I’m all for quick and simple. With three young children in the house, I never really get the time to sit down and craft away to my heart’s content. So if I do end up with a couple of hours to myself, I want to be able to make a stack of cards and not come away with one – even if it is amazing! So here is an idea… Read More »

Morning! Someone asked me recently about our Simply Pressed Clay – found in our annual catalogue. It is really one of our hidden gems, so easy to use and so inexpensive. You can see it here in our catalogue together with the moulds. There are so many ways to use it and colour it and add a bit of glitz and shimmer to it. So IO thought who better to showcase… Read More »

I have an all day Fayre coming up this weekend so have been busy getting some stock ready for my booth. I thought I would show you this frame that I created using the Baby We’ve Grown stamp set. I’ve used Soft Sky, Silver Glimmer Paper and Fresh Prints Designer Paper Stack. I’ve also used Banner Blast that was available during our Sale-a-bration promotion earlier this year and its matching… Read More »
Not a flower in sight this time! No pastels either! I thought I would show you a totally different card using Stampin’ Up’s hostess set, Morning Meadow. I showed you 2 cards already this week using this set in different colourways, this time I am going for Real Red. And in the year since I received it, I have to admit I have yet to ink up the little bird… Read More »

I often hear the refrain of ‘but I’m not artistic’ or ‘I don’t have the ideas’. Quite frankly, I don’t always come up with original ideas either! Luckily, Stampin’ Up! have a policy known as CASE-ing which stands for Copy and Share Everything. Sometimes, I see a design online that gives me an idea, or maybe I copy the layout with different supplies, or in this case, I fall in… Read More »
