Today I have two more You're a Peach projects to share with you... the mini jam jar and a 3x3" card. Yes, that is one tiny card. These are nice for tucking into a gift bag to go with a gift. And with the small size, you can keep the note on the inside very short. Okay, let's talk about these mini jam jars. These are seriously just the cutest little things. They are food safe and I've heard they hold about a quarter cup of liquid or cream. … [Read more...] about More Peaches Please
Sweet Peaches
Do you ever have a weekend where you feel like you actually got a lot accomplished off the to-do list? I felt that way Sunday evening... got lots of little chores around the house done this weekend. Plus, major accomplishment, I finally started tackling the disaster that is my garage. When we had our slab leak last year, the garage became the default catch-all place for boxes when they came back from storage. I worked really hard last year to get … [Read more...] about Sweet Peaches
Peachy Day
It's finally Friday. Hooray! One of the first things I ordered from the brand new Catalog is the You're a Peach Suite. Oh my goodness, the stamps, dies, and the pattern paper in this Suite are so pretty. It's actually kind of funny, that I didn't pick one of the gorgeous flower papers to share first. But I really love the simplicity of this card. This card uses one of our brand new In Colors, Pale Papaya for the card base, ribbon, and … [Read more...] about Peachy Day
So Many Flowers
I'm still playing with the Flowers of Friendship stamp set. Anytime we have a stamp set and punch combo, I'm probably going to buy it. I love my die cuts, but the punch is so quick and easy to work with. The punch cuts out both sizes of flowers and leaves. Cutting out all these flowers and leaves was so quick. You'll notice that there is no sentiment on this card. Sometimes, the better placement for a sentiment is the inside of the card. … [Read more...] about So Many Flowers
Dad Sampler
Today I'm sharing my brand new Sampler in honor of dear old Dad. Oh boy, this was a tough one. What does Dad like? As I thought about it, I realized Dads like a wide variety of things. There are the sporty Dads, hobby Dads, cooking Dads, and Dads who work in an office. I tried to pick things that represent a wide variety of Dads. My Dad didn't golf, but I know a lot of Dads do. My Dad liked nice cars but was usually fairly conservative in the … [Read more...] about Dad Sampler
April Paper Pumpkin-So Cool
April's Paper Pumpkin kit is reminiscent of those sweet Summer days, when you you'd be listening for the music of the coming ice cream truck. As soon as you could hear the faint sounds of music, we'd all run home for ice cream money. The truck would pull up and then the tough choice had to be made... creamsicles, fudgesicles, popsicles, and more. Decisions, decisions... I was always partial to fudgesicles. That ice cold creamy chocolate popsicle … [Read more...] about April Paper Pumpkin-So Cool

Flowers of Friendship
Happy Monday! This is one of my first cards using brand new stamps and paper from the new Annual Catalog. I love the watercolor flowers in the paper. They match the flower stamp so well. I kept the card relatively simple to keep the focus on the pretty flowers. I did make the flowers 3D though to give them a little pop. To do this, I stamped an extra set of flowers and colored and cut them out. I used a glue dot at the base of the flower and … [Read more...] about Flowers of Friendship
