What a glorious season Spring is. It has to be my favourite season of the year, I just love seeing the trees come into blossom, the lighter evenings and the lambs in the fields with their spring loaded legs and wing nut ears. And we are having such a treat at the moment with this [...]

It’s blog candy time again
I’ve had some problems with the blog over the last week – well, with the site where it’s hosted actually. Hopefully their technical issues are fixed now. So I’ve been wanting to shout about this and haven’t been able to – there’s blog candy over on the Elusive Images Design Team blog – yay!! This [...]
Colour Theory again
My online class Rubber Stamping: Back to Basics started last week and I’m really enjoying getting to know all my new students. This week I’m covering backgrounds and thought it might be useful to give them a link to my colour theory article that I wrote a back in 2009. Then I thought, I bet [...]
But wait … there's more!
I’ve fixed the Frosted Lace download now, that should all be working fine. But that’s not all – I’m feeling generous and slightly Christmassy today, so here’s another download for you – I call this one Moroccan Velvet and I’ve done you two colourways of warm red and zingy green. The usual rules apply – [...]
Life is good
A couple of days ago I said I’d been working on some stuff that was private. From the emails, comments and phone calls, it would seem that may not have been the best way to put it, but at the time I was just trying to explain away the absence of posts without using the [...]
It's another random giveaway!
If you search for the word ‘busy’ on my blog, you get six pages of results. That’s not good. I don’t want to be remembered for spending my life telling the world how busy I was. I once had someone whinge at me for not blogging enough back in the early days and I almost [...]
Blog Candy?
Did you know there’s stamps up for grabs?? While I’m taking a little break this week, Lynn’s been busy over on the Elusive Images Blog and on the Graphicus Blog too actually. But it’s the Elusive Images one where the blog candy is up for grabs, two gorgeous new sets of stamps … And did [...]
Free Digi Download
A small handful of people expressed an interest in my bong tree becoming a stamp. I’m not sure it has a wide enough appeal to make into a stamp, so I offer it here to you all as a free digi download. I have done the file as both jpg (white background) and png (transparent [...]
Time to pick a winner
My laptop is a bit unwell at the moment and isn’t charging its battery properly. The net result being that I didn’t do the giveaway as soon as I intended, so here I am now, with drums rolling and fanfares playing to announce the winners of the new stamp giveaway from last week. This truly [...]

I'm back and I come bearing gifts
People are wondering where I am. I wonder myself at the moment – family life is tough which is why I haven’t been blogging as much. Anyway, I’m here now and I am celebrating the fact we have new stamps out. It feels like absolutely ages since we did a giveaway on the blog, so [...]
