Hi there. Thanks for stopping by. Welcome to our 'Stamping’ Australasian 'Blog Hop'. If you've arrived here from Lauren Moore - CTMH Craftings,   then you're in the right place.  If you've landed here by accident, then welcome to the fun! Please join in by following the link at the bottom of this blog. This week, we're looking at two of the beautiful 'specials' currently on offer with CTMH. I've chosen to work with 'Memory Lane', but if you follow the links at the bottom of each blog in the hop, you'll see what others have chosen, and have loads of inspiration for your own projects.  Memory Lane is a co-ordinated set of colourful papers, with co-ordinating cardstock, a stamp set, and embellishments, depending on which bundle you choose. But what really excited me was the little houses....there's a patterned paper of them, and they're also a feature of the stamp set, which I adore! There is so much on this stamp set that will b...

Hello, and welcome to our 'Life’s a Hoot’ Australasian 'Blog Hop'. If you've arrived here from Maz Wood - Amazing Creations,   then you're in the right place.  If you've landed here by accident, then welcome to the fun! Please join in by following the link at the bottom of this blog.  The feature paper with CTMH for March is called ‘Life’s a Hoot’. The tonal range of the papers is divine, and includes the pinks, purples and some glacier green, along with some golden foil accents on some of the paper and the sticker sheet.  It’s amazing how when I first see a set of papers, generally a specific photo or set of photos will come to mind, and then I’m on a mission to hunt them out and get them printed, so I can use them. This month was no exception!  My husband and I have had Golden Retrievers for the past 20+ years, with our latest one arriving in July 2020, at 8 weeks old. Her name is Gracie, and she has an older role model in Pippa who was 6 when Gracie arrived. ...

  Hello, and welcome aboard our 'Are we there yet?' Australasian 'Close To My Heart' Blog Hop. If you've arrived here from Maz Wood - aMAZing Creations , then you're in the right place.  If you've landed here by accident, no problem, please join in by following the link at the end of this post.   As suggested by the title of this blog, today we are featuring the paper pack, 'Are we there yet?' from the January - March catalogue. When I first saw this pack, I wasn't sure I'd be able to come up with much, due to the lack of travel over the past few years. However, inspiration struck early one morning and now, I don't think I will have enough of it to cover all the things I've thought of!  In 2017, I was one of a group of four photographers who travelled to Tiri-Tiri Matangi Island, off the coast of Auckland in New Zealand. The island is a sanctuary, free of pests, where birds and plantlife flourish naturally. If you...
