16 years have gone by WAY too fast……

Memo Notebook “Purse”
About 6 months ago I attended a friend’s workshop where we made these sweet little “Purses” from a 4 1/2 x 3 1/4 inch Memo Notebook. Right after the workshop I went and purchased several of these little notebooks so I could recreate these using Close to my Heart products. Well, I finally got around […]
April Stamp of the Month “Flower Pot”
Sometimes we get into a rut of using colors that are popular and current. For me, I have a hard time putting colors together. Not that I am not capable, but it is SO much easier to have the professionals do it….like when I browse through CTMH’s Idea Books, the color combos are already put […]

My “Play” Space
I am NOT the most organized person on the planet……I know, such a shock to those who know me! LOL I really do try to get organized but I never really STAY organized. I especially find it hard to organize and keep organized in my scrap room. I am always looking for bins, containers, shelves […]
