Have you met my faithful assistant Frannie? She is always by my side and loves to help me in the studio. She's great at shredding paper and unspooling ribbon. And if you need something chewed, she's ready to take on the challenge. Frannie is 7 lbs of terrier mutt, although most of that is fur and ears. She loves to lounge on the back of the couch and always has this one ear perked up to make sure she's not missing out on something. … [Read more...] about Day 5-Display Stamper Blog Hop

Today's project is going to be a real treat for you. Well, actually, it's a treat box. In the upcoming Occasions Catalog, one of the cool new products is the Silver Mini Gable boxes. The boxes come in a pack of 12 and they are food safe. These are going to be perfect for when you want to give away some homemade treats. But you know you can't just give away a plain box.

Day 2-Display Stamper Blog Hop
Today, I'm featuring the Petal Palette stamp set from the upcoming Occasions Catalog. One of my favorite images from the stamp set is the little birdie. I love the look of old fashioned polaroid photos so that's what I tried to recreate here - a picture of a birdie on a branch. He just looks so sweet. You are going to love this stamp set when you see all the images. And what's even better is that we have a coordinating thinlet die set … [Read more...] about Day 2-Display Stamper Blog Hop

You Are Missing Out
Last night was our monthly Downline Meeting for my group. And if you weren't there, you are missed out on seeing all the brand new goodies they gave us at OnStage (our Stampin Up Convention) last week. I wait to do my recap post here until after I've shared the new goodies with my Downline first. Don't worry though, I'll post the recap of OnStage sometime next week. Today's project is my swap from our meeting last night and our theme was … [Read more...] about You Are Missing Out
It’s Still Fall
Remember all those leaves that I die cut a few weeks ago? This is the project for which they were intended. I made several of these Fall wall hangings for the Boutiques I was working this year. I knew I needed a bunch of leaves, but wasn’t totally sure of how many and in what colors. So, I die cut a lot of leaves, using up tons of scrap paper. I may have gotten a little carried away...I found the burlap canvases at a local store and covered them … [Read more...] about It’s Still Fall
