Embossed Father's Day Card

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 […]

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 […]

Clean and Simple Card Stampin Up Witty-cisms by Elaine Harding

Witty-cisms – Looking Sharp

What do you do with a Saguaro cactus? They’re prickly and not exactly pretty looking plants. They grow in the Sonoran Desert in Arizona where we saw them up close and personal and only then did I appreciate that these tree like cacti can grow up to 40 ft in height, or more and are […]

bespoke box with Stampin Up Witty-cisms tag

Witty-cisms Cute Thank you Berry Much box

By the Dock – Polaroid effect card

We’ve been bemoaning the fact that there aren’t enough stamp sets for the boys, but there have been quite a few new ones in recent times. Take this “By the Dock” stamp set for example. I think it’s suitable for everyone, especially if you love tinkering by the water, or live on the coast. The […]

Ornate Style with Peaceful Moments

  I  have another sample I made to show case the Ornate Garden Suite.  Being a Demo, we get to play with this newly released Ornate Style Bundle even earlier! I made this birthday card for one of my team whose birthday was in March which appeared on my instagram account a few weeks ago.  […]

Timeless Tulips with Ornate Borders

A card made with Timeless Tulips and also with Ornate Borders! Does that mean it’s Spring and Easter too? Hope you’re all feeling OK and settling into the new “norm”. It will pass, but in the meantime I hope this post will brighten your day. Just a little something to add some sunshine to your […]
