Welcome to my sanity

Hi fans of all things stamping and papercraft. Welcome to my little business/hobby. If you are like me and love being creative or using colour, then this is a great place for you to be. I may not post very often (usually because I forget to take photos) but I promise I’ll try to share more so you can be caught up in my crazy craft world too. In these uncertain times, one thin

g is for certain. Reaching out to people but sending home made cards is a sure fire way to let your loved ones know you are thinking about them and that you care. We may not be able to visit family and friends at the moment, but we sure can send them hugs in the mail. If you’d like to join me and do the same, make sure you let me know and I can help you on the way.

Last night I finally carved out an hour for a little creative time and put together the cards from my April Paper Pumpkin Kit 💌✨

And honestly… these were SUCH great cards for the guys! 👔🚗🎉
I know so many people struggle when it comes to masculine cards — we tend to overthink them — but these kits make it SO easy.

Everything is already designed for you ✔️
Everything coordinates beautifully ✔️
And the instructions are included step-by-step ✔️

No dragging out an entire craft room.
No wondering what colours go together.
No stress. Just sit down with a cuppa and create 🥰☕

What I love most about the Paper Pumpkin Kits is that they help you build up a stash of beautiful handmade cards for birthdays, thank yous, celebrations and those moments when you suddenly realise… “Oops, I need a card TODAY!” 😂💕

Each monthly kit includes:
✨ A surprise exclusive project
✨ Supplies for 9 gorgeous cards
✨ Coordinated embellishments & accessories
✨ Easy-to-follow instructions
✨ Delivered straight to your door each month

And for less than $50, it’s such a simple and affordable way to keep creativity in your life — even when you’re busy.

Perfect for:
💖 Beginners

Tuesday is my day off (well….so the story goes - I’m yet to see it happen 🤪😂).

So I wanted to spend some time playing with this beautiful die set to see what I could come up with.

I’m actually quite impressed with my colouring ability lol.

What do you think …?

Well… this one is a complete mood shift 🧡

After struggling a little with the last pack…
I think I needed something BRIGHT, BOLD and impossible to ignore 😅

And this card?
It just makes me happy.

Sometimes we don’t need to overthink colours, layouts or techniques…
Sometimes we just need to grab something fun, throw it together and let it be exactly what it is ✂️✨

No rules.
No second guessing.
Just creating for the joy of it.

And I think that’s where the magic really happens 💫

This “Thank You” card came together so easily…
and honestly? It feels like a little burst of sunshine in card form ☀️

Do you ever go through phases like that?
Where you just need something bright and happy to reset your creativity?

👇 Tell me — are you more neutral tones or bright and bold?

I won’t lie… when I opened this DSP pack – Waterfront – I was less than inspired 😅

I absolutely loved the colours… but the patterns?
They just didn’t grab me at all.

And I think that’s something we don’t talk about enough in crafting…
👉 it’s actually OK not to fall in love with everything straight away.

In fact, I’ve learned that if I sit there thinking about it too long…
I end up liking it less and less 🙈

So this time I did something different.
I didn’t overthink it.
I just jumped in… started chopping… layering… playing…

And you know what?
I really love how it came together 💙

Sometimes creativity isn’t about instant inspiration…
It’s about trusting the process and letting the magic happen as you go ✂️✨

This little seaside birthday card ended up stealing my heart 🌊🐦

What about you…
Have you ever started with something you didn’t love and ended up surprising yourself?

👇 Tell me below – I’d love to hear!

I am absolutely loving this designer Series Paper.

Velvet Meadows. It’s not just pretty but it has a textured portion as well. I love touching it lol.

Releasing next week - let me know if you’d like some for yourself. I reckon this one will sell out quickly.
