Let me start by saying that I LOVE designing in monochromatic color schemes. They are very pleasing to me, and before I had the options of My Digital Studio, I did not use a lot of contrasting color schemes or Designer Papers in my scrapbooks, because I was intimidated by them! With MDS, I love…
I LIVE for Tuesdays! It's very rare that I am not up at 11 pm on Monday when they post for me. I thought I'd try to start sharing them here and making it a little easier for you to find them 🙂 Click on the links to go to my store for complete information…
It's a beautiful day, and that alone is a great resone to smile. I had lots of reasons to smile this weekend! Visits from very important people in my life, my husband's first weekend off in 3 years and some precious little 2 year old hands clasped behind my neck in a wonderful hug. What…
Ok, so I guess I wasn't technically breaking the rules…just not really following them (can you tell I have tried to use that excuse before?) Mandy suggested that we show off some swatchbook projects this week for the Bloh Hop…. I have a confession. I haven't made a swatchbook, and honestly, just coming off of…
Being as I am a MDS junkie, I am super super excited about this! There are some amazing enhancements coming to MDS. I remember speaking to several of the "techies" last year at Convention and running thoughts past them. I am really looking forward to this and will for sure let y'all know when it's…
I've never been brave enough before, I almost didn't go through with it this time, I almost gave up…. This time was different. Thursday evening I received a call from Stampin' Up! letting me know I was one of the Top 20 finalists for the Artisan Award /Design Team. I'm still in shock. I never…
This week we were challenged to create a project focusing on a Celebration! I chose to create a scrapbook page featuring my youngest son's 1st Birthday. I expecially loved being able to coordinate the page with all of the fun details I created for his party. I worked on this last week, and I must…
Well, with Father's Day on Sunday, I thought that this week would be a great week to focus on the Dads or other men in our lives, so that is what I challenged the Hoppers with this week. I know it's not a big stretch for me, being as I focus on my Hubs and…
Holly challenged us to create a "hybrid" project for this week. A hybrid is where you add traditional papercrafting elements to a digital project. I told her yesterday that there was no way I could do it. I had too much going on….(seriously, I have WAY too much going on!) ANYHOW, so I was sitting…
Don't you LOVE seeing new things? I know I do! What's even more, I love PLAYING with new things!!! As a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, one of my favorite perks is being able to preorder things. When I saw this MDS disk available for Hostesses, I thought I'd give it a try. I must admit, at…
