Essence of Love


Hello Stampers,
I'm sharing another card I made a little while ago. I cased it from Zindors's blog. I love what she does. I need to work on my brayer technique. This set is retired, it was in a mini-catalogue last year. Hope you like. :) I'm hoping to post something for you tomorrow but I'm going to Ikea and don't know if I'll have time to. Our basement is just about finished and I'm moving my huge craft table downstaires for when I have classes and would like a new desk for my craft room. They have so many options to choose from at Ikea....can't wait to go.

Old In Colours

Today I'm sharing with you something I made a while back, I saw it in a paper crafts magazine probably a year ago. I can't remember the name of the 2 blue colours I used here. It was last year's in colours. Right now I'm in T.O for work probably wishing I was in my craft room working on something other than work. Hope you had a great day! Thanks for having a look.

Pretty Scrapbook Pages


Hey Stampers,

I just love these pages that I made, I think there are so pretty. Glitter is so much fun and I really like it around the edges of the butterflies. The butterflies are dies from the Big Shot. I am still having fun with my big shot. There are so many dies that I want but I'm trying to resist buying them all at once. Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed.

Fun Colour Combo


I saw this colour combo on splitcoaststampers. I love the green and purple together. My living room is close to this green and we have a couch from Ikea that I think is brown but others argue that it's purple which is ok because I think they look nice together. This is one of my favourite stamp sets. I hope you like and thanks for checking in.

Hot Day


It was a hot one today in London. I went out on lunch to read a book outside and it was so nice and hot. I hope you were able to take some time and enjoy it as well. Over the next 4 days I'm going to be in Toronto for work. I was prepared this time and have planned my posts a head of time. This way I wont be away from this for another month. I haven't played around too much with this set so I thought I would pull it out today. I love watercolouring but I don't think I'm that great at it but like anything practice makes perfect. Thanks for stopping by and we'll see you again tomorrow.

Happy Father's Day



Good Afternoon,

Today I'm going to share with you the card that I made for my dad today. It's not very often that I make a manly card so it took me a while to come up with something. This time I have also included in the post what the inside of the card looks like. Hope you enjoy and thanks for stopping by.

Big Shot




I told you that I would see you tomorrow. I thought I would play around with my big shot. I don't think that I've mentioned lately how much I love the big shot. This matchbox is so quick and easy to make and uses little adhesive to put together. All you need to add is a little bit of embellishments. Hope you like, thanks for stopping by!

I'm Back!!!!


Hi Everyone,

I am so sorry that it has been so long since I last posted. My computer crashed and it took forever to get fixed and then before I got it back I went on a holiday to Cuba for a week. I had a blast and can't wait to start scrapbooking the pictures.

I have had a little time to do some crafting. Today I'm sharing with you a scrapbook layout that I just finished. I'm trying to use the in colours as much as possible before they gone July 1st. I stocked up on my in colour paper I hope you did too. I'm going to miss these colours, especially Kiwi Kiss.
Hope you enjoy, thanks for stopping by and I'll be back tomorrow. :)

Paper: Bella Rose DSP, Chocolate Chip, Pink Pirouette, Kiwi Kiss
