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 fold easel card – Come Sail Away Suite
Of all the nautical themed stamp sets Stampin’ Up! has produced, this has got to be one of my favourites! Although I don’t have much blue in my wardrobe, it’s still one of my favourite colours. Pair Night of Navy with Sahara Sand makes me happy! I love the cut and emboss dies that coordinate […]
Lilypad Lake Bundle – pocket card
I thought for a change that I would do a pocket card so I could make use of the circle tab punch. Some items just don’t see the light of day and I’ve been meaning to take a look at the Lilypad Lake Bundle. Instead of doing the obvious which was with the heron and […]

Isn’t it cool that you can now make a gatefold card without worrying about measurements? Even better is the unique leaf and floral edges to make it even more special!

Around the World Seeing Double!!!
Sundays seem to come round so fast! This time next week I’ll be spending some quality time with my daughter and her family. On the Saturday though, we have a Regional Training day in Telford and I can barely contain my excitement! I’m hoping there’ll be some sneak peeks! I digress – I guess you’d […]
Salted Background Technique
I recently taught the Salted Background technique to my club ladies. I used Shimmery White card stock and spritzed it with water until it was quite damp. I added colour with an aqua painter in random directions using my ink pads as palettes to pick up colour. After that I sprinkled with a coarse salt […]
