Easter carrot

Easter carrot

Back with another Easter project for you today - a carrot for the Easter Bunny, filled with mini eggs! The carrot was made using Sweet Taffy DSP and following our tutorial and measurements here. We no longer stock the Crimper so the ends of the carrot were scored on...

Swaps from my team mates

Swaps from my team mates

A quick share today. Christmas and New Year were hugely busy for so many of us and so we only had a few of our team swapping at our January meeting. That's perfectly okay - there's no pressure 🙂 My swap was a card that I've already shared here. This beautiful holder...

Nordic Noel Wreath Ornament

Nordic Noel Wreath Ornament

Merry Christmas Eve to you! Need a bit of therapy to sooth you after all the Christmas Preparations? These little ornaments for the tree are a great way to wind down. My video for them is a bit of an oldie … but it still works:) When I was showing colleagues at work...

Many Merry Stars Ornament

Many Merry Stars Ornament

Convention swaps in return

Convention swaps in return

A picture heavy post today. I've already shared the swaps that I made for convention and now I'm back to show you the ones that I got in return. Thanks so much for all my lovely swaps, I know how much work goes into preparing these and each one is treasured. Some...

Gift bow die – not just for card and paper

Gift bow die – not just for card and paper

Another Gift Bow project for you today - the weekly deal reduced price of £21.71 for this die is only valid until tomorrow night and then it reverts back to its full price of £28.95 (and we get a new set of Weekly Deals). Framelits, thinlits and embosslits, fantastic...

Thank you for being an angel

Thank you for being an angel

I'm still using the Gift Bow die (reduced in our Weekly Deals until Wednesday 6 August) and today I've used it to create an angel. You can definitely use this idea for Christmas decorations and gift packaging but angels aren't just for Christmas 😉 - here I've used it...
