I’m only seven days late, but I’ve made an advent calendar and thought I’d share it with you. I saw a similar version somewhere and just had to make one. I started with a piece of pine from the hardware store, painted in white and sanded it for that rustic look. I did the same […]


Have you all seen the new Autumn-Winter Mini Catalogue from Stampin’ Up!?  If you haven’t, go and check it out now! This post is to show you one of the cutest punches ever.  It’s a little cupcake!  And that’s not all, there’s a stamp set that co-ordinates with it! I haven’t had a chance to […]


……. for a while anyway.  These last couple of cards are from the combined inspiration of my friend Deena and I.  Back to more traditional colours this time.  This first card using the Dasher stamp from Stampin’ Up! uses Pear Pizzaz, Riding Hood Red, Early Espresso and Very Vanilla.  And the striped Riding Hood Red […]


My monthly Stamp Club class is something I look forward to each month as it is so great to catch up with the girls and they truly have become my friends.  It’s class time again tomorrow and this is the card we’ll be making. It uses the big shot to cut the top note, little […]


I’ve finally got some card packs made up for Mathilda’s Market.  Yay!  These are invitation packs that can be used for a birthday party or any other special occasion you’d love to invite your friends and family to.  They have blank lines inside to add your event information into: date, time, place and RSVP.  Very […]

Valentines Day of course! Well, I must admit that I’m not really a valentines person and I have never even made a valentines card.  But I sat down today for a little bit of craft time and thought I’d try my hand at a few “challenges”.  I checked a few blogs that I visit regularly […]


I’ve had this post on my ‘to do’ list for a long time.  Since September actually!  I made a pack of cards to be auctioned at a church ‘Service Auction’.  This event was free and everyone donated something to be auctioned.  There were gorgeous pamper packs and chocolate goodies and, as the event title suggests, […]


As a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator I am also part of yahoo group that is set up just for Australian demonstrators.  On this group they have a “cyberstamp” every now and then and this time I have volunteered to do one of the challenges.  I’m glad they liked my idea as it meant that I had […]


I had to use my fifth avenue floral set again because it has been collecting dust and also wanted to show you all another stamping technique.  The technique I have used is called crayon resist and really gives some awesome highlights and detail to an image. I started with a plain piece of glossy white […]
