I had the incentive I needed to get back on track with my memory-keeping this week thanks to the Global Deisgn Project. Our challenge is to use Project Life by Stampin’ Up to create something whether it be a traditional scrapbook layout, a PL page or a card – I chose a PL layout. I used the Happy Times kit to document a family trip last summer where we camped in a… Read More »

If you arrived straight here, you are also very welcome and hope you are having a great Saturday so far. This month we have made ‘Summer lovin ‘ our theme and I thought I would show you a quick and easy card. I got the idea of the… Read More »
Thanks Dana for commenting and just for you – and Eileen too – here is the tutorial. I will warn you in advance, this is a pretty picture heavy post so bear with me! But I hope that it explains exactly how to recreate the card. Firstly cut your whisper white almost like a standard A6 card but leave one side a little longer – depending on how large you… Read More »
I decided it was high time I did another challenge and I thought I would try my hand at a graduation card for TGIF’s 3rd challenge. This is a fairly new challenge site, if you haven’t seen it yet, you can find it here. Here is my entry I decided to go with the colours I had for my own graduation (many moons ago!) which were Black, Gold and Purple… Read More »
It’s been a long time since I blogged – my little man is keeping me very busy – at all times of the day and night!! He just turned 4 weeks yesterday – where has the time gone?! Mind you, at this stage of the game, the days are blending into nights and back into days again – I had forgotten how exhausting the early days can be… but as… 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 »

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 »
Thank you for all the kind comments and your visits since Saturday’s Blog Hop. I feel confident enough in my endeavours to take part in another one 🙂 Today, I have a video direct from Stampin’ Up UK to share with you. It highlights the Little Letters thinlit dies. These are a great size for a card embellishment, or to add to a scrapbook page or a Project Life Spread.… Read More »
I am very excited to share my first Project Life pages with you. They are very basic and I’m sure I will look back at them in months to come and be shocked at how basic they really were (just like I do with my first cards). However, I just love the system. It really couldn’t be easier. You start off with a basic kit of pocket pages and a card collection… Read More »
I’m STILL waiting on my photo delivery!! It has shipped but they are still not here. If you read my last post, you’ll know how excited I am to finally get my life in order, so to speak, and join the scrapbooking revolution that is Project Life. But it’s going to have to wait another day as I have nothing to put in my pocket pages as yet. So, I’ll… Read More »
