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,…

I hope that you will be able to schedule in some classes and Sunday Stamping, a new offering, into your calendar. Write the dates down now…
Each month for Club, we make two cards and a 3D project. This month’s 3D project was desktop calendars. They were a big hit! (and really easy to make). We used the new Poppy paper and die set that will be available in January. Any papers and punch outs will work (but I really love the poppies). I filmed a…
I was using my Stampin’ Write Markers over the weekend and noticed my Pool Party Marker was a little dry. Did you know you can “re-ink” the Stampin’ Write Markers? Since the debut of the Blends Markers, your Stampin’ Write’s may have taken a back seat (just like mine). Don’t forget about these versatile Stampin’ Write Markers! “Re-ink” the Stampin’…

This is the time of year that most people send out the most amount of cards. Don’t let it be overwhelming! As you are cutting, stamping, and assembling your Christmas cards, find the joy and not the time crunch. As I was making some of my cards today, I thought of a few tips that may help you out with…
