Towards the end of every December I wish that I took the time (when I had some free time in the summer) to prepare better for Christmas. I wish I could create more decorations, gift packaging, goodies, etc. Pinterest is full of ideas I always want to do, but realize I don’t have time to do when the calendar says…

It’s officially Summertime. Finally! After the winter (and all the endless snow) we had this year, Summer couldn’t come soon enough. I love the smell of fresh picked basil, the sandal tan on my feet, blue hydrangeas growing in the yard, ice cream for dinner and watermelon at cookouts. Speaking of watermelon, I found this cute watermelon card on Pinterest:I love…
I have to admit that I have been a little frustrated lately. Each time I visit this/my site, I see “0 Comments” under my headline. Day after day after day. I sometimes wonder if anyone is ever visiting besides me. Well, the other day I decided to comment on my own post to turn that zero into a one. And…
Have you heard that saying before? It’s the “Life is Good” motto. I try to incorporate it into my life whenever I can. Too many times we are rushing around just getting things done (food shopping, cleaning, chauffeuring the kids, etc.). But it’s really important that we include fun things in our days too – even if it’s only for…
Yesterday our town held it’s first (and I hope annual) Summer Fest. We were blessed with warm & sunny weather (despite the early predictions of thunder storms). It seemed as if everyone from our town and surrounding towns were there – and they were all HAPPY. I didn’t hear any crying babies, no whining toddlers, no grumpy teenagers and no…
Welcome back! Last week I showcased some cards with the new You’ve Got this stamp set and I mentioned I would share some photos of the beautiful peonies growing in my yard. I can’t believe how tall they are – next year I need a taller frame to keep them from falling over. You can even see a close up…
This weekend I hosted my Catalog Kick-off Party which was great – thank you to everyone who came! We created with the new colors and products, did a little shopping and eating, and everyone had a great time and went home with a party favor and cards/projects that they made. Turns out, three of them showed up (unknowingly) wearing some…
Today is my niece’s 7th birthday and I had fun playing with new products to make her a special, personalized card. I used the pedestal from the Build a Birthday stamp set in pool party ink, a polka-dotted layer with the Cherry On Top Washi Tape, her name with the Layered Letters Alphabet in the new Watermelon Wonder ink, a…
The sun came out this afternoon, so I just snuck outside with my camera and cards to take some photos before the clouds came back out. We desperately needed the rain, so no complaints here. My flowers and veggies look much happier today than they did a few days ago. “You’ve Got This” is a new stamp set that I am…
