Make it Monday - Gears & Textures and technique - 23.3.2026

“Make it Monday” today was all about getting a little messy and a whole lot creative! 

We played with a couple of techniques to create a real grungy-style card using the Gears & Textures and Banner Sayings bundles.

Shaving cream and heat embossing are such fabulous techniques for adding texture and that perfectly imperfect grunge look. I just love how this one turned out!

Business Update

💛 Business Update 💛

A little update from me and my crafting journey 

With some beautiful life changes happening (more family time and precious grandbaby moments 🥰), I’ll be gently shifting the direction of my little creative business.

This means that my in-person classes will be coming to an END, April will be my last in-person class, but I’m not going anywhere!

Here’s what is continuing (and growing!):

⭐️Weekly live videos

⭐️Monthly online classes

⭐️“Make & Create” kits with orders over $60

And I’m excited to introduce:

🟢 Paper Pumpkin Kit subscriptions starting April. (More details to come). 

🟢 Catalogue launch workshops with each Stampin’ Up! release of their 3 catalogues. 

🟢 A new Customer Appreciation Gift – a FREE PDF tutorial + exclusive private YouTube video featuring 4 projects with orders over $100 (starting May).

I’m truly excited about this new direction and the flexibility it brings, and I hope you’ll continue to join me on this journey.

Thank you, as always, for your ongoing support—it means the world to me. 💕

Card and a Cuppa - Help me Grow bundle - 18.3.2026

Today’s “Card and a Cuppa” we played with the beautiful Delicate Dreams Specialty Paper and the Help Me Grow bundle to create this fun little gardening-inspired card. 🌿🌸 

I love how these elements come together to bring such a fresh, nature-filled feel to the design!
