I had to delve way back into my archives for this double ended twist treat box which I made in October 2015 as part of my 12 week Countdown to Christmas Series in 2015!!! My upline Amanda had sent me some materials to make a minimum of 4 projects from the Magnolia Suite as a […]
Floral Essence – All About the Paper!
Oh my giddy aunt! I love the Impressionist Period, so when I saw these hand-painted impressionistic images on the Perennial Essence DSP, I thought I’d died and gone to heaven!!! So this is all about the paper – I “framed” one of the flowers (the photo doesn’t do it justice) and stamped a couple more […]
Happy Father’s Day
Happy Father’s Day to the men in our lives both present and past. I’m posting this later than usual to give hubby a chance to see his card before it goes public! I couldn’t decide which stamp set to use. I liked the font from the Varied Vases set for “You are simply the best!” […]

A Good Man meets Waterfront
Hi there! I’m capitalising on the fact that there’s only a week to go before Father’s Day, whether it’s your Dad, or significant other to tell them how much you appreciate them and this is a great excuse to use a brand new stamp set from the new Annual Catalogue called “A Good Man”! I […]
New Catalogue Highlights
Day 2 of the new catalogue featuring New Catalogue Highlights. What do you think of it so far? Today’s video is a quick tour of the highlights. I’ve made some samples of my personal favourites. As usual it’s difficult to narrow it down. If you’re like me, you want it all! lol! I really tried […]
