I have been so busy with my ‘By the Bay’ suite that I have neglected using some of my other stamp sets!! I got out my Fancy Flora Suite yesterday, and I am now enjoying creating with this so much. I love the DSP and the stamp set. There are no sentiments with this stamp […]
Stamper’s Anonymous Blog Hop #52
Our Blog Hop #52 is a colour challenge using Pale Papaya, Parakeet Party and Pool Party. I have had a swatch of all three cardstock colours sitting on my table for a few days and kept looking at them – trying to get inspiration!! Today – a little before the blog is due, I had […]
By the Bay 3D card
I have had lots of fun playing with the By the Bay suite! For a week or so, I had this idea in my head to make a 3D card and when I woke up last Friday, I went straight to my craft table and put the ideas into action! I wanted to create a […]
Stamper’s Anonymous Blog Hop #51
This month we have had a new challenge that I don’t think we have done before! It is called ‘Tic Tac Toe’. Like the game you need to get three in a row – horizontally, vertically or diagonally. I have used Heat Embossing, Designer Series Paper and Dies for my challenge. Two of my grandchildren […]
By The Bay 12″ x 12″ project
When I saw ‘By The Bay’ suite at Onstage, I was immediately drawn to it. I love blues and I could see so many possibilities. I love watching the waves and sitting by the beach reflecting on the magnificence of the scene in front of me (in all weathers!), so I really wanted to make […]
By The Bay
I have fallen head over heels in love – with By the Bay Suite. I am not sure there is anything in this suite that I don’t like – except that maybe 12 x 12 DSP would have been great!!! Our team has had a swap challenge this past couple of weeks. We could use […]
Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #50
Welcome to 2023 and our first blog hop of 2023! Happy New Year to everyone! Our blog challenge this month was a sketch. As many of you know I grew up in Northern Ireland on a farm, and at times I miss the Friesian cows that my dad had on the farm. Somehow they made […]
Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #48
Our challenge this month was a layout challenge. While I was at camp last weekend, I created this card. The base is Balmy Blue and I added two layers of Snowflake Speciality Vellum with a strip of Silver foil in between. The sentiment is from Hope and Peace and was stamped in Versamark and heat […]
Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #47
This month our challenge was to use the three colours – Sweet Sorbet, Blushing Bride and Old Olive. On Mother’s Day, my daughter made me a beautiful card using Tulips. Sometimes it is easy to pass over stamps that had been in a previous catalogue and forget how beautiful they are. I took the idea […]
Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #46
Welcome to our Blog Hop for September. This month we had a layout challenge. I have fallen in love with the Texture Chic Suite. It is really versatile, as you can use it for any season of the year. Since we are coming into the warmer days (hopefully!), I thought I’d make a ‘beachy’ card. […]
