Hello! Years ago when I was a full-time scrapbooker, I met a lot of kind people on the 2Peas message board. One was Debbi, who hosted challenges based on my books. Debbi now is over on the CSI Challenge Blog and asked me if I would be a guest. I had to say yes – [...]
Hey there, fellow addicted stampers. I just wanted to share a video I did for Studio Calico. I used their awesome March kits, along with Hero Arts Soft Shadow Inks and Mid-Tone Shadow Inks. Here is the video… Here is the layout. A giant photo of pregnant me in the water. Boy do I wish [...]
Hello! I wanted to share with you a video I created for Studio Calico. It shows using stamps in a not-so-normal-way and covering wood accents. (Each month, I will be doing two videos for them – one using their online kits and one using their products sold in stores.) I adore using these kits. For [...]
Hello! I am in full recovery mode right now… trying to recover from the whirlwind of Stampaway! I love that this show is in my neck of the woods and that I get to see many of the same stampers year after year. My Shari was in town staying with us so we could teach [...]

A new year. A fresh start. I am not a big resolution-maker as I think they just put too much pressure on you. But one thing I have started to do in the past few weeks is to stay on top of my photos. To take more photos, to edit them and to print them. [...]

Hello! I haven't been very good about updating you all on the Cards for Kids status. We are still collecting any cards – handmade, store-bought, anything – and I am extending the deadline to 12/31/10. We will then start another round. If you want to send holiday cards, please mail them by 12/16. The more [...]
Hi! Hope you all had a good weekend. Did a ton of catching up and a bit of falling behind. Seems that is the way it works. Thought I would share a few old scrapbook pages for kicks. This one was in a CK article on coloring. Those hearts are embossed with embossing folders and [...]
…when you stumble upon an old scrapbook page filled with favorite photos from years ago… Boy. What a great feeling that is. (And yes, I have always loved buttons.) (And yes, this makes me want another baby.) Happy day.
