Month: April 2021

Thank you for visiting my blog today, I really appreciate your support. Today it’s the fourth InspireInk Bloghop for 2021! So the challenge this month is a Sketch Challenge. This is the sketch that the lovely Tina gave us to follow.

So I have interpreted this sketch quite literally I think. I was desperate to play with some of my new goodies in my preorder (that’s one of the things I love about being a demonstrator!) The Simply Elegant Speciality Designer Series Paper is very special with lots of foiling. It will be available when the New Annual Catalogue launches on 4th May!

I used stitched Rectangles dies to cut the DSP and Basic Black panels. I have stamped inside with Elegantly Said Stamp Set with Memento Tuxedo Black on Very Vanilla.

Please make your self comfy and check out all the other projects in our hop by clicking below.

Welcome to the April 2021 Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop!

Our lovely Sara has set the theme this month ‘Scrap It in the Round’. With no further guidance I had no idea where I might go with this theme. I’m still very new to scrapbooking but I’m always up for a challenge. I had a chat with my friend Tammy who is an experienced scrapper who showed me some of her work and that started the ideas sparking!

I have started with a blank 12 x 12 inch sheet and set about stamping in a circular wreath style with Back to Back Blooms and Circle Celebration Stamp Sets. The circle idea set me thinking of our world and how my children and their families live at opposite sides of the world. I had to steal photographs of my grandchildren from their parent’s social media as I haven’t been able to be with them to take my own due to the pandemic. Last week I was finally able to visit our local garden centre and loved seeing and photographing these amazing anemones in the sun!

Basically some of the big joys in my life are my children and granchildren, stamping and photographing flowers so this page brought me great joy and I hope it meets the brief.
