More Bangs For Your Buck
16 February 2017
I'm over at the Uniko Studio blog today,
(please do join me over THERE)
with some ideas of how to get "more bangs for your buck"
AKA same stamp set two ways!

Penguin Wings
26 March 2016
Allsorts Challenge want to see "wings".
Love this little penguin stamp!
It's from a long-retired Stampin Up set that I've had for ages.
Those of you who frequent my blog on a regular basis - thank you! - may be surprised to see a rectangular card.
Gasp!
Yup. I surprised myself too.
Found a stash of deckle-edged cards under the bed in the spare room, whilst hunting for Basil, the hamster. Long story.
Suffice to say, I broke out of my "square" comfort zone.
As did Basil.
Wired Heart
01 March 2016
Less Is More has an unusual challenge this week - they want us to use wire.
Had to really get my thinking cap on for this one!
I can't believe it's the start of March today - wow February flew by fast!
Hope you have a fun week lined up.
Love Parcel
14 February 2016
CupcakeInspirations and CraftyCardmakers want "love".
TheFridayMashUp want us to be ready for Valentine's Day.
Well if you're not ready, you've missed the boat, seeing as it's today!
We made these gift parcels at my February craft club session
together with a matching card (which I forgot to photograph, oops!).
I'll have to update the post once hubby has opened his card & present ;)
Anyhow, I digress from the aforementioned parcel.
These gift parcels are the perfect size to hold a pack of truffles (or in this case, caramel hearts!) sold at Thorntons.
And all you need to make it is 1 sheet of A4 card.
- With the card landscape style (horizontal), score it at 3" 5" 8" 10".
- Then with the card portrait style (vertical), score it at 2".
- Fold along the score lines and you will see that the 2" score line forms the base of your package.
- At one bottom corner you will have a rectangle approx 3" x 2" and at the other bottom corner you will have a square approx 2".
- Cut away the 2" square.
- Using strong glue make up into your box shape. It's easier to adhere the long side edges first. Then fold up the 4 bottom flaps.
- To fasten the top of the package, punch a small circle on either side & feed a piece of ribbon through.
Happy Valentine's Day peeps!
Chocolate Bears
10 February 2016
StampInkPaper have a 'love' challenge and
AddictedToStamps have a photo of some edible hearts ;)
A little something for my boys (well teenagers actually!) on Sunday.
I couldn't resist decorating the large chocolate hearts.
Roll on the weekend!
