One of those weeks....

Good Morning to you! This past week's been kinda hectic around here. My friend Amanda was induced on Thursday and I had the ultimate honor of coaching her through her labor and delivery of her beautiful baby, CJ. Isn't he cute??

Layers of Color Guest Designer Project : New Release - Holly Angel

Another that nearly slipped through the cracks!

This morning I wanted to share a CPS card from a few weeks back. The Stamps of Life was sponsoring that week and somehow I managed to forget to upload this card as well! I like the fact that clear stamps can be bent and tweaked to fit just the right way for any type of project. For this card I bent the image just a bit so I could have it fill more of... Read more →

See the cute little butterfly layered... Read more →
