Hi all, it's time again for another sketch over at Try Stampin' On Tuesday. I went for a rather quick and simple variation of the sketch.

This is another one of my sketches and I actually pulled it from this card. There is a spooky theme to go with this weeks sketch, but here in Oz, we dont really celebrate halloween. I'm also trying to use up some retired papers - but cutting into beautiful papers is SO hard! I'm however happy with how fresh this feels.

Now over to you, it's great seeing what you come up with and I'm sure you are going to want to check out the other DT creations, so go here. 

Thanks for looking

New Adventure...

Hi! Just wanted to share so exciting news with you. After about three years of Nicole asking if I wanted to be a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, I have finally signed up! So I'm making a few changes here on my blog and Facebook page. Now my title is now Papertrails and I'll slowly be getting my Stampin' Up! online shop set up and any other links I need. I'd love to know what you think of my new clean and fresh look (Spring cleaning is a great thing to do even in blog land :) Also just wanted to say a big thank you to every one who leaves me comments - they really do make my day!

Thanks for looking

Hello, well it's time again for another sketch at Try Stampin' On Tuesday and this has to be one of my go to sketches:

The theme this week is 'give thanks'. Here in Australia, we dont celebrate Thanksgiving, so I decided to use one of my Verve scripture stamps. This was so easy to make and I think I did it in 20 mins - that has to be a recored for me at the moment!!

Now I know you'll want to see the other designers creations, so click here. And remember to link up your creation.

Thanks for looking.

Hi! It's time again for another sketch at Try Stampin' On Tuesday. It's one of my sketches and we also have the added theme of "Autumn in the air".

For the past month or so, my creativeness has gone awol. So this is the first card that I feel like it didn't take forever to create and I can look at it and say "I dont hate it" (but then I dont love it either :) I think we are our own harshest critics.
I did challenge myself to try something new and for my borders and details, I drew around the edges with a black felt tip pen.
I actually found the theme a funny one, as here in Australia we're going into spring, so it's nice and warm and cold autumn weather is now a thing of the past!!! (yes I love spring/summer :)

So now over to you, it's great seeing your creations and how you interpret the sketch. If you want to see the other DT's creations, then click here.

Hello! It's time again for another sketch at Try Stampin' On Tuesday, with the additional theme of using circles on your card.

I wanted to make another Christmas card - my stash is no where near where it needs to be! I heat embossed my image panel and sentiment in gold. The baubles are made from the retired stamp set pendant park and punched out with different size punches, I got the idea from Mary Fish.

Now over to you - it's great seeing what you come up with.

Just also wanted to welcome the new designers that have joined our team - they are fabulous! And if you want to see the design teams creations, go here.
