I love a good aquarium. I love seeing the underwater life. I'm not a scuba diver and I don't own my own yellow submarine, so the only way for me to see the fish is at an aquarium. The pretty colors, the scary teeth, it's all so amazing! Several people have asked what I do with the samplers. I use them as home decor pieces in my home. I change it out every month seasonally. Several customers have used them in scrapbooks, and another uses them … [Read more...] about July Sampler-Under The Sea

May's kit is a perfect one for more masculine themes with Father's Day coming up next month. In fact, one of the stamps in this kit says "Happy … [Read more...] about May Paper Pumpkin-The Best There Is
