By my own admission, I am not the most technically gifted person in the world. I had photographed a few projects to share with you while on a recent trip back to Ireland, but while there I was unable to transfer them to a blog post. GGRRRRR!!! I could blame my internet provider but as my mother always said, a bad workman always blames his tools!! (Though to be fair,… Read More »

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 »

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.

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 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.
