Hello crafty friends and welcome to this week’s Christmas card – I’ve got a nice little pile of them building up! I like to get the most value out of my stamps, so it’s always fun to look at how to repurpose them for other occasions! This time, I’ve taken one of the recent ‘floral… Read More Christmas floral crescent wreath

Welcome to my crafty blog and another of the floral sprays stamps from ClarityCrafts, this time the ‘ginkgo leaves’. It’s another beautifully detailed image with infill stamps, although this time I went with watercolouring the image. But first, I took half a 5×5 card blank (my new favourite way to make my toppers) and created… Read More ginkgo leaves
Hello there! I’m back with another of my DT samples from Sunday’s ClarityCrafts TV shows, this time showcasing the lovely ‘chinese lanterns’ (or physalis) spray.

Hello there. I’m carrying on with my latest Clarity Craft Club goodies, today with the ‘daisies’ stamp that arrived earlier this month. Sadly, I need a few sympathy cards (it’s that time of year!) and I thought the colours from The Paper Players would work for that. I’m also going to share it as another contribution to Colorful… Read More February daisies
Hello craft friends. I’m back with another take on one of the new ‘doodleology’ postcards from ClarityCrafts, again using the ‘square’ design but this time with their ‘abstract layout 1’ die that was released a couple of weeks ago. I started by cutting the abstract layout die into black card and attached it to a 6×6… Read More Doodled with love
Welcome to my crafty blog and our new challenge at CAS Colours & Sketches. This week it’s a colour palette and I’ve opted to use it with the cornflower, one of the new ‘wildflower’ stamps that ClarityCrafts have released as one of their returning Classics collection, picking up the layout from AAA Cards. I’ve kept it… Read More CAS Colours & Sketches 530 – cornflower
