I made these cards quite a while ago and just remembered I haven’t shared them with you. It’s a very quick post as I’m running out the door, but if you let me know I can provide a tutorial for you. So here are my cards. I made a pink and a blue version – just in case – well, you never know and I like to be prepared!! Here… Read More »

We decided our theme this month would be to case projects in the new annual catalogue. Our catalogue, aside from being a full inventory of all the wonderful products we have, is also a fantastic idea book jammed full of inspiration for your crafting projects. CASE… Read More »

This week was my week of classes here at my craft room. Here are a couple of cards that we did on Technique Tuesday. I have seen lots of these style of cards across the internet recently and was really keen to give it a try. I’ve drawn inspiration from a whole range of ideas and colour combinations I’ve seen to come with something of my own. It really is… Read More »
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 »
A couple of nights ago, I decided to spend some time catching up with Project Life. I have several pages on the go at once and have over 600 photos to get through – this is pretty much covering the last 6 years of our life! I must say, I really enjoyed my time, and must set more time aside to catch up with it all. I got several pages… Read More »

If I haven’t convinced you on the merits of our brand new alcohol-based markers, Blendabilities, then perhaps this post might just do it! They honestly are so easy to use and the shades blend together so fluidly. But not only that, you can colour our rhinestones, pearls and ribbons too! As they are alcohol-based, it dries so quickly, so no inky fingers! Take a look… What a beautiful, vibrant, Pumpkin… Read More »

That’s right, our first range of Blendabilities are available to order right now. Before I rave on about good they are, I must admit to not having used any other sort of alcohol based marker. However, for a complete novice, I did find them extremely easy to use and the colour is so fluid and easy to blend. In your pack, there are three markers, a light, a medium and… Read More »

A lot of our current stock is… 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 »
