Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. Have you used layering stamps before but want a different way to use them?

I used a white gel pen to add details and highlights before fussy cutting them all out. I used a craft knife to cut slits between the noodles so I could tuck my ingredients in to place and adhered them using Scor-Tape....

  Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. I have a lovely colour combination for you today to use in your card and papercraft projects. I have created a lovely soft and sophisticated with love card using Altenew stamp and dies but you could use this colour scheme for a range of occasions.

Hi there , I hope you all had a wonderful Easter.  The weather was certainly spectacular. A few of our chocolate bunnies had a melt down, but i don't think the grandchildren have noticed. A quick pop in the fridge and they are wonky but edible.   Back to crafty business and I've got card 2 and 3 as promised.                                                                                ...
