Hi there Back in November when we had our OnStage event the Best Dressed Suite was showcased but it didn’t appeal to me so I skipped past this suite. Fast forward to February and our Creative Inkers Stamp Camp. This suite was used for one of our projects and by then end of the weekend… Read More »
Hi there A while ago I needed a sympathy card so I used the Mini Catalogue for my inspiration – check out page 27 to spot the original card. Did you notice that one of the dies in the Poppy Moments Die set doesn’t fully cut out the image? The partial die allows the underneath… Read More »
Hi there Here’s a quick fun card I created that uses three products from the Tropical Oasis Suite – page 38-40 of the Mini Catalogue. I love the texture created by the Coastal Weave 3D Embossing Folder and to make it pop even more lightly apply some Crumb Cake ink. There are two ways to… Read More »
Hi there Today’s card features the Tropical Oasis Suite from page 38-40 of the Mini Catalogue. I don’t own this suite but was fortunate to spend some time with one of my team members who did. This is a Gate Fold card with a difference. When it’s opened up it looks like somebodies had a… Read More »
Hi there Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful Mum’s, Aunt’s, Grandmother’s and those women who have had an impact on our lives – I hope you’ve all had a lovely day. Mother’s Day 2020 is definitely one we won’t be forgetting in a hurry. In previous years I’ve created a little something to give… Read More »
Hi there I’ve really enjoyed using the Million Dollar stamp set inspired by Dawn Olchefske called Music from the Heart. When I first saw this set in the Mini Catalogue I knew of a number of people that would be receiving a card using this set – one is a work colleague who had a… Read More »
Hi there I find sympathy cards one of the hardest to create and even more so when they need to be masculine based. Since we’ve been in lockdown I’ve needed to create two sympathy cards for male colleagues who have lost family members (thankfully not due to COVID-19). I CASE’d this layout from a card… Read More »
Hi there I had a very productive weekend crafting and hope to share some of my projects with you over the coming week. Now that we are in Alert Level 3 Stampin’ Up! has commenced shipping again – yay – so if you are in need of supplies please let me know as I will… Read More »
Hi there It’s hard to believe we’re at the end of April and that means one third of 2020 has just whizzed past – what a year it’s been so far. I hope you are all doing well in your ‘bubbles’ and staying safe. Today’s post features the Million Dollar stamp set inspired by Jacque… Read More »
Hi there I’m sure you’ve all heard the term CASEing a card – Copy And Share Everything. Well today’s projects are a CASE based on the card below from a US demo – Julie Davison. I really liked this card but I didn’t have any of the products she’d used so I checked out my… Read More »
Hi there It’s that time of the year again when we bid a sad farewell to the retiring stamps, papers and products. BUT we won’t be sad for long as the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue is just around the corner. The best way to shop at the moment is via my online shop. Click here… Read More »
Hi there Here in New Zealand we have one more week in Alert Level 4 then move to Alert Level 3. There’s not much difference between levels but it will allow for online shopping so hopefully that means we can place crafting orders again – will keep you posted on that. Today’s post uses one… Read More »
Hi there One of the downsides of being in lockdown and working from home is that the days of the week don’t seem to mean anything anymore. Instead of Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday etc they’ve now become yesterday, today and tomorrow 🙂 Today’s post features some off cuts I had from the Country Club DSP –… Read More »
Hi there I hope you all had a restful Easter weekend. Here in New Zealand we had a ‘staycation’ weekend as we are still in our lockdown. That means no ‘Sunday drives’, no shopping (other than for groceries), no going out with family or friends just staying in our ‘bubble’. So that’s what we did… Read More »
Hi there I’ve been having fun lately creating cards that require colouring in – mainly using my Stampin’ Blends. I find colouring very relaxing and a great way to unwind – I think we all need a bit of that at the moment. I hope these cards will brighten your day. Today’s share uses a… Read More »
