I have an anniversary card with pastels using the Always in my Heart bundle. At the end of my Soft Pastel series which you can see HERE and HERE, I discovered even more ways to apply pastels. This time I used Stampin’ Up!’s new Plenty of Patterns Decorative Masks. Unfortunately the photo doesn’t do the […]

Clean and simple – less is more
I’m a great advocate of clean and simple cards and firmly believe that sometimes less is more. Too often I feel I’m short changing people if I don’t put more effort into a project, particularly when making card.

Clean and Simple card – Pretty Perennials
I’m sharing a clean and simple card made with Pretty Perennials today. It always makes me sad when we have to say farewell to something I’ve fallen in love with. Pretty Perennials retires at the end of June, so I thought I better give it an airing one last time. The card base and top […]

Happy Sunday – I have a clean, simple floral card to share today. This will be a short quick post, as I am sure you have better things to do now that lock down is easing and we’re able to have family/friends to visit. My daughter and her brood are coming to stay and I […]
