This card looked better. Honestly, I made it when I was not at my creative best. I felt like I needed a label of some sort, but couldn't find one I was really happy with and ended up with what I used below. The "wishing" is too long and the "you well" is too small for the white label. And after looking at it for several days, I decided to take it apart and fix it. Now, this one I'm much happier with! I very carefully peeled up the … [Read more...] about Wishing…

Happy St. Patrick’s Day
In honor of St. Patrick's Day, I'm sharing my Magnet Stand kit from last March again. I really like the sentiment in this kit. True friends really are a priceless gem. I still have a handful of these magnet kits left if you missed out getting it last year. This kit is $15 and if you need the magnet stand, it's an additional $5. This kit comes with a color photo, directions, supplies, and the chipboard and magnet to make this. You will need … [Read more...] about Happy St. Patrick’s Day
On The Go Suite
One of our recent Online Exclusive releases is the On The Go Suite. I'm a sucker for anything travel related and this Suite is on its way to me now. One of the items that sold me on this Suite is the treat packaging. I LOVE these mini suitcases. I can't wait to get this Suite next week and start making some fun travel goodies. I'm thinking this will make a fun mini scrapbook. I'm not sure I can make everything fit into the suitcase, … [Read more...] about On The Go Suite
Delightful Wishes
After I wrote Monday's post, I was inspired to get out the Floral Delight Suite. This Suite will coordinate with the March Paper Pumpkin kit. After going through all the paper and stamps, I cannot wait to get the March kit now. This card has a lot going on, but I love all the different layers. The blue plaid paper is from the Vellum pack of paper. Seriously, this paper is absolutely gorgeous and I'm just getting started using it. And those … [Read more...] about Delightful Wishes

More Kits
My friends tell me I should subscribe to more kits so I have stuff to work on when we go to crafting events. Honestly, me attending a crafting event (instead of working one) is few and far between. But I do stress over what I should take with me each time. Then they remind me that if I had kits to work on, I would't need to stress about what to bring because our kits are all-inclusive. One of the new kits this month is Maritime Moments. I … [Read more...] about More Kits
Heirloom Arrangements Kit
I just received the Heirloom Arrangements kit in the mail from Stampin Up and I'm thrilled with this kit. I haven't had a chance to put all the cards together yet, but wanted to share what they look like. This is the photo from the Stampin Up website. I do buy a lot of kits from Stampin Up to take to the various craft events that I work at, but I don't keep a copy of each kit myself. That would be really hard to keep up with since we … [Read more...] about Heirloom Arrangements Kit
