Some of my club ladies requested I show them how to make flowers that would be suitable to use on scrapbooking pages for their next class. So in the month of June, the theme was making flowers using punches. I’m not sure if anyone else has come up with this idea, it happened quite by accident. The label halves […]

WOYWW #107
Hello again to all you WOYWWers – seems ages since I checked in last. I promised to show you the carousel when I finished it so here it is finally – had to remake the base as the darn thing wouldn’t stay upright – the centre “pole” I mean and then the “umbrella” part went […]
Father’s Day Gift Album & card
As promised, here are the other photos of the pages in my Father’s Day gift album. On the front cover, I titled it “Grandpa’s Brag Book”. The papers I used are Stampin’ Up!’s Love Letter DSP (page 89 in the main idea book & catalogue). The letters were die cut from the Timeless Junior Alphabet […]

I don’t think there’s any danger of that because his work doesn’t allow it as it’s an infringement on company policy so he won’t be able to anyway. {If you want a […]
Progress Report on my Carousel
Remember the carousel I started a few weeks back and displayed on WOYWW here . Well, this is mark 1, the base, but the centre pole wouldn’t stay upright so I had to start again! Here is the new improved base which is much sturdier. I recycled the doily, re-enforced the base of the pole (lollipop sticks) […]
Wedding Sweet
Just a very quick card to share with you on Sunday – I’ve only just acquired this stamp set – I had resisted it for so long, but after much proscratinating decided it was a set that could be used for other things besides a wedding. This could be a congratulatory card for an anniversary. […]
