Christy’s Post

Hello all, this is my first post here and I wanted to share this cute little mini album I made with Clearsnap inks and of course a whole slew of MSB stamps.

One sheet mini album

I wanted to get back to basics and create a mini album using one sheet of 12 x 12 paper.  There are several different folds out there, I know, but this is the most simple.  I also wanted to create my own background using paint and stamps for no other reason than it’s fun to…  |  read more »

Going Vintage

Cut, stamp and colour, it’s that simple.

I’m a big die cutting fan and own 2 cutting machines, one manual and the other electronic (how greedy is that?). 
It’s all very well being able to cut your favourite shapes from patterned paper but with all the stash in the world, there’ll still be times when you won’t have the right colour or pattern…  |  read more »
