White on White...




I saw this effect somewhere, can't recall which site, but thought that it was quite effective.  White on white butterflies and then some stamped off blackberry bliss butterflies.  I am in love with this colour and only recently treated myself to it! 

Hope you enjoy and please share your creations.

Happy crafting

Teacher Thank you cards...the first ones...





Well the school term is nearly over and rather than leave things to the last minute, I thought I'd get organised.  My boys love to read and I thought that this card was great to highlight that - what do you think.

A really simple card to make! A few punches, a die and some card and paper - so easy.



To purchase the tools to make it just click the links below, or if you would rather buy a finished product get in touch.

Happy crafting - and keep cool.

Beautiful Butterflies







I just love this set - and best of all the stamp set and thinlit set come as a bundle and that saves you money. Also it comes in all three of Stampin' Up! stamp types - wood, clear and photopolymer.  I usually choose wood stamps, however in this case I actually chose the photopolymer set as it is so much easier for positioning the images as they are see through.

This decorated notebook will be winging its way to one of the teachers at school for and end of year thank you.


If you would like to either buy the finished product or the tools that enable you to make it yourself just let me know.

So pretty and yet so useful!

Happy crafting

I've just put the photopolymer links below but if you would like the direct link to all the stamp types just let me know.

A little boys dream

My youngest son has just turned 2, and although it is a bit late, here is his birthday card - isn't it cute!





So simple to make and although these stamps are no longer available as of today there are a whole lot more cute stamps in the new catalogue - yes the new catalogue is now live!  Check out the link to see the online version or contact me for a copy.

Oh, by the way the punch for the carriages is still available and a fantastic one if I say so myself.

Happy Crafting
