I had this idea brewing on how to make a cute baby card using the Guide Lines set, so yesterday during Caleb's nap time I set out to create it. However, it turned into a Valentine's card instead…ha ha. I didn't even use the stamps I had originally intended. You gotta go with the flow. [...]

I had planned to participate in Papertreyink's Blog Hop this month but managed to finish my cards too late to upload on time. Oh well, there is always another chance. =) The challenge was to create a birthday card using at least one PTI product. A good idea since it's just the beginning of the [...]

It is such a beautiful day here in Portland. It's chilly but the sun is shining and there is not a cloud in the sky. I love it! I've been thinking about this blog of mine…I never considered myself a writer, I never wrote diaries (though I owned many pretty ones) and I really didn't [...]

My DH and I have been kicking around the idea of starting a stamping-related business for a while now. We’ve come up with a number of ideas, but don’t want to sink our savings into something unless it has a good chance of succeeding — our son’s might need braces one day after all. =) [...]

Well, I'm back in the states again after a lovely, restful and fun vacation in Sweden. Though I miss my family like crazy it's still nice to back in my own home. Getting back into my regular routine is nice. I thought I would post one of the cards I made for my mom for [...]
