How-To Video: Mini Photo Album & 7Gypsies Binderie GIVEAWAY!
Hello. I have a video and great giveaway today. You all know what a big fan I am of great crafting tools. Well, I was putting together a little mini photo album the other day (a simple design that I make often) and realized that it used many of my favorite tools. So I decided to do a video sh...

My friend Lauren created an amazing card using Sketch 06 from a new to me sketch challenge blog, Unscripted Sketches. I decided to use this week's Sketch 07 with Dawn's Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #7. I tried to stay true to only the three colors in my design, although I kept trying to ad...

Today has been an odd day. I'm still trying to process it all, and thought I'd share. We'll start with this morning. 6:30 am. I get out of the shower. I'm running late. I am drying off, dragging the comb through my hair... the usual stuff. Jake runs into the room and climbs on the bathtub ...
You need to start writing a book...
As a political junkie, I just love how you transform the news of the day into all these stamping scandals! Maybe if you followed Canadian politics, I could similarly be as interested in what goes on in our Parliament!

Dear Paperlicious: From "Mr DP"
Dear Paperlicious (aka Joan) has been removed from control of her blog by a unanimous vote of her family. The impeachment was prompted by evidence found in her emails that she was engaged in a pay for play scandal, accepting free stamping goods in exchange for postings on her blog. Joan boy...

OMG...nuff said. And I am about to jump through my TV and kill Andrea Mitchell of NBC who says that Biden will have to change his style in their debate since she is a woman. I thought the whole point of feminism was so that we were treated exactly the same. I hope he goes after her foreign policy credentials just as if she were Tom Ridge or Mitt Romney. Ahem...what credentials?

Oh I love this set! It's a floral set, so that's a given, but it's also a 2-step stamping set, which for those who are colouring challenged like me, this is perfect. Of course you can also colour if you're so inclined, which is another reason I love this set! It's called "Beautiful Things"...
