Anyone Home?

I've got another Class at the Craft Barn coming up in January called 'Anyone Home...?' Here's what we'll be making:


It uses Crafty Secrets stamps and Crafty Individuals stamps and you can have it standing on the mantelpiece or hang it on the wall. Should be a fun class - it's on Sunday 22 January, all day.

Thanks for looking and thankyou for all the lovely comments you've left.

Have a very happy Christmas!

And another 'All Wrapped Up...'

This time I've made an exploding box out of an old cardboard box.
It didn't quite turn out as planned as I couldn't decide what to put in the middle as it needs to have an all round view if you get my drift! I'd already decided on the fir trees and the little houses, but the very centre was tricky! In the end I made a little gold Christmas tree by fringing some gold painted card and sticking it to a tiny cone.
This is the box from the outside:

And then from the inside:




I've used the tree and house stamps from CI-257. Hop on over to the Crafty Individuals blog to find details of the challenge!

Christmas card...

I've made my Christmas cards for this year - a one layer design with lots of sparkle! I can't believe I've managed to stick to one layer!


The main image is Crafty Individuals CI-332 with Autumn Leaves flourishes and a tiny background text from Prima.
Just got to write and send them now!

Thanks for looking!

Row Houses

Here's a project I made inspired by the Whimsical Melange Artistic Outpost stamps. The house frames are designed to work with lots of their other stamp sets. I've filled in with the Birds of a Feather set.and the Ephemeral Backgrounds set.







All stamps from Happy Daze.
