Hello friends! I’m back with another card that I made using the new Halloween stamps from Tim Holtz and Stampers Anonymous. The card was inspired by the new shifters ray stencil. It just whispered circus to me. The skull from the life of the party stamp set (CMS380) matched perfectly with the distinguished (CMS371) stamp set. I love this sentiment, also from the life of…

Hello friends! I wanted to share this super simple card that I made and shared on instagram using some the new Halloween stamps from Tim Holtz and Stampers Anonymous. It’s no secret that I’m a fan of hats and the distinguished stamp set (CMS371) has been one of my favourites. The moment I saw the cadaverous stamp set (CMS378) I knew I was going to…

Hello again! Nothing for months, then 2 posts in one day! #fairweatherblogger I had to share this super simple project that I made for the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Halloween facebook LIVE. If you missed the LIVE you can see it on Tim’s blog along with the designers samples. The moment I saw the monster reunion stamps (CMS381), I immediately thought of that famous scene…

Hello friends! It’s been a while… I’ve been sharing my makes over on instagram rather than my blog recently as, honestly, it’s easier and I’m quite lazy! LOL I’m aware that not everybody uses instagram and so for those who don’t, I’m posting a catch up of what I’ve been making since my last blog post… (CMS371) distinguished + (CMS304) sea life + idea-ology snarky…

I covered the edges of the mini clipboard with opaque crackle texture paste and set aside to dry and crack. I took a technique inspired by Stacy Hutchinson using plain collage paper to reinforce old book paper. I adapted it slightly and added the collage paper (shiny…

Hello friends. Yes you guessed it, another Hat! With Spring upon us here in Copenhagen and Easter fast approaching, I was inspired to do something with eggs. I had to back order the bird feather (CMS180) stamp set but I knew I had to have it and the hat and collar from the distinguished (CMS371) stamp set is a perfect match! One of best things…

Hello friends. I just can’t stop making with the Tim Holtz Distinguished stamp set. Every time I think I’m done, I want to make just one more. It’s craft crack! This time I added some of the other new stamps sets to the Distinguished set to create a little background drama. Because who doesn’t love a bit of background drama?! 😉 I covered distress watercolor…

Hello Friends. I’m back with more hats! I used many of the same products that I used for the indistinguishably dapper card and keeping within the same style but changing some elements. I about wept with joy when I saw the March release stamps, but wasn’t entirely sure how I was going to use the Media Marks stamps. I’ve had some epic fails trying (too…

Hello friends. I’ve been in a little bit of trouble this morning over a small issue of sewing through nails without safety glasses! Moving swiftly on… I am sharing a card I made using the Dapper (CMS267) and Distinguished (CMS371) stamp sets. Until Distinguished was released in January, Dapper was my favourite and most used set. The hat and coat are just my jam. Distinguished…

Hello friends. I had a really busy day yesterday and couldn’t wait to get to my desk to try out an idea that had been brewing all day. I made a card to send to my Niece who lives in Ireland and will be celebrating her very first St Partick’s Day this coming Sunday. I created a background using distress paints and my gel press.…
