It is New Year’s Eve, and that often means reminiscing about the past year, and looking forward and planning for the new year to come. I know not too many people send New Year’s cards, but one year I just couldn’t get Christmas cards sent, so instead I sent New Year’s cards. It was a great way to kick off the new year, and wish all my friends and family the very best for the coming year.

Today I have part 2 in my series of Christmas Over The Years. Projects that we have made over the years, some newer, and some from several years ago. I hope you enjoy this look back and recognize some of these.
Read MoreThe Christmas season is filled with sweet treats, and today I have another treat holder for you. This one will hold a box of Smarties, or a chocolate bar, and you can also put in a gift card if you like. We made these for teachers at a recent class, and everyone loved them!
Read MoreEveryone loves a little treat, and at Christmas it is always nice to have a little treat for people you see. These little packages are great for that. They are quick and easy to make, and they have a sweet treat waiting inside.
Read MoreHave you seen the Frozen 2 movie that is out? I haven’t seen it yet, but I suspect it is wonderful. I loved Olaf when the first Frozen movie came out, and put him on a number of 3D items. It is time to update him for the new movie, so here is my new Olaf!
Read MoreAre you looking for a cute little box to hold a Christmas gift? I have a tutorial for a wonderful little box for you today. You can fill it with some gift tags, candy, or as my kids say, money fits nicely into almost anything!!
Read MoreWe are getting to the time of year where we need to be thinking about Christmas gifts, and packaging for them. Some people can be difficult to buy for, and if you want that perfect gift, we all know a gift card fits every size!!
Read MoreFall has arrived, but (thankfully!) we still have some beautiful summer-like days in store, at least where I am!! Fall inspires us with the beautiful coloured leaves, deeper hues in our clothing, and rich coloured decorations.
Read MoreI had so much fun preparing for our wedding. It was a very “paper-crafted” wedding, with lots of handmade decor that reflected the joy MSH (My Sweet Husband) and I felt as we shared our vows with family and friends. These were the table favours and name place cards I made for each of our guests.
Read MoreHave you started your Christmas wrapping? Why not upcycle some bags you have around with some of the cute Designer Series Paper we have. There are lots of different ones to choose from, such as the Santa’s Workshop SDSP I used for my bag.
Read MoreWhen I sat in my craft studio to create the projects for today’s post, I just wanted to make some tags. We are at the point where we are wrapping and tagging gifts to go under the tree, so here are some gift tags to inspire your crafting.
Read MoreI was at OnStage recently, and shared a room with 2 great friends. We always like to share little gifts with our roommates, so I made these note pads for them.
Read MoreYesterday was my sister Patrice’s birthday, and her son’s decided to surprise her with a dinner of 35-40 of her closest friends and family! It wasn’t a milestone birthday, because they figured that would never surprise her, but it is always fun to celebrate your special day, no matter what the age. Here is the birthday card I made for her.

Read MoreYesterday we celebrated my daughter's birthday, so now I can post this super fast and easy upcycle project for you. My daughter loves everything from Bath and Body Works, and I must admit that I really like them too. In addition to their wonderful products, they have super cute bags with a blue check pattern. The bags also include a great big logo, so they are not perfect to use as a gift bag as is, but that is easy to fix.
Read MoreWhen I was invited to my very first Stampin' Up! Workshop, I had no idea what to expect. While I had done crafts all my life, I had never really done any stamping, or made my own greeting cards. I really hadn't done a lot of papercrafting of any type. We made a Christmas card that was lovely, but then . . . we made a Bagalope. We turned a plain white envelope into a beautiful gift bag. . . and it was easy to do!!
