Did you know that you can make a box using the Rectangle Stitched Framelits dies? I’m always looking for different ways to use my stash. Remember the Stitched Shapes Framelits set – I used the square dies to cut rectangles, and now that we have the new Rectangle Stitched Framelits, I won’t have to anymore! […]
Part of My Story – watch out for a sneak peek!
This is a simply stamped card – returning to my roots and going back to basics with limited supplies. Are you a paper hoarder? I used to be, but once you get over that barrier, you won’t have any qualms about cutting it up, because paper is a consumable item, and if you use up […]
All Geared Up
At time of writing, we were seeing our son on the weekend to take him out for a celebratory birthday lunch. I still can’t quite believe we have a son who is now in his early 40s!!! I wanted a quick and simple card which would reflect his love of cars, and in Stampin’ Up!’s […]
New!!! Second Release Sale-a-bration items!

Hello Cupcake
Happy Sunday! In my January team training day, this was just one of the many projects I showcased. It’s amazing when you get back to basics how stamping and punches can still create a card you can be proud of. The materials I used were the Bitty Blooms Punch pack (4 mini punches), 2 ink […]
Geared Up Garage Bundle Valentine
I really struggle at Christmas Time to use non-traditional colours – but have no problem pushing the boat out and experimenting at a different time of the year. My thoughts have been veering to Valentine cards of late, before you know it, the 14th will have come and gone so I thought I better get […]
