Stunning Springtime Foils!

I can’t get enough of these Springtime Specialty Foils!  Here’s a super duper quick easy project!  The papers dress up these silver gable boxes to perfection – fabulous for wedding favours or a christening or simply “just because” – does there have to be a reason? There’s barely 2 weeks left of Sale-A-Bration before they’re […]

Happy Mother’s Day!

Happy Mothering Sunday!  As I get older year by year, it brings home the fact that not all of us are lucky enough to still have our Mums.  So today in the UK, this is a day to honour and remember not only mothers who walk the Earth with us here and now, but also […]

We love the new-ish Spring/Summer catalogue, but there are some lovely things in the Annual […]

Forgotten gem – Mini Treat Bag Thinlits

I’ve forgotten about the mini treat bag dies and had so much fun re-acquainting myself with them!  Just as well the Springtime Foils were a freebie from the 2nd Sale-A-Bration release!  The foiled DSP are quite heavyweight and great for making boxes – and treat bags, of course!  They are single sided, so when cutting […]
