Welcome to my crafty blog, and a clean and simple card inspired by a couple of this week’s blog challenges.

Welcome to my crafty blog and another card using Stampin’ Up!’s ‘plentiful plants’ set. Thank you cards are always useful to have in my stash, so this week’s theme at Global Design Project was very helpful.

I picked up their sketch as well for… Read More a pot of pansies
Welcome to my crafty blog and another outing for Stampin’ Up’s ‘artistically inked’ set. I’ve used the colours from the current challenge at Colour INKspiration, which is on Facebook. They aren’t a combination I’d usually pick up myself, but do work really well for floral cards though. I started by making a 6×6 card blank… Read More birthday flowers
Welcome to my crafty blog. Another quick card today – for some reason I’ve been really tired all day, although that may have something to do with the fact that my sister came to stay for the weekend and we’ve been out & about in London. I’m clearly out of practice! I’ve taken inspiration from… Read More plentiful plants
Welcome to my crafty blog. I had meant to share this card yesterday, but spent the day in central London with my sister and just ran out of time… It is so lovely to have the Covid restrictions easing – we even went to the theatre (wearing masks, of course) for the first time two… Read More black & white butterfly
Welcome to my crafty blog. I’ve had another play with Stampin’ Up!’s ‘Artistically Inked’ stamp set, this time just using the smaller individual stamps with the sketch from CAS Colours & Sketches and the colour palette from Color Throwdown.
