This week I have decided to use ‘Country Flowers’ for my cards. This is part of a suite called ‘Country Woods’, which includes the birdhouse. There are lots of lovely cards available to demonstrate this set. I decided to case a card from Splitcoast Stampers called Flowersbyrazidazi. The card uses the colours, Petal Pink, Smoky […]
What a cute set this is!! I love the whimsy feel it gives and the sweet animals and sentiments. I challenged myself to use this one this week. It has been a tough week, as I have been feeling a bit unwell, and I really had to motivate myself to prepare for my Timeout Thursday […]
When I was at OnStage in Melbourne earlier this year, I won Frames and Flowers DSP in the Prize Patrol. It has been sitting in my file and I finally I have got around to using it. Sometimes I use the 12 x 12 papers but leave the die-cut designs languishing in the bag!! This […]

For the past nine weeks, I have taken the journey to doing a Facebook Live called Timeout Thursday, and last week, I showed this sampler during one of the sessions and it has also been on Demonstrator Planning Place. Several folks have asked for measurements and I am finally getting around to adding them to […]
