Long Slim card Boho Indigo product medley

Long Slim Card

Hello, how are you? In the UK, we are currently in our second lock down until December 2. At time of writing the USA elections were in full swing and Biden is now the President Elect. I try to stay apolitical and keep my views to myself so I stay away from social media platforms […]

Nothing Better than 40 birthday card

Nothing’s Better Than 40!

My baby turns 40 this year – my, oh my – doesn’t it make me feel positively ANCIENT! This stamp set wasn’t on my radar at all. However, given that my daughter loves a cocktail or two, and not to mention chocolate, I thought….why not? With lockdown, we haven’t seen any family since Christmas. Lockdown […]

zany zebras rainbow plus sneak peek

Zany Zebras plus Sneak Peek!

Wouldn’t you call these cute Zebras zany when you see them? They are the cutest ever! I found it difficult to visualise them in any other colour than black stripes. It just went against the grain so instead, I put the colour in the background! It’s the best way to use up scraps. As I […]

The thought of “freedom” inspired this card. The stamps are photo- polymer. They are clear so you can see exactly where you’re stamping. To […]

Teeny One Sheet Wonder – Flowers for Every Season

I did it !!! Four unique cards made from one sheet of 6 x 6 DSP ! Yesterday I published a cutting guide on a one sheet wonder over on my Facebook page. It was certainly a challenge because I didn’t like the reverse side of the paper! I solved the problem by introducing mat […]

Centre step card Stampin Up Outdoor Barbecue

Outdoor Barbecue – Centre Step Fold card

With the warmer weather approaching, our thoughts turn to barbecues! The supermarkets are filled with marinaded barbecue meat and fresh salads and it means I get a day off from cooking! I don’t know if it’s true of your household, but it seems to be a “man” thing to get the barbecue going so I […]
