Rediscovery hop – Beach theme
Today I’m taking part in an Instagram Hop that is designed to encourage you to dig into that stash you’ve got sitting in your craft room, waiting to be used! It’s about using your existing supplies rather than buying new, which is something I’ve been trying to do a lot more this year! This month’s…

Trick or Treat – Lawn Fawn x Wow Embossing
Have you seen the new Trios that Wow Embossing have recently released? The thing I love about them is that often they are colours that I would not have thought to put together myself. One of the Trios that Wow! sent me to play with as part of my guest design spot recently was this…
