  Last of the card kits I have to show you today. Only a few days left to grab them in the ‘buy one, get one 50% off’ deal.  I think this is my favourite of the ones I’ve shown over the past few days. The colour combinations remind me of the beach deck chairs with the blue and red stripes. Like the other kits it comes with everything you need and don’t forget once you have finished the projects included you still have the ink spot and stamp set to keep.  Any questions please drop me an email rachhome@msn.com Rachael x

  Brilliant offer throughout June. Card kits are buy one get one 50% off.  The one I’m sharing today is called ‘No matter the weather’. Very appropriate here today as we’ve gone from blue skies and sunshine to wind and rain, back to blue skies again. At least the garden won’t need watering this evening.  Don’t miss out on these fantastic offers, June will be gone before we know it! Browse the kits available by using the tabs top left to shop 24/7.  Happy crafting Rachael x

  I know the sun is shining, that it’s one of the hottest days of the year in the U.K but you can never be too organised for Christmas.  I love Christmas and the whole decorating of the house, frosty mornings and cosy nights in front of the fire. Making cards for Christmas is also my favourite kind of crafting.  It brings back childhood memories of the excitement during the festive season. This cute ‘Love, Santa Tag Kit’ is super easy to put together. Everything you need comes in the box with full instructions. This would make a great project to do with the children or with a family member who has never tried crafting before.  If you purchase any of the Stampin’ up! Kits during June don’t forget the offer of ‘buy one, get one 50% off’. Maybe purchase a few different kits and invite some friends round for a coffee and craft session.  Rachael x

  It’s really hotting up outside today. The last of the clouds are clearing and from across the fields I can see blue sky is heading in my direction. I’m really not a gardener, I enjoy cutting the grass. Marching up and down with the mower and my headphones on I find quite therapeutic but when it comes to weeding  etc I find that tiresome. I do however love the gorgeous flowers that grow, the bright colours that make you feel summery and being able to cut flowers to bring into the house. Our rose seems to be climbing its way to heaven this year, I think a good pruning will be needed once it has finished flowering but the rose heads are huge, just unfortunately too high for us to reach and cut. I did pick these beautiful peonies instead, one of my favourite flowers. I find myself looking at the petals and thinking ‘that would make a great ink colour’  I’d love to see photos of your garden or favourite flowers, it might give some inspiration for new colour combinations in our crafting.

  If you are new to crafting, perhaps your first time wanting to try a new hobby or maybe you have had a dabble at crafting before but not quite sure how to go about putting products together then the fabulous card kits are perfect for you. Everything you need in one box. Instructions included or if you are more adventurous you can make your own design with the items included.  Best part is….if you order during June, you buy one, get one at 50% off! Here’s what comes in the ‘For the guy’s’ kit. The samples I made where for Fathers Day cards but the stamp set included has all the male relations as well as birthday, thanks etc. You can find this set and more in the shop 24/7 tab top left.

  Hey everyone, I hope you’re all having a lovely weekend and those that are celebrating a relaxing Fathers Day too.  I know I haven’t blogged in a VERY long time but I have still been crafting away when time allowed. My ‘proper’ work situation has changed now that the business has sold so I’m hoping to have a lot more free time to craft and hopefully blog to share my makes with you all.  As I’m sure you are aware we have a new annual catalogue which you can find the link to in the tab top left. Enjoy browsing and if I can be of any help please get in touch. rachhome@msn.com. Rachael x
