Tomorrow I’ll be back at the Just Crop Retreat in Fullerton. I’m looking forward to seeing all the happy crafters at the Retreat. It is always so inspiring to see what everyone is working on. Afterwards, I just want to go home and make things. Today, I’m sharing one of the two make & takes I’ll have at the Retreat tomorrow. This make & take uses the Follow Your Art Suite of products. This is such a fun Suite – perfect for any … [Read more...] about Happy Friday!

There’s no such thing as too many flowers
The Perennial Essence pattern paper in the Annual Catalog is some of the prettiest paper I've ever seen. The floral images look like Monet painted them. Every time I pull out the paper to use it, I seriously debate the merits of using and sharing it versus hoarding it forever. Then I just remind myself, I can always buy more! This time I'm using it and sharing it with you. This paper looks so pretty with the Purple Posy card … [Read more...] about There’s no such thing as too many flowers
Card Class Tomorrow
I've been working like crazy to get the next card class put together for the Retreat that I'll be at tomorrow. And I still have so much to do! I wanted to share a quick sneak peak of the cards we'll be making. This is a big Retreat, bigger than any I've worked in the past. Like twice the amount of people! Oh my goodness! I'm a little nervous but that's okay. I just keep reminding myself that everything will be okay. Well, I've got to get … [Read more...] about Card Class Tomorrow
July Thank You’s
It’s that time of the month again… July’s Customer Thank You cards were sent out last week. If you made a purchase online or at an event, you should have received your thank you card. If you purchased the Daisy Lane bundle from me last month, there was a little thank you gift inside your card. This is one of my favorite tasks every month - sharing a little love with my customers. This month I used the You Always Deliver stamp set to make a UPS … [Read more...] about July Thank You’s
Fall is just around the Corner
Ugh! Summer is almost over. Just another week for Evan before College starts again and two more weeks for Maddie before she starts her Senior year of high school. Club soccer season kicked off this past weekend and we have three tournaments this month. If you're looking for me, I'll probably be at a soccer field somewhere in SoCal. So, Fall really is just around the corner. And with the start of Fall, we have the start of the Stampin Up … [Read more...] about Fall is just around the Corner
Follow Your Heart
I can't tell you how thrilled I was to see another stamp set in the Catalog with craft supplies. The Follow Your Art Suite has just the cutest combination of craft supplies and pattern paper. I had die cut a bunch of extra pieces for the card in a box I shared on Wednesday and I still had a bunch of those mini clipboards sitting around. I knew the clipboard would be perfect for a smaller version of the card in a box. I used the same mini … [Read more...] about Follow Your Heart
Sending You Love In A Box
If you've ever spent any time on Pinterest, you'll have noticed that there are literally thousands and thousands of different card ideas. One unique card style that I love is the card in a box. This card is really nice that it folds flat for mailing or gift giving. Then when the recipient opens the card, it opens to a 3D box. This is such a neat effect for the person receiving the card.The novelty behind this card is that when it … [Read more...] about Sending You Love In A Box
