Yes, I do realize I'm a day late. But, I couldn't show off my Father's Day card before the recipient received it. The Come Sail Away Suite is the perfect set for masculine cards. For today's card, I used our brand new Watercolor paper. I do have to say that I love our brand new watercolor paper. The color goes on so nicely. If you haven't tried watercoloring because you think it's hard, it's really not. I find that if I give the paper a light … [Read more...] about Happy Father’s Day!
Daisy Lane
Two years ago, when the Daisy Delight stamp set and coordinating punch were released, I thought it would be so nice if we had daisies in different sizes. Well, guess what? Stampin Up read my mind! This year they released the brand new Daisy Lane stamp set with two sizes of daisies and a second smaller coordinating punch! Using the two daisy punches together allows you to create a lovely daisy flower on your card. The flower on today's card has … [Read more...] about Daisy Lane

Come Sail Away…
Happy Monday! We are now down to the very last week of school. Four more half days, and my daughter is done with her Junior year of high school. My son finished his first year of college several weeks ago. Hooray! I need a vacation. As we crawl towards Summer Break, my mind fills with thoughts of vacation and sailing away. Funny story, I love the romantic notion of sailing away, but I get terribly seasick. I can't even watch boats bob in the … [Read more...] about Come Sail Away…
Almost Summer
Happy Friday! We are so close to finishing up the school year that I can already picture myself sleeping in and lounging around the house all day. Ha! I wish. That's what my teenagers will be doing. Instead, I'll be at work all day... enjoying all the free air conditioning I can handle. Actually, I do love the summer break. No tests, no homework, no projects. I thought that last physics project was going to do us in. Have you heard of … [Read more...] about Almost Summer

Not Just Another Boring Album
I was recently talking about our Memories and More scrapbooking line with a friend. She mentioned that she liked the idea of the pocket pages that make scrapbooking so much quicker, but she was not in love with the plain 6x8 albums. Her words… “who wants a plain brown book?”. And I totally agree! Nobody wants a plain, boring book. That’s for sure. Then I explained to her how I decorate my covers. I'm glad the albums are plain so I can make … [Read more...] about Not Just Another Boring Album
