Nearly two years ago I made a card with a porthole design. I liked it at the time, and though I still think it’s a nice design I can definitely see how much I’ve improved between then and now. Then I had been card making for just eight months; now I’ve been at it for … More You’re A Star
Today’s post is a special one – I’m hosting my very first video hop! This hop was originally planned as a 100 subscriber hop, but it was postponed and then I crossed 200 subscribers, so now it is a hop to celebrate that milestone. (And in fact I’ve just passed 260!)
It’s release day at Sasayaki Glitter Digi Stamps, and there’s several fun new images to play with. I have made a video featuring one of the new images – Yee Haw Harriet. As soon as I saw the image I knew I wanted to make a card with her!
I decided to challenge myself to make another card for our all white challenge over at Cupcake Inspirations. Have you played along yet? White-on-white is definitely a tricky one, at least for me. I actually was starting on a different card when I ended up putting this one together. It’s a bit of a different … More White Owl – CIC 440 Reminder

The patterned papers that came in this kit are the same as the ones in the January card kit. I shared … More 10 Cards 1 Kit – SSS Card Kit Valentine’s 2018 (With Video)
My New Year’s Resolution of getting my card kit videos done in the month that the kits are for has not started off well. A number of technical issues resulted in my YouTube channel taken a slight hiatus. I’m getting back to the videos now, but to avoid putting off the January Card Kit any … More 10 Cards 1 Kit – Simon Says Stamp Card Kit January 2018
Our new Merry Monday challenge this week is very apt, given how the weather has been here in Helsinki recently. Nina is asking for snow on our Christmas cards. I decided to try out a technique I’ve not used before to create the background for my little snowy area. It was fun to do something … More Snow Cling – MM 274
Lately it seems I’ve mostly only been posting when it is for one of my Design Teams. There are the odd exceptions, but generally it does seem to be the case. I think it’s because in my mind the DT work is compulsory, and posting the rest of the time is optional. However, I do … More Shimmer Flower
