This is the final sample for Sail Away. I ran a piece of Pacific Point through the Big Shot with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder. In keeping with the masculine theme, again minimal layers using fairly reserved colours and no ribbon. Recipe: Stamp: Sail Away, Plane & Simple Ink: Pacific Point Papers: Pacific Point, Sahara […]

At Convention last year, Pam Morgan showed us how to make this cute litte folder. I altered the dimensions of the folder (which you can see here) so that the bulk of 4 cards being put in the folder would sit better in it. Today’s Sunday Share is an updated version. In my humble opinion, this would make a perfect Teacher’s present […]

Recipe: Stamp: Sail Away, Plane & Simple Ink: […]

Sail Away #1
I’ve always loved the water and in a previous life, we were surrounded by it having lived and worked in Hong Kong for several years – even my children were born out there! We also used to own a dinghy and spent many happy hours bobbing up and down the South China Sea. So this […]

The theme for my most recent workshop was to do masculine cards. This meant I had to do a whole new series of samples to fit the brief. The one above was created for the launch of the Mini several months ago and I used crystal effects to add a 3D effect to the motorbike and sprinkled […]
Cute by the Inch – Level 2 Hostess set
My Sunday share with you today is this dinky little set I made as a Hostess Gift this month using the Elegant Soiree DSP. It features the milk carton Bigz L die and is just perfect to use as a gift box for these little tea lights. You can find other possibilities for using this die here . […]
