A few weeks ago I shared this adorable Snowman treat-holder here. This treat-holder turned out to be super popular at the last two events I shared it at because this is a super easy idea that is perfect for mass production. I've had a number of requests to share a pattern on how to mass produce this project. I'm a visual person myself, so it really helps if I see it on paper. If someone starts giving me a bunch of numbers verbally, I'm … [Read more...] about Here To Serve You
Christmas & Holiday Cards
Tis The Season
A few weeks ago, I shared this beautiful Fall wreath that I made for a card. You can see it here. I received so many compliments on that card, I was seriously blown away. It was definitely a hit. And it's a card that is very easily replicated and it has such a wow factor. You definitely want to get your own set of the wreath dies so you can wow your friends and family too. While I had all the supplies out, I made a similar card for the … [Read more...] about Tis The Season
Happiness is a Warm Smile
Most of you already know that I live in Southern California. The only way I'm going to see a snowman is if I see one on the internet. I'm definitely not a Winter Season girl. Don't get me wrong. I love the way the snow and ice looks in all those pictures I see in books and online. But I won't be living in it - that's for sure. As soon as the temperature drops to 68, I'm digging out the scarves and heavy jacket. Even though I'm not ready … [Read more...] about Happiness is a Warm Smile
Deck The Halls
Happy Monday! Today I'm sharing my second make & take from the retreat this past weekend. I really enjoy seeing everyone at the retreats. And I love seeing what everyone is working on. These ladies are pretty dedicated to their crafting. This make & take is actually a gift card holder. The reality is that gift cards are actually a pretty good gift, even if we feel like it's a cop-out when we give them away. Most people I know … [Read more...] about Deck The Halls

Today I’m sharing one of my make and takes for tomorrow. This is a cute little treat holder that you can use for classroom treats, party favors, or co-worker treats. With the upcoming Holidays, I know that people want to get an early start on getting … [Read more...] about Christmas Is Coming
Having A Ball
Today's card uses the absolutely adorable Let It Snow Suite. I don't know what it is about snowmen, but I love these little guys. And this one in particular looks so happy dancing in the snow trying to catch all the snowballs. I bet you're wondering how I was able to get the bright white snowman here. No, he isn't colored in using white ink. Instead I masked him off using a post it note covering his entire body and nose. Then sponged … [Read more...] about Having A Ball
Merry Christmas!
Oops, I mean happy First Day of Fall. Now that it’s Fall, it’s the perfect time to start sharing more Christmas cards. I know it seems crazy early, but if you plan to make your Holiday cards, you need to start your planning and prep now. Even though I’m game to start sharing Holiday cards, I was worried that the bright traditional red and green colors might be a little much since people are still enjoying their pumpkin … [Read more...] about Merry Christmas!
