Unordinary

August 27, 2008 | Leave a Comment

Life isn’t ordinary. I suppose if it was, we’d have nothing worth documenting, nothing that inspires us, nothing that calls us to action, nothing we would think is worth our time. I am thankful for the little moments, the funny things folks say, the random signs on the side of the road, and the fantastic [...]

American Crafts Cardstock

August 25, 2008 | Leave a Comment

Foundations are important in any project. In my studio, colored card stock is one of my most highly prized art supplies. The thing is, I can make patterned paper with a bit of ingenuity, my digi tools, a scanner, and my printer however, it is the straight up colored infused pieces (no white cores) that [...]

As You Like It

August 24, 2008 | Leave a Comment

This week has been crazy busy in my world….chock filled with interesting people and places. I wanted to share with you a story about a woman I had in class and the incredible lesson we all learned from her.
The premise behind the class was to write about the best day ever and tell your story [...]

Backpacks

August 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment

Back to school is always hard for me. My kids went back to school on Monday and I think we are “almost” back into our routine….. okay, who am I kidding here, if routine is flying by the seat of my pants then, I guess I am being truthful.
Today’s post concentrates on Backpacks. My children [...]

Criss Cross Applesauce

August 16, 2008 | Leave a Comment

When I was a kid, I jumped a lot of rope on the playground. We had a song for everything it seemed although, I would be hard pressed to remember all the words to any one of them now. All I know is, if I tried to jump rope now, not only would I most [...]

Everyday Matters

August 12, 2008 | 1 Comment

Documenting life as it happens often times relies on the ordinary to jog our memories….you know, napkins, matchbook covers, paper towels, duct tape, old receipts from our “Kostanza wallets” to jot a quick note on. In my world, I have 3 little children who say and do the darndest things and yes, there are too [...]

Twinkle Toes

August 11, 2008 | Leave a Comment

My friend Crafty Chica created a FANTASTIC line of glitters you can find at Michael’s that are pretty special too. There is something about glitter that just makes people feel like a rock star I suppose. In my [...]

Why the Olympics Matter

August 8, 2008 | Leave a Comment

For those of you who have had the opportunity to witness the opening ceremonies of the 2008 Olympic Games (I am watching them now), this truly is a historical event. The precision, choreography and artistry are absolutely incredible. The reason I thought about writing about this tonight had nothing to do with the fact that [...]

The Rumor is true….Daisy D’s

August 7, 2008 | Leave a Comment

My heart is breaking to report that yes, the rumors are true, Daisy D’s will be closing their doors. After speaking with the lovely folks there this morning to get confirmation, they will not be printing their new lines and everything is on sale until it is gone (may not apply to the Chloe line).
I [...]
