Last Friday, I announced a couple new programs that I was starting: 24-7 Ink Rewards, Free Catalogs and using a Host Code on your online orders. As I mentioned these items are exclusive to me and cannot be redeemed through other Demonstrators. The details for each Program is listed in the links across the top of my page. Well, Stampin Up just announced they are offering a special for July. For every $50 USD you spend (pre-tax and shipping) … [Read more...] about Paradise
OnStage April 2016 – Tip Top Taupe
This past April, I was fortunate to be selected to be an OnStage Display Stamper. What does it mean to be selected to be a Display Stamper? It means that I was selected to make projects that were up on display for all the Demonstrators to see at the OnStage Live Event in Salt Lake City. This would be the first time other demonstrators would be seeing new products being used. It was a totally amazing experience and I was thrilled to be … [Read more...] about OnStage April 2016 – Tip Top Taupe
Christmas in July!

I take a lot of pictures. My husband takes even more than me. We used to be more conservative in our picture taking when we still actual film. We'd routinely have four or five rolls to be developed at a time. In fact, I used to have a basket where we'd keep the shot rolls before we developed them. We switched over to digital cameras shortly after they came out. We love digital photography. We love the freedom of taking a ton of pictures and then … [Read more...] about 280,432
What’s With All The Leftovers?
As a mom, I love leftovers. In fact, I look forward to leftover night because it means I don't have to cook! When the kids were younger, we'd have a leftover night once a week. I would get all the containers of leftovers we'd accumulated over the last couple days and it was first come, first served. Until I started doing this, I never saw kids so eager to pick out leftovers for dinner. Now that I have two teenagers, there are never any left … [Read more...] about What’s With All The Leftovers?
Five Minute Friday – The Struggle Is Real
Let's face it, crafting for men is really hard. In general, men are not “savers”. They don’t like to keep things. They appreciate the sentiment in the moment, but then they move on. After being married for almost 20 years, I get it. And even though I know my card may end up in the trash, I still take the time to handmake cards for the men in my life. For me, it’s not just about the card itself. I want them to know they are important to me. And … [Read more...] about Five Minute Friday – The Struggle Is Real
Only 185 More Days Until Christmas!
Okay, be honest, did you just gasp there? Seriously, the days are sailing by at light speed. Before you know it, Back To School supplies will be on sale and Halloween will be right around the corner. And once the Halloween decorations come out, the rest of the holidays will be here as well. Like I said, it's almost 2017. It is not too early to start working on those Christmas projects that never quite seem to get done every year. (Admit it, … [Read more...] about Only 185 More Days Until Christmas!
Failure Is Not An Option, Part 2
A few weeks ago I shared this post here where we tried to make our own texture paste at one of our Downline Meetings. Here's a quick look at that card again. Some were slightly better than others, but most of them were similar to this. I promised that I would revisit this technique and see if I could get better results. Lyndi and I got together to give it a try using the same exact stamp set that Sara Douglass used in her sample. We … [Read more...] about Failure Is Not An Option, Part 2
