Hi and welcome. Today’s post is all about gold and silver and a pretty gift box. I loved the colour challenge posted by The Paper Players for this week and decided that creating this gift box was the way to go. Who says you can’t use gold and silver at the same time! The Christmas […]

LOTS AND LOTS OF SNOWFLAKES
Well, our winter weather has arrived with a vengeance and we have snow, snow and more snow with cold temperatures to match. -25 C temperatures to be exact. So todays card, covered in snowflakes, was inspired by our weather. The Paper Players theme challenge to use snowflakes was another inspiration as was the sketch from […]
A BEARY BIG THANK YOU
I took some time to create this beary big thank you card the other day. The Baby Bear stamp set is a 3-step set and lots of fun to create with. I started with the great sketch from The Paper Players and used Smoky Slate ink for the first layer of the bear. Then added […]

I had a little fun with the spooky pumpkin faces by embossing them with White Stampin’ Emboss powder and then added the simple banner. This […]
CELEBRATE WITH BALLOONS
Do you have balloons around when you celebrate special occasions? I think that they add that little bit of extra to the celebrations so I made this card. I haven’t used the Celebrate Today stamp set and matching Balloon Framelits for a long time so it was fun to use them again. The Paper Players […]
FALL IS DEFINITLY HERE
Fall has definitely arrived up here in northeastern BC! The leaves in our yard have been turning colour very quickly and they were my inspiration for today’s clean and simple card. The Paper Players posted a “Clean-and-Simple Taste of Fall” challenge and so I feel that these leaves work perfectly. I started with a piece […]
