Home Decor Project
I don’t do a lot of altered or home decor projects. I’m not sure why other than “time” for me is always, always, always an issue. By the time I complete my layouts for my monthly scrapbooking club and any other obligations, like swaps and blog hops, I have very little time for other projects….
Pigment Inks vs. Dye Inks
I’ve included below the most recent video from Close To My Heart. Monica and Kristine discuss the differences in how pigment inks and dye inks look on both cardstock and pattern papers….pigment is more opaque and vibrant, while dye ink is more translucent and less vibrant. However, I would be lying if I didn’t say I was…
Monogram Magic
I’m so excited! I just purchased a couple of these cute little stamps a couple of days ago and can’t wait to make some “cute litte” cards with them….or whatever else I can come up with…or lift…like the weekly calendar that Kristine and Monica show in this video full of great ideas for the Monogram…
Paper Organization
I honestly have more paper than any one person should ever have. It’s my thing…my favorite thing. In fact, I often try my hardest not to walk by paper when I’m the craft store. If I’m in a scrapbooking store, I intentionally try to focus on anything BUT paper, because if I see pretty paper,…
A Little Bit Country

Gone, but not forgotten.
Yeah…I know. It’s been awhile since I last posted. As was with the last time I went MIA, work is partly responsible. You would think after 9 years of teaching, it would get easier. But thanks to politics and general societal issues, that’s not happening. 😦 In the last month, grades were due, parent conferences…
October Scrapbook Workshop
Again….long time, no see…I mean…no post. Every spare minute seems to be spent on school-related responsibilities. I’ve had virtually no time to create or even respond to many emails (if I owe you an email, I promise, I’ll be in touch soon). However, today I did put the pile of papers that need grading to…
33 days?
Really? It’s been 33 days since the last time I posted to my blog? It hardly seems possible. Where does the time go? Has anyone ever solve that mystery?! You can always tell when school is starting and ending. I disappear from the blogging world. 😦 I must say I’ve missed it. I do enjoy…
