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 […]

Tasteful Textures & Tasteful Label dies

Tasteful Touches and Dies

This stamp set and coordinating dies are from the “In Good Taste” Suite on page 122-124 of the new Annual Catalogue. It’s amazing that even though the stamp set only has one floral image, all the accessories in this suite compliments and enhances it in so many ways. The two page spread shows so many […]

Forever Fern Gold Foil Laser Cuts

Forever Fern with Forever Gold Laser-Cuts

I am so glad I invested in this bundle. There is an abundance of foliage to choose from whether as a stamp, or as a die cut, there are endless possibilities for creating cards, or adorning a Memory & More album, decorating a box and better still, it isn’t gender specific! Today I am combining […]

Blossoms in Bloom In Colors

Blossoms in Bloom and new In Colors

Have you had a chance to familiarise yourself with the new In Color names? It never ceases to amaze me how they think these up! During the pre-order period, the new In Color inks were not available so I did a work around. The “shading” effect was cut from Very Vanilla card stock. To work […]

double faux box 3D

Faux double box with Parisian Blossoms

I love this faux double box – it gives the illusion of being a box within a box. The papers I used are Parisian Blossoms DSP. I cannot claim ownership of this fabulous creation – that goes to a Demonstrator from Germany – Petra Kaeß so thank you Petra for the inspiration. I used the […]

clean simple card, stampin up by the dock stamps

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 […]
