Hello crafty friends. I’m back in my comfort zone today with another look at the Summer Build a Wreath stamps!

I started with one of Clarity’s… Read More summer poppies

Hello friends. I thought I’d share the first demo from this morning’s Clarity Social TV show where I made this fab 3D butterfly – and very unusually for me there is no inking or stamping anywhere on this little project!

Hello crafty friends. I’m late posting today – I’ve been busy working on samples for my Clarity shows next Friday (25th), but grabbed a few minutes, the ‘be still and listen‘ aperture die and a piece of Waimea Falls designer paper to make this pretty card.
