It’s challenge time again for me and this week, I have combined two challenges again. I’ve used the new 2015-2017 in-colours suggested by Fab Friday combined with the sketch challenge over at Pals Paper Arts. And here is what I came up with. I’ve used one of my current favourite sets (one of many, I hasten to add!!)- Sprinkles of Life – together with its co-ordinating Tree Builder Punch. Doesn’t adding… Read More »

So, it’s that time of the year when our new annual catalogue is nearly here, but first we have to make room for those bright and shiny new products by saying a tearful goodbye to some of our current products. Our Retiring List was released yesterday – I have an updated version for you here. This shows some of the items that have already sold out (marked with an X… Read More »
This week’s challenge on Pals Paper Arts is a colour challenge and I must admit, this one had me stumped for a while. I could do any two of the three purples, but add in a third and I just wasn’t sure where to put it. My original ideas for the sketch were floored as they just didn’t seem to work, but introducing a hint of gold seemed to make… Read More »

I thought I would share with you my latest creation and the inspiration behind my winning card on the recent PPA challenge. This was my card and you can read about how I made it here. Baby Finn arrived early Thursday morning and is already a huge hit with his older siblings (and his parents!) as you can see. I’m hoping to get back in my craft room soon and will… Read More »
I’ve had a few requests for instructions on my door on the card I posted for the Stampin’ Creative Blog Hop on Saturday so have snapped a few pics and hope it makes sense to you all. You can see the original card here. So I took my piece of Whisper White card, my oval framelits, my Big Shot and my magnetic platform – this is great when you… Read More »
Welcome everyone to our Blog Hop for March. You may have arrived from Pip’s blog and if so, a very warm welcome to you. This month our theme is Masking and I’ve added my own Easter theme as we are so close to Easter Sunday. My first card is quite a classic, clean and simple card, using our ready-made notelet sets. These are a great size and very handy for… Read More »
Last week, I held my Sale-a-bration Final Fling party. This was a free party for anyone who had joined my team during SAB, or who had spent £150 with me during SAB or hosted an event for during the three months of SAB. I made all my attendees a little gift using the gorgeous Something Borrowed suite of DSP, lace trim and embellishments. It was a scissor charm in one… Read More »
I recently held our monthly team get-together. We usually get together once a month to craft, chat, and swap ideas and inspiration. I wanted to show you the swaps that my talented team made to share. It’s a little picture heavy so I’ve reduced the size of the photos just so this post is not too hard to read. Although my details are on the photos, these cards are entirely… Read More »
Apologies for my lack of recent posts, last week was a little manic!! I should have (slightly!) more time this week so hope to remedy the lack of posts, firstly with this one. I was nominated by Tracy Elsom in Canada to be part of the Creative Blog Hop. I came across Tracy’s work through Pinterest, I think, and I cased a card that I fell in love with last… Read More »

I promised to show you some of the swaps from our team night last week. First of all, here’s mine. I love this Sale-a-bration set – FREE with any purchase of £45!

I have a project to share with you today using the Crazy about You stamp set combined with some FREE Sale-a-bration paper. I’ve CASE’d this project from US demo Ronda Wade (CASE – stands for Copy and Share Everything – something we’re very proud of in Stampin’ Up circles). However, Ronda used a DSP on her card that I didn’t have. Yet, I really liked the Mossy Meadow scalloped… Read More »

This time it was a sketch challenge so we have to come up with a card following the elements in the sketch. I hope it’s ok but I flipped the sketch and did… Read More »

I’ve used the gorgeous Hello You Thinlits – which incidentally come in… Read More »
