Making large boxes isn't done often, mainly because I like to save Designer Series Paper (DSP) and not use an entire sheet in one go. But that's silly - that's what it's for and should be used for others to be amazed by. So I've done it, this project uses a full 12" x 12"… Continue reading Gleaming Cube
I enjoy making unusual shape boxes - anything that isn't square or rectangular. I also love making big boxes that can house lots of treats and goodies. This box was meant to be a flat bottomed, tall box with a hexagonal top to it. However, when making the net of my sample, I got the… Continue reading Hexagonal Thanks
Birthday Party Live – Project #7 It's the last project of the Birthday Party Live series!! It's gone by so fast! I thought I would end the series with this cute Kawaii inspired hexagon pencil pot. And you don't need a lot to make one! Each one turns out differently because of the random stamping… Continue reading Hexagon Kuwaii
Birthday Party Live - Project #6 I love when Stampin' Up! release dies that make cute little boxes such as the new Little Treat Box dies that are available. They are great when you are struggling to bring a box together for a project and mean you don't have to work out the measurements before… Continue reading Double Slot Treat Box
Birthday Party Live - Project #5 So, back in July you saw me make a cylindrical box using the Layering Circles dies - this time I've made an oval box using the same method and I think I prefer the oval to the circle! Made in my absolute favourite colour, Blackberry Bliss and decorated with… Continue reading Blackberry Oval Box
Birthday Party Live - Project #3 At this time of the year, my thoughts turn to Halloween, Bonfire Night, Autumn and Christmas gifts. With Covid-19 having such a large impact on 2020, I have been producing many thank you gifts to my workplace team members for their help and assistance during these unprecedented times. With… Continue reading Thank You Wrap

This year's Halloween paper is absolutely gorgeous and whilst Halloween is still almost two months away, I find myself using it again and again (you'll see it make an appearance in my Birthday Party Live Week). For this project, I wanted to showcase the gorgeous bats and the giant label you get as part of… Continue reading Halloween Magic
In our last blog post, we made the matchboxes to hold our embellishments - but in their current form, once weighted with goodies, they may fall over and become troublesome. To overcome this and make sure they acted as a desk tidy, I created a container big enough to hold all seven of my boxes… Continue reading Matchbox Library Part 2
Today's project is a special one - the idea came to my head following a struggle with my desk space and a lack of storage for my many embellishments. Prior to making this project, my embellishments were stored in spare stamp cases, but this meant I had less space for stamp sets on my shelves.… Continue reading Matchbox Library Part 1
