French Foliage and Lovely as a Tree for Paper Players #161

Hi Everyone. Happy Saturday. Sandy is our fabulous hostess this week and she is standing in for me whilst I take a little break! The theme should be appropriate for most of us this week! :-) Now... all of my blog readers who have been around for a little while will know that French Foliage is my overall, number one, go to - Fall set :-) I knew I wanted to use it as a background, but wasn't sure what I was going to add on the label with my sentiment. Ah. Ha! I then remembered the perfect stamp in... Read more →

OWH Update

Hi Everyone.... I apologize for my absence, but I have been very busy with the cards for OWH. I have prepped, sorted, checked for loose embellishments, stamped the back of the cards with the OWH stamp for those that weren't already stamped, photographed, checked for inner liners and put into boxes hundreds... yes... hundreds of cards and I haven't finished yet! I also haven'treceived all of the ones that you are sending. (insert huge smile here!) I cannot tell you how gorgeous these cards are. I know you will appreciate them when you see them and there will be so... Read more →

Rev Up the Fun for Paper Players #160

Truly Grateful one layer

Hi Everyone. As it's a one layer card challenge across at the Paper Players this week. I thought I would add another one to the mix. I am in love with Truly Grateful and the background stamp means that you don't even have to put down a mask, as it is already the perfect size and doesn't need masking! On a personal note: I wanted to share a few photos with you of our dinner on Sunday. We got to eat outside on the deck and we are so loving it: It's warm, without being overpowering; there is a slight... Read more →

Winter Frost Star for Retrosketches

Hi Everyone... very quick post for you tonight. It's after 7 and I haven't finished work yet and just took a quick break to feed the pussycats and update my blog :-) There's a great sketch across at retrosketches this week, it's really unusual and forced me to really think outside of my normal box. It took me a while to work out what I wanted to do and I wandered off to my crafting storage cupboard and decide to look through my DSP to see if I could find any inspiration. I came across the Winter Frost Specialty DSP... Read more →
