s just launched (it’s available free when you spend £45). Lots of blog… Read More adorable owls
