Today we are travelling the world, visiting some of my demonstrator friends who are part of the Global Stampers Challenge. This month’s challenge was to create a ‘vacation’ project. I have already posted details of my vacation card which featured the Pick a Pattern Designer Series Paper. Check out these simple cards.
Pick a Pattern Designer Series Paper becomes a favourite It is holiday time here in Australia and so it seems right around the world – hence why the theme for the July Global Stampers is holidays – something very dear to me. There were so many projects running around in my head but I decided… Read More »

Delicate Details Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up! can pack a punch! I think that the Delicate Details Stamp Set from the Sale-a-Bration Catalogue is one of those sets that can be easily overlooked.

Dragonfly Dreams sparkles I needed a special thank you card. Ever since I saw the Hexagon Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, I have had this card in mind.
