Thankyou all for your kind thought, good wishes to get well soon and to look after myself.
Our household has been rife with influenza an and b, pneumonia, bronchial problems, sore throats and coughing fits. My poor sister and brother in law were visiting and picked up nasty bugs on the cruise ship. This led to further problems and long recovery times for them.
For hubby and I the bronchial issues and coughing seems to be the thing that is bothering us but we are isolating just in case.

As soon as I can I will be back to creating.
In the mean time don’t forget the $7 product of the month which can be ordered if you spend $100. The set of 27 star does looks amazing and it will be sure to sell out. I ordered mine on Tuesday and hoping I will be well enough to play with them once the order arrives.

Hi everyone
Just want to catch up and let you know what’s happening. I haven’t posted any new content as I have a bronchial infection, can’t talk without coughing and I am sure you don’t need to listen to that.
I have postponed and rescheduled my monthly classes and am hoping normal service will be resumed shortly!
Looking forward to videoing my E for Easel card as it has sat on my desk for the past few weeks just waiting 🤣
See you soon
Xx

Thankyou for all of your lovely comments and messages about my cards these past couple of weeks - I really appreciate it and am inspired to continue!
I will be taking a little social media break and will not be posting on Facebook for the next few weeks but will return with my letter D project soon.
Enjoy the last of summer and the start of Fall!

Welcome to my Wednesday Workshop series.
I have challenged myself to make a project for each letter of the alphabet and this is starting to be a fun workshop!
C is for case the catalogue templates page.
Check the beginning of the video for the measurements I use.
The new catalogue became available on September 1st and I love both the templates and QR code for extra templates on page 13. I used a template from the catalogue page and not the QR code for this card.

I hope you are having fun watching and crafting through the alphabet with me. Check the YouTube video in the comments

Welcome to my Wednesday Workshop series.
I have challenged myself to make a project for each letter of the alphabet and this is starting to be a fun workshop!
B is for a Bay window card made with the scenic coast bundle and matching DSP. (Check the beginning of the YouTube video for the measurements I used)
The Tile Garden square dies are a new release in the September catalogue available on September 1st. As a current demonstrator I was able to order early and so have access to them already!

I hope you have fun watching and crafting through the alphabet with me. Check the comments for the YouTube link .

Hello and welcome to my new Wednesday Workshop - a series of projects using the letters of the alphabet.
Today for my first project I chose -
A is for an Accordion fold card.

I used the lovey Violet Dreams DSP and Exciting Times stamps.
All measurements can be seen at the start of the you tube video which is linked in comments.

Morning and Happy Monday!
I have been neglecting my crafting these past couple of months as we were working on the garden and decorating inside the house.
Starting this week I want to get back to playing with my craft supplies - my room has been tidied, re-arranged and painted so it is ready to go!
I thought I would challenge myself to work through the alphabet - each week I will choose a letter and make a project (or 2 ) using that letter for inspiration. It may be the name of a fun fold, an occasion or Holiday theme, a 3d project, a technique etc.
I need some help and ideas though 😂
My scruffy notebook page shows my ideas so far but I want to have at least 2 ideas for each letter. Can you help me find more projects, especially for the hard to use letters like x and q?

All thoughts and ideas would be welcome - even your favourite fold or techniques and a different idea for letters which I have already added a project.

I am going to try to work on the letters in alphabetical order but not sure if that is too much extra work 🤷‍♀️.

Once I make a project I will add a YouTube link on here and include measurements too.

Thankyou!
