Happy Thanksgiving! I'm thankful for a lot of things, but wanted to mention how thankful I am that YOU are coming to read my blog. I truly appreciate it…

Several months ago (yes, it's taken me this long to get this post together), we went into West Coast Modern and found out that they do custom upholstery. We got a quote for new sofa cushions,…

Since 2010, I have played along with Ali Edwards' project, December Daily. With each one, I attempted to document the entire month (instead of just 25 days), but don't think I was ever successful…

For some upcoming projects, I got a chance to visit the Varga Store headquarters. I first fell in love with their location in Santa Monica many years ago when walking along Main Street…

This time of year I love to send out cards of gratitude to those I love. Even though we thank them all year it is nice to put some of those things to words every now and then…

Every time I get a package from Evalicious, I get excited. Her little stamps, embellishments, stickers and new wood veneers are just adorable and the perfect accents to any paper crafting projects…

Shop for the latest collection at your local scrapbook stores and online at Scrapbook.com and Simon Says Stamp!…

Excited to have a guest post up on the Plugged In With Papercrafts & Scrapbooking blog. Hope you'll check it out and enter for a chance to win a Creative Options Medium Grab N Go rack!…

Color is one of the things that inspires my layouts the most. I love seeing different color combos and trying them out on my page…

I can't even handle how adorable Jack is sometimes. He wore this little onesie and I could not believe how much older he looks!…

I'm constantly amazed at the kindness of creatives. You may remember this post about Buster. Several days later, I saw this on Instagram and was so touched by the incredible gesture and caption. Then I got this happy mail a few weeks later:…

I'm back in Florida for a few days. The last time I was here was for a very special occasion. My best friend's wedding is featured on this wedding blog and I'm overjoyed to be able to relive her big day…

Greetings from Florida! On JC's last trip to NY, he picked up these cool Yellow Owl Workshop stamps for me. He said he thought they would be perfect for using on Jack's thank you cards if I felt so inclined to making them by hand. Well, I thought I would, but ended up just using them along with my favorite inks and supplies to make some quick crafts…

Hi! I'm currently out of town working on something pretty big that will be announced in December. I've had several requests asking to see the newest embroidery stencil kit in the Stitched collection…

Thanks to Creative Options, I gave myself the gift of organization! I popped into one of my favorite stores, Urbanic to do some early holiday planning and shopping…

Recently I received some happy mail in the form of a Russian magazine which did a feature on me. So cool to see and hold in my hands even though I can't read it. Thanks so much Anastasia and Scrap-Info!…
