We got to play with the Circle Circus stamp set – I’ve stamped it in four colours and then punched the different layers with various punches (mmmm circle scallop, second favourite after Oval scallop [...]

I meant to mention my new header – did you notice it changed a few days ago (again)? I’ve been trying to find the right image to have ‘up there’ so have been playing musical images. This still isn’t quite what I was after, but I was really happy with the card that this came from, [...]
