Father’s Day is just round the corner so I am continuing the masculine theme this week with an easy masculine card with Wildlife Wonder. Something old with something new, so for the new, I’ve chosen the Essentials Nested Dies. Also, I’ve used the gorgeous Earthern Elegance 12″x 12″ Designer Series Papers and for the old, […]

Embossing – Tech 4 Stampers Blog Hop
The theme is embossing for June’s Tech 4 Stampers Blog Hop. It’s a miracle that I made this one. I managed to steer clear of getting Covid all through the pandemic being classified in the clinically extremely vulnerable category. Since the restrictions have lifted we have all become complacent and I caught it from hubby […]
Thank you card with Earthen Textures
Happy Sunday! In my Top Tip Tuesday slot on my YouTube channel, I demonstrated how to create a stay put bow on this card. In the original card, I had masked the Pretty Peacock vase so that the tall Copper Clay vase would give the illusion of being behind it. Not wanting to waste the […]
Father’s Day Tackle box card
I took my inspiration for a Father’s Day Tackle box card from Stampin’ Up!’s samples in their May 2023 – April 2024 Annual catalogue.

By the way, there is a coordinating punch with the Alphabest photopolymer stamp set but I […]

Episode #1 will be published Wednesday 21 June, episode #2 on Friday 23 June, episode […]
Embossed Countryside Blossoms card
Here’s a quick, easy, embossed Countryside Blossoms card. The Countryside Blossoms embossing folder is a standard one so requires just the pair of platform 3 and platform 1 – omitting Platform 2 which is the thin die adaptor. It is part of the Countryside Inn Suite Collection on pages 63-64 of the May 2023-April 2024 […]
Lattice card with Cheerful Daisies
I haven’t been able to stop playing with the Cheerful Daisies bundle and this time I made a lattice card or trellis card, depending on which side of the pond you are. This card is unique in that you get to see both sides of the patterned paper or DSP (Designer Series Paper). How to […]
