Butterfly Thank You
I’m sitting here icing my neck. Next will be a warm compress. Don’t worry, I’m fine. My neck (and hip and lower back and upper back.. ok, everything) is just a bit out of wack, so the massage therapist is … Continue reading
fruits of a vintage cards class
Crafty things! Oh yes! I’ve been doing lots of crafting, if little sharing. And planning. Lots of planning. Craft planning, food planning, French-Teacher-Planning, and Mexico-trip-planning. Yep yep. This little gem of a tied up package is from a recent private … Continue reading
Worldy Eggs
My head’s all upset at me for staying up later than should be considered human last night. But hey, my husband must be some kind of a zombie, because he’s always got 2+ hours on my bedtime. To counteract my … Continue reading
A Stack of Butterflies
Work, exercise, bed.. more exercise, and some cooking here and there. That seems to be my life right now, but I somehow managed to squeeze in some stamping time. I taught a class on the weekend for “all occasions cards” … Continue reading

A friend of mine who lives in Australia is getting married next week. Unfortunately, a trip down under wasn’t in the cards for us, especially not on 2 months’ notice. I wanted to make her a gift from the heart … Continue reading

Hey there! I’m not dead, I promise! I’ve just been out of the house a whole heck of a lot (and am finally feeling better)! I started this set of cards, knowing exactly what I wanted to do, on Thursday. … Continue reading
Blue Butterflies
Did anyone notice how sunny it is here today? Blue sky, no clouds, sun, sun, sun! We get a lot of rain in general this time of year, so this sunshine is very much appreciated! Not to mention the fact … Continue reading
Batch of Bugs
I had made a whole shwack of these cute little bug cards. I think they’re pretty elegant in a simple sort of way. I’m super fond of the Thank You! stamp. You can’t see, but the two at the back … Continue reading
Old Book flowers in action
Excited much? I finally got to use my flower that I made. I think it turned out pretty cute, and it adds a nice bit of dimension to the card. Did I mention I like tags? The purple background flowers … Continue reading
Butterfly Bliss
This stamp’s beauty captured me from the beginning. The butterflies and overlapping textures… I think they pair perfectly with the fern-like pattern on the background paper.. and the little butterfly in the top right corner is… devine, non? Materials White … Continue reading
Flowery Wishes
I see glitter, punched out flowers, and a pretty little blend of blue inks. I used this as a birthday card for one of my aunts. It could easily be used for many other occasions.. probably not Halloween though ;-) … Continue reading
