About Me

My photo
I'm a retired primary school teacher, who started paper crafting in 2008, when I had a fancy to make my own Christmas cards. Since then, I have tried all sorts of techniques and styles - and I kind of like them all. I have been lucky enough to be on blog teams and large design teams and to do a bit of freelance demonstrating - and I love the challenge of working with different products. My crafting style is very varied - from junk journaling and art journaling, bookbinding and journal making, to quilting and patchwork - and of course I still make cards. This variety keeps me interested - and my crafty stash growing!! I'm always seeking inspiration for new projects.

Sugar and Spice

Another fortnight's challenge is under way at Use Your Craft Stash. We are now on S and T! My "S" card is a Stepper card, using Crafter's Companion Sugar and Spice CD, a Scent bottle topper, and Sent with love sentiment.

I used the template for a centre stepper card from a previous blog post of mine (click here to see it). The only difference is that I reduced the measurement from the sides (show on the previous post as 4cm) to 3cm, in order to accommodate the card companion from the CD.

The base is made using an A4 sheet of Centura Pearl, and I printed two papers from the CD to match those on the topper. I also used a sheet of matt mirror card - I think this was from the Sara Signature Flutterby collection.

I used a Spellbinder die to cut the circular topper, and a scalloped circle die to create a mat. 


We look forward to seeing your creations!

Happy crafting.
