Pretty Party Birthday Favors :: Roree Rumph
Hi Everyone! If you're like me, you have lots of Summer Birthdays coming up. That means lots of oppportunities to use the beautiful Pretty Party collection! I thought I would get a head start and make some fun party favors for one of these upcoming occasions. I decided to make cone shaped pouch...
Love this look and am fan of twine (found some at The Paper Source), too. Great looking gifts and love the seeded tags - Thanks!
Baker's twine + reused box + seed paper tag = fresh and eco holiday gift packaging
I'm a huge fan of baker's twine and this year, I'm pairing it with these plantable seed paper gift tags and neutral-colored gift boxes. Throughout the year, I've been putting aside white and kraft boxes to use at Christmas, and together with the seed paper gift tags, the result is gift packaging...

Meatless Monday Wednesday
Meatless Monday got pushed back a couple of days this week. On Monday I was all set to make one of our favorite dishes with soysage instead of sausage, but for a couple of reasons we ended up picking up pepperoni and bacon pizzas instead. Whoops. And then last night Steph and Pete got taken to t...

I agree with Linda White - Community is key. Follow other writers, editors, publishers on Twitter, like them on Facebook and link to them on LinkedIn. There are so many ways to get connected! I write at my blog http://www.capabilitymom.com for fun and have gotten writing jobs from it - start a blog.
Emerging Writers Network
The EWN has been, hopefully, an ever evolving entity. Starting off in 2000 as an email list to send book reviews to, interviews were added to that sometime early in 2002, and so on up to this point. I recently let the www.emergingwriters.net website go. The reviews and interviews and e-panels...
