Welcome to my crafty blog and the new theme of U for Under Something at Alphabet Challenge, which Melanie has challenged us with.

Hello crafty friends! Well, it’s finally Christmas Eve and as it’s Sunday I’ve dipped back into Clarity‘s Craft Club for the next stencil in my series – although it’s a floral pattern one it felt right to turn it to a Christmas theme with the colours from Just Add Ink, which also picks up the challenge… Read More Clarity craft club lookback – flower confetti stencil
