Another bit of unloved stash taken down off the shelf and put to good use. I bought one of the Kaleidacolor multicolour ink pads ages ago out of curiosity; I think I maybe did a test stamp with it on some scrap paper, but I've never used it on an actual project. And then I… Continue reading Pink and purple embossed flowers
I was tidying my computer desk the other day, working my way down to the bottom of a pile of crafty bits that had ended up balanced on the corner, when I came across a stamp set I'd been lucky enough to win in one of Kathy Racoosin's colouring giveaways over on Instagram.

To avoid them all merging together into one big red pile, I used three different pinky-red blends for the hearts. I also added a bit of sparkle and… Continue reading Panda in love
The obvious thing would have been to make a Valentine card with this bunny and its big heart, but it didn't really feel like the sort of image I'd use for a card for my other half (see this year's Deadpool Valentine). So I decided to leave it without a sentiment because my card stash… Continue reading Love you sew much bunny
