Every year I create a card inspired by the Wimbledon tennis tournament. As the championships have been cancelled due to the pandemic, last week’s Card & (Your) Cuppa project is still inspired by Wimbledon. Every year I usually get groans from the attendees as some of them don’t like tennis. However, as I always explain,
How is it July already? Where has the year gone? For my recent BYO Stamps class, all of the projects used the same stamp set. Today, I’m sharing how we made stripes from the Waterfront Stamp Set. This is similar to a project I made previously, just with different colours. I like monochrome projects, but
Today I’m sharing another Ornate Garden Suite Card. My inspiration is from Page 67 of the new Annual Catalogue. This Suite isn’t something I would normally be drawn to, especially as the images lend themselves to colouring.

As a big fan of monochrome projects, I just couldn’t help but design one for a BYO Stamps Class. So, here’s some monochrome using Positive Thoughts and the matching Nature’s Thoughts Dies. These are both in the new Annual Catalogue. This is such a simple project to create by just using one stamp and one
For one of my recent BYO Stamp classes, I created 3 designs around gaps. We had creating the gap, filling the gap and covering the gap. This project is all about filling the gap. However, with this one, you do actually create the gap too before filling it! I used Whisper White for the base
Due to the Bank Holiday, there wasn’t a Card & (Your) Cuppa class last week, so I’m sharing another project with you instead. This is a Birthday Card I made for a Lily Pad Stamper – a member of my Stampin’ Up! Team. As they are a fan of pinks and subtle colours, I used
