Whoops! Another project using the Ornate Garden Suite. I told you I couldn’t put it down! It’s a great suite from the new Annual Catalogue. Here I’m highlighting part of the Ornate Style Stamp Set with Stampin’ Blends. The base of this project is Purple Posy and Highland Heather. Corners are rounded with the Detailed
It’s great when I’m asked to create special cards. Especially when the recipient is a regular class attendee. This was a particularly interesting request as I was asked for THREE cards for a special Birthday for the same person! I know that the lucky lady loves yellows, oranges and bright colours, so I immediately headed
It’s that time of year when my friend who likes all things pink and sparkly celebrates her Birthday. This year, I made her some pink and sparkly daisies. It’s no coincidence that the design is very much like this project I shared the other day. In fact, I made the cards at the same time.
Two of my regular class attendees celebrated birthdays over the past few days. I reached for the To A Wild Rose Stamp Set and Die Bundle to create a card. As they aren’t seeing each other, I made two identical cards using Page 141 of the Annual Catalogue for my inspiration. This was my first
At my recent BYO Stamps virtual class, the attendees made a card inspired by this Positive Thoughts project. BYO Stamps is for those who have stamp sets, but aren’t sure what to do with them. I provide the design, and the attendees then create a project using the items they have at home, using the

My final project for the Bugs, Beasts & Butterflies Class was this cute Bee Thankful project. He was stamped using the Stamparatus in Gray Granite Ink onto Very Vanilla Cardstock. The layers are corner rounded using the Detailed Trio Punch. Using Stampin’ Blend Combo Packs in Calypso Coral, Balmy Blue and Mint Macaron, the ‘thanks’
Today I’m sharing the card I sent to another friend who is going through a tough patch. This was sent before the pandemic and the need to sent positive thoughts now seems even more appropriate. I made and sent this at the same time as this project, so you’ll notice some similarities. I’ve once again
At last week’s Card & Cuppa class, I based the project on this one, but used a trio of purples instead. I used Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape, plus Purple Posy in place of Whisper White/Vanilla. For the background stamping, an image from the Gallery Grunge Stamp Set provided the detail. As with the other
A couple of friends are going through some tough times at the moment. To let them know I was thinking of them, I sent them a ‘hug in an envelope’. Here is one of the cards I made using the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set. The Positive Thoughts Stamp Set is from the Mini Catalogue and
