I simply adore Stampin’ Up!’s dist-INK-tive stamps as they add to their collection. The stamps adds depth and photographic realism to the images and when you create a card with it, it makes YOU and your creativity look good! lol! Who wouldn’t want to take credit for that? Seriously, credit where credit is due – […]

Back On Your Feet
This stamp set called “Back On Your Feet” made me smile when I saw it. Stampin’ Up! have scalloped notecards and matching envelops – 20 in a pack in four colours.

I know for some of you that early September may be a tad too early for all things Christmas – my 12 weeks Countdown to Christmas projects usually begins in the last week of September, so I thought I would share more of the See a Silhouette cards I made. I have been waiting for […]
Cuckoo for You – Smooth Sailing dies
