It may be absolutely freezing outside but I’m in the springy mood and ready to clean, order, and freshen up and that means my blog too.
I’ve made myself a new blog banner which is so easy and fun to do, this one took me just half an hour.

I started with a piece of card 28…  |  read more »

Some Spring Sunshine… On a Canvas!

For my blog post for myStamp Box this month I thought I would create a little sunshine as we longingly await the arrival of spring here in Alberta, snug up against the Rockies.  It has been a loooooong winter and we are more than ready for some beautiful Alberta blue sky and…  |  read more »

Road Trip

I’m off to England for the Easter break visiting family and as I don’t get to see them that often I imagine there’ll be lots and lots of photo’s taken.

A grey and Kraft Christmas

My usual projects are full of colour and contrast but for these cards I thought I’d try and simplify things quite a bit, sticking to a neutral colour palette for a change.
I used the sentiments from the Hohoho set to stamp onto my background paper and the Christmas Blocks for the toppers.
I rather liked the…  |  read more »

Have a Great Day Card

Mixing myStamp Box stamp sets is one of my favorite things to do!  For this card I used a Kraft Note Card from Canvas Corp and mixed three fantastic sets: Pixel Perfect (the tape), Enjoy Your Latte (the background), and Merry Word Jumble (the sentiment).

Simply playing

Sometimes there are projects which simply evolve as you go along and this is one of those projects.
My starting point was the house shaped card and background created with my Gelato’s by Faber Castell.  I wanted to add some collage to the pages and thought I’d use a couple of book pages which were already…  |  read more »
