I've said it before and I will say it again, Product Medleys are amazing. The Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue offers one of my favourite ones in Boho Indigo, not only do you get everything you well need except ink and glue in a single product, but you can buy refill kits to continue making more… Continue reading Boho Blue
Stampin' Up! make simple cards so easy - the products in the Annual Catalogue are beautiful and co-ordinate with one another perfectly.

The Boho Indigo product medley is gorgeous, full of floral patterns, shades of blue… Continue reading Happy Boho News
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.

I love the sketched nature of the stamp set and the free reign it allows me for art materials - the imagery would suit Watercolour Pencils, Stampin'… Continue reading Wild Hedgehog
My son turned 11 last month - he's absolutely penguin mad, so his card every year is always penguin related in some way. The launch of the new Autumn / Winter was perfect timing for me to make his card this year, especially with the inclusion of the Freezin' Friends Bundle. The gorgeous penguin from… Continue reading Penguin Birthday

I try to set myself a challenge that 1 in every 10 cards must be purposely masculine - this way I've always got a masculine card for when I need it. I… Continue reading Monochrome Love
