At long last I can share this! It was the first thing that caught my eye in the Autumn/Winter catalogue and it’s been under wraps for well nigh 2 months! It was too soon to post in August and November seemed just the right time for an Advent Calendar Project. What’s more it’s in Kit […]

Happy Halloween
Happy Halloween! EEEEK!!!!! It seemed like only yesterday when I started my Countdown to Halloween series and already it is upon us! So it’s “Boo to You” from this trio for the last time before they’re archived for this year. Don’t you just love those googly eyes? The critters were stamped in Tuxedo Black memento […]
Halloween Countdown Series #6 of 6 – Spooktacular Bash potions
This is episode 6, in my Six Week Countdown to Halloween Series for 2019, and it is with a little sadness that I am saying farewell to this year’s Halloween goodies. I’ve enjoyed playing with the sets and can’t wait to see what Stampin’ Up! will have in store for us for next year! The […]
Wildly Happy and Free style painting!
Wildly Happy and free style painting in today’s Sunday blogpost.

At time of writing, the Sprinkles finally got the green light from German Customs and they are available for sale […]
Band Together – Butterfly Gala
Hiya! Happy Sunday! Don’t you just love it when something moves on a card? Last week I featured the Cuckoo for You Bundle and it occurred to me that this push pull mechanism need not be confined to being used exclusively on the clock. If you have anything that flies, you could make its wings […]
Christmas Countdown #4 of 12 – Perfectly Plaid Bundle
I have another Christmas card for you this week using the Perfectly Plaid Bundle which is from the Wrapped in Plaid Suite on pages 12-14 of the new Autumn/Winter catalogue. The Wrapped in Plaid specialty Designer Series Papers are gorgeous, if you like tartan patterns, but the reverse side is equally pretty too with christmas […]
Halloween Countdown #Wk 4 of 6 Boo to You – Decorative Masks
Boo to you!!! He! He! It’s the name of the stamp set! I am tickled pink sharing this week’s Halloween project with you! Rather than waste card stock, I try out my crazy ideas on copy paper first, it’s less painful than wasting precious card stock, but this came together REALLY easily! A big match […]
