I was in two minds whether to share this birthday card I made for a very special young lady who celebrated her 18th birthday recently because some of the products I used are retired stamps and dies. I’m at a crossroads with my crafting/blogging. I was tidying my craftroom and I got upset whilst putting my […]
Earlier this month I made a huge box that I named THE Whopper of a box because it was 12″ x 3-1/8″ x 3-1/8″. You can find the tutorial for the box here. I needed a box this big for some Vintage Style Glass Bottles that I bought on the Hobbycraft website. I bought a […]
After all the snow we have had recently I am so ready for Spring, are you? My rainbow of flowers card shows how ready I am. The card was made for the Inspire.Create.Challenge #14. When I saw this sketch the idea for this card came to me straight away so I went into my craftroom […]
These heat embossed birthday cards are so pretty and they are a great way to use up some of those smaller pieces of DSP we all keep hold of. The Happy Wishes stamp set is a fantastic stamp set to have in your collection of craft goodies, it’s such a shame that it will be […]
Yesterday I was in the mood to make some boxes so I had a rummage through my inspiration drawer. As soon as I spotted the Charlie Body Spray I knew what I wanted to make. I hadn’t made a half cracker box for quite a while and they are so pretty. I had several sheets […]
They say a photo never captures the true beauty and that is so true with the 2 cards I have today, they really do look stunning in real life. I’m loving the Happy Wishes stamp set, it’s a 2 box stamp set that is full of great sentiments.
Everything I make with the Springtime Foils DSP looks gorgeous and this hexagonal box is no exception, it looks amazing. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying I’m a great crafter I’m say it’s the DSP that does all the work for you. The thickness of this DSP is closer to cardstock than DSP and […]
For the last few weeks Geoff has had a cold and I thought it would be nice to make a masculine cover for his Kleenex Mansize tissues, any excuse to craft. Geoff likes his Real Ale and I thought the bottle caps paper in the Bubbles & Fizz DSP would be a perfect choice for […]
I LOVE covered notebooks, if I see them in a shop I have to take a look but they can be really expensive. It’s a lot cheaper to buy a pad, choose your own pretty paper and cover it yourself. I have been crafting for many years and during that time I have bought […]
I can’t believe we’re into the last few weeks of Sale-A-Bration already. Where did January and February go? I have to say we have had a fantastic choice of FREE Sale-A-Bration products from Stampin’ Up! this year and I have had LOTS of fun playing with the new stamps, DSP’s, pretty shimmery/sparkly Ribbons, thinlit dies and […]
