Welcome to my crafty blog. Today’s card uses up scraps of paper – always handy! I’ve CASE’d a card I saw by Heidi Collins on Instagram – the inspiration photo at Inspire.Create immediately made me think of it, so I decided to give it a go. I started with a square of white card and… Read More paper strips birthday
Hello crafty friends. Today’s card mainly uses the ‘hues of happiness’ paper from Stampin’ Up picking up on the colours from Color Hues and the layout from CAS Colours & Sketches. I’m also sharing it over at Happy Little Stampers for their ‘anything goes’ dies challenge. This was fairly quick to make, once I’d figured… Read More curvy birthday
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’.

Hello crafty friends. Today’s card uses up a few scraps and offcuts of card, thanks to the theme at Just Us Girls. I do know that some of these pieces might be a bit too big to officially be a scrap, but I didn’t cut into a single full size piece of card or paper… Read More birthday scraps?

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
Hello there. Well it’s not been the day we’d planned, as the queue for the Queen’s lying-in-state was still closed early this morning. We decided that we couldn’t go later as we are already committed to something tomorrow morning and the queue was forecast to be up to 24 hours wait. So very disapppointing. I… Read More poppy seedheads
