This is a strange title for this blog, but it is the combination of two stamp bundles – one from the mini catalogue Jan- June 2025 and the Sale-A-Bration brochure (free with a $200 purchase). I’m not into Valentine’s Day , but have been exploring other ways to use the Heart Shaped bundle, so hope […]
In the new mini catalogue which you can order from until June, there is a beautiful suite called Floral Delight. It includes stamp set, dies, two DSP kinds – one of which is vellum, daffodil delight ribbon and cute mini bees!! It is bright and cheerful yet elegant. This week I used it in my […]
Welcome to this week’s blog!!! It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas! In fact my eldest granddaughter was telling me on the weekend that she has made her Christmas playlist and is already listening to it!!! In our family, we love Christmas and the traditions around it and most of celebrating the birth […]
This stamp set is being offered online only and it would be easy to overlook it, if you are not an online shopper! However, you shouldn’t! It is a beautiful bundle ( and I love the WHOLE bundle!!!) It is called the ‘Seasons of Green and Gold’ suite. Today I will share three cards with […]
It is sometimes strange how you can overlook a stamp set in the catalogue and suddenly you are inspired to make something with it and you don’t have it!! This happened to me and my friend brought hers to retreat so I could use it. I also put it on my shopping list and it […]

Here in Australia, we are into Spring, while in the Northern Hemisphere, they are in Autumn! However, I thought I’d use this suite today. I have had it for a few weeks and finally at a craft retreat last weekend I had time to play around with it. The DSP is quite strong in colour, […]
This has been another ‘shelf sitter’ – until now!! I’m not sure how many times I have looked at it and thought about doing something with it and finally!!!! All of these cards have been CASED, but I have added my own touch to them. The first one uses the nest. As a child, living […]
I do love this suite from the Annual Catalogue – probably my favourite from it!! I love the DSP AND the stamp set and dies. I wanted to try something different with scraps of DSP, so I came up with these three cards. My first one uses the DSP and silhouette made by one of […]
This week I used a set that has been sitting on my shelf for a few months called ‘Thoughtful Expressions’. There are beautiful and elegant dies that go with this set. It is a returning stamp from last year’s catalogue. I have been fascinated by hummingbirds and found lots of interesting facts about them, but […]
