Somebunny To Love
Easter is right around the corner and I thought it would be nice to have some new Easter decor this year. I found these frames online and they are relatively inexpensive. Perfect for a small piece like this that will only be on display for a month or so. To make the layered frame, I used some glue dots to hold the pink and white frames together. Then on the back side, I used our foam strips to tape the two pieces together. You could also use … [Read more...] about Somebunny To Love

March Paper Pumpkin-Ten Years of Growth
Happy Monday! Since I was so late sharing the February Paper Pumpkin Kit, I wanted to share the March kit right away. March's kit is our 10th Anniversary kit.

Stop And Smell The Flowers
It's officially Spring, even though we are still having lots of cold rain here in Southern California. I'm manifesting warm sunny weather by bringing out all the flowers and sunshine today. The Rain or Shine Suite is just adorable. I know I already said that, but just look at this cute little turtle out for a stroll in the garden. So cute! The dies in this set include lots of fun extras, like the bridge and the grass in this card. The … [Read more...] about Stop And Smell The Flowers
Rain or Shine Suite
This Suite has been very popular since the January-April Catalog was released and this is the first chance I've had to get it out and play with it. The critters in the set are just the cutest. My favorite is the bunny dancing in the rain. The pattern paper is amazing in this set. It's hard to see here, but the raindrops are all embossed and shiny. It almost makes them look wet on the card. The Rain or Shine Suite was out of stock for … [Read more...] about Rain or Shine Suite
February Paper Pumpkin-Sunshine & Smiles
I'm late in sharing the February Paper Pumpkin kit. I usually share it much earlier in the month, but it jut didn't happen this time. This kit is so cute and it coordinates with the Rain or Shine Suite in the January - April Catalog. Don't worry, I'll be sharing that Suite soon. The February kit also had a coordinating product available that was a first for Paper Pumpkin... it had matching dies! The die set was two dies and it cut out the … [Read more...] about February Paper Pumpkin-Sunshine & Smiles
You’re The Cherry!
Happy Friday! While milkshakes are oh so fabulous, I'm partial to a bowl of ice cream. There are so many wonderful flavors of ice cream.. mint chip, chocolate, sea salt carmel just to name a few. It's sounds kind of funny, but I have different favorites depending on the brand of ice cream. Generic would be mint chip and it has to be the green ice cream of course. Ben Jerry's is Glampfire Trail Mix or Minter Wonderland. Grocery store is … [Read more...] about You’re The Cherry!
