While Father’s Day has passed, I was holding off on posting this to use in this month’s Blog Hop – but then I forgot to sign up for this month’s challenge. So here it is as a stand alone post. I used the Beautiful World DSP and dies and Cinnamon Cider and Whisper White cardstock. […]
Welcome to our Blog Hop #21. This month we had a colour challenge using the new In Colors. I decided to use Misty Moonlight, Just Jade and Bumblebee inks on my first card. The card base is Misty Moonlight and the first layer is Basic Grey. The top layer is Whisper White. I stamped off […]
Welcome to our Blog Hop #20. This month we had a sketch and I have done two similar but different cards using some papers and stamps from the new Annual Catalogue. The first card uses ‘Forever Greenery Suite’. I used Pear Pizzazz and Shaded Spruce for the background layers and a piece of the Forever […]
My daughter gifted me a box of the now retired Everything is Rosy set and I had never got around to making cards with it. Last night I invited two friends around and we made some cards with the set. There were lots of little scraps left over so I decided to have a go […]

I am sad to see the Parisian Blossoms Suite go at the end of May. However, some of the components will continue to be available as the Forever Blossoms stamp set and Cherry Blossoms dies are carrying over. I used the Parisian Blossoms DSP for the main part of the easel card. I had also […]
Recently we had a virtual Stamp Camp where we created cards in our own craft room instead of physically meeting together. It was an opportunity to try out some ideas as well as have heaps of fun. I had been looking at some cards posted by Gail Ellis. She has beautiful style in her card […]
