I have a quickie card today. Just something cute and fun using one of the sentiments from the In Stitches Tia set, and papers from Cosmo Cricket, AC and a Sass banner sticker. I was trying to come up with something simple. I've been reading thru all the comments from the giveaway I started on Friday (keep'em coming!) and I feel so inspired! I have a few ideas that I'm going to start working...

I had mentioned I was going to do it and I finally did! WOOT! My drawers and piles were really a mess and frankly a bummer. That's when I realized I had some things that I wouldn't use so why did I have them?Light bulb moment! rckhnds So instead of throwing stuff away, I'm going to give it away! Each box or envie is a mystery prize. I've only included things that I thought someone could use...

A few weeks ago Pintrest updated their terms of service and in the next couple days are going to be rolling out another update. When the hubbubfirst started about their terms of service it caused a lot of people to close down or quit using their accounts, I was one of those people. I quit using mine to wait and see what changes would be made. Since then Pintrest has made an update to their...

I have a new Speed Coloring video to share with you today! This is the one I mentioned was coming on Monday, my Black & White coloring of Royal. The original time was 45 minutes but I shrunk it down to 10. This is my first time coloring a B&W image, and like I mentioned Monday it really makes you think alot about contrast, color, shadow and highlight. I totally recommend it if you'...

Today we are revealing Renew. Poor Renew here has gone thru a series of names before me settling on one (more out of time constraints than anything else lol). She totally reminds Melissa of Pride & Prejudice and I can totally see the vibe! She looks like she's simply climbed a grassy knoll and set herself down in the grass to soak up the peace and quiet. *inhale... exhale...* That feel is...

Today is Release Day! :DD I'm always excite when its time to release some more stamps (the clear especially bc there's so much more work involved) but for some reason these 2 have stolen my heart. When I draw up a design, they seem to take on a life of their own so I end up talking about them like they are their own person/animal/thing. That may seem kind of weird but that's just how I;...

I thought this card might be appropriate given the week :) It might be a kind of girly card but the sentiment still fits. I don't think dude will mind lol. I used papers from American Crafts (Dear Lizzy and Amy Tangerine), Cosmo Cricket and Sassafras, the blooms are Sass too. From my horde of Sass that I'm gingerly dolling out. Miss them tons!Gwen (from the Gwen in Bloom Some Odd Girl)...

Today is the day my baby boy turns 5! 5 Big years old! Its really ridiculous , in the last few months we've seen alot of growing up in him and he had a time when he went thru the terrible two's that he never went thru when he was two but he's made a big turn around and now he's 5! *insert big mommy sigh* So since he can take goodies in for his big day and his fav thing on the planet it seems...

I'm working on some new digi designs. I'm a bit, or more than a bit, behind of where I want to be running toward CHA but I'm getting there! This little one is going to be one of the May Digi Release that is my current topic of work. I think she's turning out really cute! For some reason her hat was a real stumper for a while, I simply couldn't get the angle to look quite like I wanted. She...

I've seen a lot of cupcake-y projects around lately and since I'm on my diet and I can't have one :noes: I thought I'd make one. Gotta get the demon out of your brain somehow! lol. I used Baker Mae and wen't totally Betty Crocker with her with the retro-y papers from Cosmo Cricket. I'm the first to admit I am NOT the best baker but I spent 3 years as the Head Cake Decorator at a busy...
