Oooh – what a conundrum this title makes, but it describes what it is exactly. Perhaps I should decipher it so that it’s a little clearer. I made this card with a tiny equilateral stitched triangle die. The inspiration to create a fox image came from a quilt pattern, hence the “Fox card” part. These […]

Fancy Phrases & Fancy Tag Punch
Let me introduce you to the Fancy Phrases stamp set and Fancy Tag Topper Punch. The combination of script and uppercase fonts are fabulous as is the large floral stamp. I love having the ability to create my own Designer Series Paper (DSP) in whatever colour palette I choose. What do you think of this […]
Gather Together – Returning Fave
