Give me an alphabet die set anytime – I love them! Even better is one that includes the numerals as well! Not only that, there are multiple dies for more popular letters! I show you two ways to use the Stamparatus for a technique called “hinge” stamping. The one with red and blue stripes is […]

In Good Taste Suite
Happy Sunday! At time of writing, lock down was gently easing. We were allowed a little more freedom. However social distancing was still the buzz word, and we could interact with friends/family in outdoor spaces. So there is reason to be happy! This card celebrates the people we love from the In Good Taste Suite […]
Birds & Branches Bundle
Having shielded up until 30 June, I am looking forward to being able to explore further afield! Open fields, hearing bird song and communing with nature beckons and I can’t wait!

A Good Man with something new
Eek! I suddenly realised that Father’s Day in the UK is on 21st June! I had to reshuffle all my posts and create 2 new videos for masculine cards this week! Do you remember “A Good Man” stamp set from last year? It hasn’t dated and I dug it out with a refresh! I partially […]
