Stampin’ Up! Extravaganza Sale!
Easy, Autumnal Thank You Card.
The Painted Harvest stamp set from Stampin Up is stunning with its glorious sunflower images and is perfect for that Autumn feel we have right now. I have been using it oh so much. It is easy to overlook the gorgeous little acorn stamp that is part of that set too. So I thought I would make a quick card with it. I have used Whisper White card for my base and Early Espresso card stock for my layer with a top layer of Whisper White which is fantastic for stamping on. I have ... VIEW POST

They are clear plastic so quite safe. such a simple way to dress up a treat and looks really effective with ... VIEW POST
Case the Catalogue Challenge. Christmas Card.
I have a wintery card to share with you today. The papers in the Colour Theory stack have all sorts of distressed looks to them. This blue crackle glaze looks very wintery don't you think?! It was a simple card to put together once I had cut the snowflakes out on the big shot which was really a work of moments. The other side of this crackle glaze design is graduated colour ranging from deep blue right up to almost white, so you see how it looks like I ... VIEW POST
Hug In A Mug !
I just love this stamp set! It is perfect for making cards and tags that give a nice cosy feel especially when the weather outside is becoming decidedly Autumnal. The leaves are falling and hot chocolate is definitely on the menu. I took it along to my Coffee and Cards a few weeks ago to see what my lovely ladies who come along would make of it. Our first card we make at Coffee and Cards is one designed by me and then the ladies often go "free Style" for their other card. They did a great ... VIEW POST
