I am very aware that it isn’t winter here in the Southern Hemisphere, although one day last week felt a little like winter was returning!!! I do love this paper and think I can put it to good use making some Christmas cards over the next few weeks. This week I am casing two cards […]
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 […]
This week I decided to create with the ‘Lovely and Sweet’ stamp bundle. This is a returning stamp set and is in the Annual catalogue. When it first came out in the previous catalogue, the DSP was in golds, browns and white and was really beautiful. I still have a little bit left! It was […]
After using ‘Bee my Valentine’ at a craft retreat earlier in the year, I decided to buy it, but haven’t used it a lot since. What I love about doing this weekly Facebook Live is that it has made me come out of my comfort zone and try out things I might not normally try […]
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 […]
