I've been back from Hawaii for two weeks now, but I still feel a bit like I'm on Hawaiian time. Not necessarily their time zone, but moving at the same pace. Hawaiians aren't in a hurry to get anywhere and they aren't in a hurry to get things done. Everything gets done in it's own time. I'm starting to think that's a great philosophy. No more pressure and stress. Since my mind is still at the beach, I dug out my Waterfront stamp set and created … [Read more...] about I’ll Be Right Here
Happy Monday!
Here's to a brand new week, full of possibilities. We're going to start this week off on a cheery note, with a beautiful bunch of flowers. I went a little overboard this weekend, stamping a bunch of daisies. Then I wondered how many I could fit on one card. It's seven, just in case you're wondering. I possibly could have fit one more, but then I wouldn't have had room for my "Friend". I used both the large and small daisy from the Daisy … [Read more...] about Happy Monday!
Rose Colored Daisies
Happy Friday! It has been one crazy week at work. My office had a major computer hardware failure last weekend and we were down for almost two full days. Then I spent the last three days trying to get five days worth of work done. Yikes! I am so glad it's Friday. I'm already ready for the weekend. I wanted to share another idea with the Daisy Lane Bundle. These daisies are so pretty and by stacking several of them they make a pretty bunch of … [Read more...] about Rose Colored Daisies
Daisy Lane
Last year sometime (or maybe it was the year before?), I found these mini clipboards on sale at a local craft store. So of course I bought half a dozen of them even though I had no idea what I was actually going to do with them. I knew I needed them because they were on sale. I just didn't know what I needed them for. Do you do this too: buy it on sale because you know you're going to need it someday? Well, I finally used one of them. Only five … [Read more...] about Daisy Lane
Something Different
Do you ever feel like sometimes you keep making the same card over and over? You don't even realize it until you look at the last couple cards all together. When that happens, I take a break and look through Pinterest for awhile. Usually I can find something there to spark a new idea. Today's card for instance is something a little different. Usually I would stamp these flowers and then color them in using either our watercolor pencils or our … [Read more...] about Something Different
So Happy
There are so many beautiful new products in the Annual Catalog and I'm trying my best to use them as quickly as possible so you can see just how beautiful these things are. If only I had endless amounts of time to play with all the goodies, then I could share everything with you. Today's project uses one of the polka-dot Kraft Pillow Boxes. These boxes are approximately 5x3". These are a great size for party favors, treats, or small … [Read more...] about So Happy

June Paper Pumpkin
Our June Paper Pumpkin was a fun little kit. The kit made 12 mini notecards with these lovely beach-y themes. These cards are tiny! They are too small to mail in the US post without putting them in a larger envelope first. Instead, they were intended to pass out to friends or acquaintances as a quick, on-the-spot thank you note. In fact, the kit comes with this cute poly pouch to store the cards in while in your bag. There … [Read more...] about June Paper Pumpkin
