Category: Welcome to my world.

S’mae, pawb! This week my video is the Hello Hollyhocks kit. I noticed that hollyhocks seem to be the in thing this year at Chelsea (the flower show). I’m not usually that interested in the flower show, but 2 people that I follow on YouTube both went. I wouldn’t be able to cope with all […]

S’mae, pawb! Just a little update on my latest SU haul. In the video I mentioned that you can buy the stamp cases. They’re on page 95 of the current catalogue and cost £8.50 for a pack of 4. They’re very useful. I keep my Simply Shammy in one, my Welsh stamps in a couple, […]

S.mae, pawb! I’ve been able to manage a little bit of crafting in the last couple of days. I’m no longer sporting the comedy bandage and am down to a regular plaster on my little finger. Typing is still awkward, though. My friend, Wendy, aka The Snowdon Stamper, had been using the 6×6 Thoughtful Journey […]

Not much to say this week, other than there’ll be no videos for a while until I have full use of both my hands. Let me explain: I have one of those mandolin slicer/dicer things. I was using it on Monday when I obviously wasn’t paying proper attention and have managed to slice a sizeable […]

S’mae, pawb! Well, I really don’t know where the time has gone. I realised I hadn’t done a video for Wednesday (2 days ago), or a blog. So I’m doing them today. Actually, it works out well as I found out yesterday that next Tuesday, 21st May, SU are doing free P&P. I will definitely […]

S’mae, pawb, I’m doing the Hooray for Honeycomb kit this week. I’m still not sure about one of the cards as I can’t see how it will fit into the envelope. Hey, ho! I started preparing for the craft stall I had at church over the Bank Holiday weekend. I cleaned the bottles I got […]

S’mae, pawb. This week’s video is the new Your Day To Shine kit. It’s a non-stamping kit and has 2 different sizes of cards. There’s the standard SU size of 5½ x 4¼” (I think they call that A2, which always makes me laugh because our A2 is twice the size of an A3!!) and […]

S’mae, pawb. This week I’ve had my pre-order from the new catalogue, so this week’s video shows you what I got. I’m looking forward to using my new stash, but I do need to have a clear-out of some stuff that I haven’t used for ages, (or haven’t ever used!). The picture shows some of […]

Kevin & I had a fantastic weekend away visiting family and we went to two, yes TWO, amazing computer museums. The first one was the Centre for Computing History, in Cambridge, where Clive Sinclair started up his computer company with a pocket calculator. Oh, I was like a child in a sweet shop! I loved […]

S’mae, pawb, my video this week is focusing on the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid Embossing Folder and Die set. I finished making the other cards after the video and this is all of them: I also made some more of the CAS (clean & simple) cards using the new online exclusive, Sweetly Scripted stamp set that […]
