Hello crafty friends and welcome to our next theme at Alphabet Challenge! This time it’s the letter N and Lynda has opted for ‘nature’. It’s a perfect theme for this time of the year, so I’ve gone for a wreath of leaves picking up the layout from Atlantic Hearts and the ‘autumn’ theme from Addicted… Read More Alphabet Challenge – N for Nature
Hello there! A fairly quick card this evening, firmly back in my CAS comfort zone, using Stampin’ Up!’s ‘Eden’s garden’ set. I went with the colours from Global Design Project, which I thought would work with the ‘leaves’ theme from The Paper Players (I don’t have any scarecrows!) Now I’ve looked at The Paper Players’… Read More Eden’s greeting
Well it’s Sunday (it comes round so quickly!), so I’ve gone back into Claritystamp’s Craft Club for the ‘trio of flowers’ set from August 2021 – it’s a really sweet little group of stamps. As I usually do, I started with a square of white card. I ran a piece of masking tape across the… Read More Claritystamp Craft Club lookback – trio of flowers
Hello there. Well it’s a very sombre day here in the UK, following the death of HM Queen Elizabeth II. Thinsg feel a bit strange, while at the same time so much is just continuing and it’s time for a new theme over at Alphabet Challenge – we’ve reached L and Debbie has opted for… Read More L is for leaves

Hello crafty friends. It’s Sunday again, so here’s the next in my journey back through Claritystamp’s Craft Club, with the ‘birthday wreath’ from July 2021. I need to make a couple of anniversary cards for friends, so thought this would give me a good start – there are lots of little hearts tucked into the… Read More Claritystamp craft club lookback – birthday wreath
Welcome to my crafty blog and another throwback with a retired Stampin’ Up! set – ‘flourishing phrases’. I’ve always liked this floral spray from it, which I thought would sit well on one of my inky backgrounds (haven’t used one of those for a while). I had to get one out after I saw the… Read More an inky background
Hello there! I’d planned to post this card yesterday, but my internet at home has gone down so it’s had to wait until I was somewhere with a wifi connection! First world problem…! It’s another generic one with more butterflies, this time inspired by the colours at TGIF challenges with the themes of ‘tropical’ from… Read More tropical butterflies
Welcome to my crafty blog, and a bit of a two-for-one today. I’ve taken the same design and made it in two colourways, which is a great way of getting extra mileage out of stamp sets. I’ve used the ‘wonderful world’ stamp set, which is part of Stampin’ Up!’s current Saleabration offer. I started with… Read More one design, two cards
Well it’s Sunday again so here I am with the next in my series working back through Claritystamp’s Craft Club stamps. Today it’s the ‘with love mandala’ set from January 2021 and I’ve also included the bonus set that was included at the beginning of the year – they work so well together. I started… Read More Claritystamp craft club lookback – mandala
