Just thought I would invite you all to come to some of my upcoming classes if you are in or from the Portland,OR area. Its a Card Party! – January 17th at 2pm The hubby will be out of town, so it seems like a perfect time to host a get together. We will be…
So, while away on my trip, I tried posting the pictures from last week. Unfortunately, my internet connection was apparently not good enough to make that happen, so I wanted to get out a quick post this morning. Like I said last week, we had a great time getting ready for the holidays by making…
So Sunday afternoon, we were planning on having a Holiday Gift boxes, bags, and tags workshop. However, due to some illnesses during the week we ended up doing some open craft time and rescheduling the actual class. It looks like the new tentative class date is the evening of Tuesday, Dec 9th (same day as the retired stamp…
Last night my DH was on the phone much of the evening so I had some free time to experiment with some more gift boxes. The first box I designed to be exactly the right size for a DVD or video game (its 8″x5.5″x1.5″). The sides reach all the way to the bottom of the…
So, tomorrow afternoon I have a workshop for making holiday boxes, bags, and gift tags. (Email me if you would like to join us, we’d love to have you!)We’ll be making some of each and like usual, it should be a good time. I wanted to get at least one sample up online ahead of…
Hi all, I just wanted to put up a quick post since I’m being a bit slow this week. Earlier this weekend I must have hurt a back muscle as I haven’t been very mobile the last couple days. I went to the dr this evening and was given prescriptions for some meds which may…
Ack! I suddenly remembered that I forgot to post a sneak peak for the Thank you Stamp-a-Stack on Saturday. We will be making 12 cards total (4 each of 3 different designs) all for only $15! You should join us… you know you want to. : ) Anyway, here is a quick sample of one…

Every first tuesday of the month I offer a technique class to give you a chance to try new things and learn more about some of the techniques you have seen in pictures or on samples. This month we will be trying out heat embossing. With embossing, there are two methods – dry embossing and…
So, tonight is part 2 of our holiday stamp-a-stack. It should be a laid back evening where folks can leisurely finish up their cards and have the chance to play with any of my supplies. Tonight is also when I hand out the door prize! The door prize for tonight is a box to hold…
I told you I had more sketches than necessarily for the Holiday Stamp-a-Stack this Saturday but I decided to make them up anyway. Unfortunately I spent way to much time last night trying to figure out how to make one of my sketches work (it never did end up working) so I only got through…
So, Saturday is the holiday stamp-a-stack and I have been working on creating samples for some of my sketches. Last night, I was planning on getting them all done, but then I remembered I needed to finish glueing together the cardfronts for a card swap I’m in, so while I got all 11 of those…
