I'm just uploading this before rushing off for work!!! I stamped the leaf border from the Waltzingmouse 'Gift Card It' on an A6 white card base (tent fold orientation), then I used the co-ordinating die set to cut the gift card holding strip in the middle of the card & stamped the sentiment in Stampin'… Continue reading A big squishy hug – WMFC 20

Return to blossoming health – WMF20
Phew! I managed to finish this in time to enter the Waltzingmouse Fanatics Challenge! This fortnight's challenge was colours: Aren't those colours lovely & fresh? I LOVE orchids, so my first thought was to make loads of paper orchids in the colour scheme, but then I realised that that wouldn't really showcase my Waltzingmouse stamps… Continue reading Return to blossoming health – WMF20

You’re the Cherry Best
I fell in love with the Waltzingmouse 'Big Berries - Strawberries' when I first saw them, so when the Cherries was released I bought it straight away. Unfortunately it seems to have been one of those stamps that I get & have lots of ideas for, but never get around to using! When Stampin' UP!… Continue reading You’re the Cherry Best
Thinking of you
Years ago I saw a beautiful coat at Badminton Horse Trials - I was enchanted, so I ended up parting with quite a lot of money for a coat that I often get out of the wardrobe just to stare at... I'm sure you will agree the material is gorgeous, teal is my favourite colour.… Continue reading Thinking of you
