Stamped Pencil Case

I have some plain fabric pencil cases and thought I would decorate one of them using the Bijou Japanese Butterfly Rounds stamps from Clarity Crafts.

Elegance - For A Lady

The current challenge over on Try It On Tuesday is For a Lady.  I thought this project fitted the theme.

WOYWW 822/42: Getting Started

Welcome to the weekly sharing of desks which is WOYWW (What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday), the brainchild of Julia, who has kindly entrusted it to me to continue after 15 years of togetherness.  Please feel free to link up your desk and visit others' - we are a friendly bunch. I can't believe that it is March already!

My desk shows the flat pack ink pad storage that arrived on Monday evening.

It really didn't take that long to put together and my Archival inks are now in one place.

Furious after events in Washington DC on Friday.

Moving my craft room inside came a step closer this week.  My nephew who is a plasterer, came yesterday to give me a quote for some work that needs doing and is coming back tomorrow to complete the jobs.  Next will come boxing in the boiler, decorating and a new floor and then I can start planning the layout and new storage that I will need.  It is a smaller room than the shed, but I will be able to go floor to ceiling with units along two walls which will make up for that.  A trip to IKEA may be in order, but it probably won't be finished until after I retire.  Don't worry, I will share everything when it is completed.

I have training late after work today so won't get round to everyone until tomorrow at the earliest.  Stay safe and Happy WOYWW.

Embrace Change: A Mini Make

 Another quick card, this time combining Clarity designer card with one of the stamp sets from Timestamp Creations.

Wild Frame Mini Make

 The Wild Frame stamp set from Clarity Crafts makes for a quick card if you need one in a hurry.  The frame and verse alone are beautiful, but the extra worker stamps can be used on their own too.

Hobby and Word Framer stamps: Ideas and Inspiration

I thought I'd bring together some of the projects I have done using the hobby stamps from Clarity Crafts.  There are also themed sets for sewing, gardening and art.  I have also included some of my Word Framer projects as these were showcased on Clarity Social TV recently. As always, there are links to the step by step instructions below each card.

See HERE.

Such pretty icons (see HERE).

On any background (see HERE).

On a gel print background too (see HERE).

Perfect for a new home card (see HERE).

A Christmas card (see HERE).

A wedding card (see HERE).

Or maybe an engagement (see HERE).

If you search for haberdashery on my blog, you will see a few examples using the sewing related stamps.

#dailyart2025: February Part Two

February flew by and so did my #dailyart2025 challenge using prompts from the 365 Days of Drawing Prompts and Other Art FB group.  I am now onto my second Petite watercolour journal from Clarity Crafts.

Memories of childhood.

A silhouette made this one easier.

Love some toffee.

I have some cups from my grandmother and have managed to avoid doing this!

More memories from a childhood visit to Canada - Chipmunks everywhere!

Camping at the sea side with the family.

Happens all the time!

The orange one definitely is!

I felt a pig's snout would be easier to draw!

Literal and figurative!

My sister and I have a 'big' birthday later this year.

Beside myself with anger!
