The most popular item selected as a free gift from my January Open House was the “Make a Splash” host set. I think 7 people ordered it, which made me think of using it for an entire class. I had a lot fun coming up with designs using all the fishes, fish bowl and crab. As you will see in…
I am 100% behind the bee trend that is happening. Bees are so important to our planet, gardens, food, sustainability and their work ethic is amazing. I have a stained glass bee hanging on my studio window that I bought in Salt Lake City (Utah is the Bee Hive state) when I was there for a Stampin’ Up! event a…
Beginning today and until March 31, you will have even more free Sale-a-Bration items to choose from with your orders. Fantastic!!!! Two new sets of papers and three new stamp sets.

Are you a paper hoarder? Are the Designer Series Papers just “too nice” to use? Do you save every scrap? If you answered yes to any of these three questions, then I am here to tell you to use your papers. They are doing no good sitting in your drawer or paper stack unseen. Below is a great template showing…

I am absolutely in love with this card! Or should I say I “amour” it? I saw this card on Pinterest and knew I needed to make it, but the designer did not give any directions or measurements. I figured it out and wanted to share it with you so you could make it too. The best part about the…
Sunday and Monday’s Open House was fantastic with returning and new attendees! 17 Women came on Sunday and 6 on Monday and they all loved the projects and new products. I think the two favorite sets were Sale-a-Bration’s Happy Birthday to You and Parisian Beauty from the Jan-June Mini catalog. Below are photos of the event and the cards (with…

Yesterday at Club we made these fun Eiffel Tower, watercolored bookmarks. I love bookmarks – to use, to make and to give away. Sometimes I even leave a bookmark I’ve made in a library book as a gift for the next reader. I struggled a little bit on figuring out a way to attach the bookmark tassel in a clean…
I needed to send out a bunch of cards yesterday, but had limited time to create them. Does this ever happen to you?? I have a couple of helpful solutions and I thought I would share them with you. 1. Check your stash first and think differently. A “thinking of you” card can be used for thank you and birthday, not just…

Two project posts in two days using Poppies! This notebook is the second of the projects I made using the Poppies paper and die cuts. I think the desktop calendar from yesterday and this notebook coordinate beautifully and can be given as a gift either together, or by themselves. These embellished jr. legal pad notebooks make great gifts for teachers,…
