Sale-a-bration countdown – 2 days to go!

Continuing our Sale-a-bration countdown, I’m back today with the Fresh Vintage stamp set again. This time, in bold, bright colours. I took my inspiration for the card from the following sketch offered by my SUDSOL Stampin' Up! demo forum:  And this is my take on it:...

Sale-a-bration countdown – 3 days to go!

Today's countdown card is the one I've been sending to workshop guests during March (sorry if I've spoiled the surprise for anyone). It mainly uses the Outlined Occasions set but I've also snuck in a teeny stamp from the Elementary Elegance set. The stars on the...

Today is the first day …

Wow! Well yesterday was my last day in the day job so I guess that means that today is the first day of the rest of my life! I've taken a voluntary severance package and after 26 years with the same employer it's going to be a heck of a change, but whilst I'll miss...

Mother’s Day from son to Mum

Well, my Mum loved the Mother's Day card yesterday and I was so pleased that she recognised the work and love that went into it. So here's the Mother's Day card that DH made for his Mum. He definitely likes tongue in cheek and he wanted to get our dog, Bess in on the...
