    Welcome to November and fun new blog hop with the Inspire, Create, Share gals!  We’ve decide to do something a little bit different this month and we are pulling out our Paper Pumpkin boxes for this month (technically they are from October, but hey, November’s kits don’t ship until after November 10th, so you have…

  • Bright Birthday Card with a Swirly Scribbles Thinlits Bouquet

    When I start working on a project, sometimes I have a plan in mind, but often I turn to pinterest or google image search to give me a starting point for my project.  Most of the time, I end up mixing and matching my favorite ideas from multiple cards into one card.  But sometimes I…

  • Beautiful Backgrounds from Moroccan Nights

    Way back at Stampin’ Up OnStage in April, I was given the Moroccan Nights stamp set (love the perks of getting free stamps when you go to demonstrator events! ).  But the problem was, it wasn’t a stamp set I had really looked at before or thought was my style.  Which meant it sat on…

  • Cheery Thanks Peek-a-Book card with Pop of Pink Washi

    Are you like me and after you’ve taken a little bit of time off from getting into your craft room, you return to sit and stare at your supplies thinking, “I really want to make something cute, but have NO IDEA what to make or where to get started!” I swear, getting my groove back…

  • Clean & Simple Elegant Thank You card with Suite Seasons

    So, last month, I ran a big event for Pacific Northwest Stampin’ Up demonstrators.  It wasn’t limited to my team, but anyone who wanted to come connect, share, and learn.  As part of the event, I created 4 make & take projects for them to get to play with new goodies from the 2016 Holiday…

  • You Are Awesome! Say it with Marquee Messages

    Maybe it is because I grew up in the 80s and 90s, but I just love the word “Awesome” and love to use that to tell people how much I think of them.   So, when I got the Marquee Messages stamp set and saw it had the phrase “you are awesome”… well, I knew…

  • Note of Thanks with the Detailed Floral Thinlit die

    I’m back!  My family finally did what you are supposed to do during Summer Vacation and took an actual vacation!  We took the kiddos on a “Grandma Tour” to visit each of their Great-Grandparents around the US, which meant we traveled to Spokane, WA… Phoenix, AZ… and Kansas City (well Olathe), KS.  It was lots…
