It’s almost time for the new 2022 Occasions Catalog to begin! And with new catalogs come new Paper Shares. I’m announcing the 2022 Occasions Catalog Paper Share. I pre-ordered all the papers so I could see them in person (the tiny pictures in the catalogs don’t do them justice) and start using them to show you. Wait until you see…
This is a fun project for this time of year when all we want to see is Christmas lights. These are mini paper lanterns, or luminaries. A little smaller than an old fashioned school milk carton. Follow along with my video to create your own. Substitute any die or shape that you need. Pause the video when you need to.…

I am in love with this card! I loved the original I saw online which was pink, but I didn’t have the necessary pink ribbon so I turned my version into blue (I love blue Christmas cards). That’s what we do, see something to copy and/tweak to fit the supplies we have. We put photos, tips and videos online, for…

I hope you had a wonderful day with family and/or friends eating and enjoying whatever traditional Thanksgiving dish and activities you love. Ours was a bit more traditional this year with turkey and all the fixings and chicken (for my daughter who doesn’t like turkey). We finished off the day with apple crisp and leftover birthday cake. Last year, because…

If you have read some of my previous blog and Facebook posts, then you know I am all about versatility. I like my stamp sets to have more than one use. Forever Ferns is a stamp set that fits that criteria. It’s a great one to use as the main focus, the background and for many reasons and occasions. A…
I saw a similar card online and fell in love with the “graphicness” off it. Cohesive stripes in all different directions but work together. I thought this would be a perfect card for Club Class (and I was right). I had plenty of the Sale-a-Bration Hand Penned paper left over which is why I chose to do the card in…
