Hello and Merry Christmas to you all. Christmas can be a difficult time for many people, for all kinds of reasons, and that’s even more likely to be the case this year; when even more of us are separated from friends and family due to the global pandemic. So I wanted to take this opportunity […]
Hello everyone. Today’s card is one I’ve had in my mind to create for a while and only just got around to it. I thought the large leafy stamp from the Very Versailles stamp would look nice ‘growing’ over a painted brick wall and I reckon it does work… I hope you agree. I created […]
Hello everyone. Today’s #simplestamping card has been inspired by a product in the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue that launches on 3 June 2020; I’ve already fallen in love with the Forever Greenery suite. One of the many perks of being an independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrator is that we get to buy some of the […]

I love the combination of Smoky […]

No matter how often I use this technique I still marvel at the way the embossing powder melts and transforms into a lovely shiny image right in front of your eyes. Today’s card is monochrome and I’ve used […]
Hello. I enjoyed yesterday’s card for a sketch challenge so much that I decided to make another one. This time I’ve followed the layout set by Ian Potter in the Stampin’ For All Facebook group… I decided to use Pretty Peacock and Blackberry Bliss colours and the gorgeous Perennial Essence designer series paper and this […]
Hello and thanks for joining me. This week the lovely Patricia Smith has given us this sketch to use for the challenge in her ‘Crafty Stamping Club – Smiths Crafty Creations’ Facebook group… As I hadn’t used the lovely Rooted In Nature stamp set for a while I chose it for the main sentiment. I […]
