Happy September, everyone! As today is not just the first of the month, but also the first Wednesday of the month, it is time for a new challenge at The Male Room. I’ve been on a break from this team over the last few month’s as I tried to get my crafty mojo back, and … More TMR 154 | Give Thanks | Nature’s Bounty
I’ve been working hard on cards all day, but nothing I can actually share yet. I’m halfway through the cards for my first (yes, first!) video using the Love From Lizi August card kit. I spent pretty much the whole day on it. Actually, more than that, because I started planning out what I would … More You’re A Treasure | Gatefold Card
I was planning to share these cards yesterday, but by the time the third one was made it was already pretty late. I do have a studio light for my photos, but they look better with natural light, which had already gone, and sorting the blog post would take a while, and I wanted to … More Adding Colour To Cards
I fell behind a bit at the end of last week. I had no energy left after being done with work each day. The weekend has helped me recover somewhat, and I’ve been doing some catching up on the cards I had wanted to make and share over the days I missed. Not all of … More Catch Up Cards
My first day back at work after being ill went fine. If you don’t count all the public transport mishaps… On my way to work, I had to go to the bus stop after the one I needed to get off at, because my stop has apparently been replaced by a hole in the ground. … More A Variety of Cards
Okay, this blog theme is maybe a stretch. I had no idea how to link these three cards… The first two are arguably nature inspired – the first has flowers, the second a leaf. The third card is a bit of a stretch with its cartoon fox. But I really wasn’t sure what else I … More Nature Inspired Cards
We’re half way through this month’s challenge at Christmas Craft Creations. If you haven’t encountered our challenge before, it’s a month challenge all about Christmas creations (as the name suggests!) with different themes each month. This month, as it is Christmas in July, we decided to go with an anything goes theme, so any projects … More Christmas Craft Creations | Christmas Cards | Anything Goes
I’ve been having fun revisiting card kits this month and trying to use up bits and pieces from them. I made 16 cards with a bee-themed kit from Simon Says Stamp, a SheetLoad of mini slimline cards with a Love From Lizi kit, I have another 16 Christmas-themed cards that will be shared tomorrow, and … More Peacock Mini Slimlines | Patterned Paper Cards
There have been a lot of days lately that I’ve been sharing more than one card at a time. I’ve been lucky that I’ve been able to come up with ways to connect them, because I hadn’t planned ahead to consider how to connect them in the blog posts. Yesterday it was cards using embossing … More Stamped Cards
I’m seeing embossing folders around more and more lately. They seem to be having something of a resurgence. I don’t have very many embossing folders, but I do enjoy using them. I even made a video a couple of years ago talking about different ways to use them, which you can find here if you’re … More Embossing Folder Cards
