Summer Sunshine Wishes!
I’m sharing some “Sunshine” with you today! You will find details below for my upcoming Sunshine Wishes class and a yummy recipe full of sunshine at the bottom of this post! I’m starting however, with some insight on waiting… for sunshine.
It’s been a challenging Summer for me to work on any projects that require using my hands. I’ve been dealing with a “trigger thumb” since early Spring. And of course it’s on my dominate right hand that I need everyday. I thought I was just overworking it and tried to give it some rest. It’s amazing how much we use our thumb. I can’t even begin to tell you how many things I have dropped… and broken in the last few months. Continue reading
Quick and Simple Spring Tablescape
We had a blessed Easter with family and friends celebrating our Risen Lord. It was such a treat to have ALL our kiddos home and even a few extra. The pic above of our table shows the calm before the storm. I think this is the first year I actually gave in and used paper and plastic plates. GASP!!! I know… I couldn’t believe it either. But as I was setting up the table Saturday night I didn’t want to spend my time on Easter hand washing all those china dishes. It’s okay to take a break some years and as our family continues to grow and move out our time with all of them here together is priceless. Continue reading

Beautiful Nature Decorated Eggs
I can remember as a little girl collecting little treasures from nature and making all kinds of fun new creations with them, everything from a clover ring, a crown of leaves to a beautiful braided necklace of wild flowers to hang around my neck. Continue reading
Stamp-A-Stack of Christmas Cards
I usually hold my Christmas Card Stamp-A-Stack sooner so I’m a little behind this year. November was crazy in the studio. But I would love to have you join me if you still need to make your Christmas cards. I have everything cut and ready for you and all you have to do is come stamp and assemble. This is always a favorite annual event. Please let me know right away which time works best for you so I can save your spot and prep enough cards.
PLEASE Register no later than Thursday December 11th
Blessings and Happy Stampin!

Christmas Sugar Scrub
A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of sharing a quick and fun DIY project with Mom Connection, a group of young moms at my church. When I was asked to come up with a creative activity lots of ideas went through my head. Young moms definitely need to feel loved, appreciated and pampered so I decided to share with them how to make a yummy homemade sugar scrub. Sugar scrubs are such a simple way to pamper yourself and they make a wonderful gift during the Christmas season. Continue reading
Christmas Bottle Tags
Tonight my Stamp Club gals had a fun night creating Christmas Bottle Tags. Handmade tags are a great way to personalize a bottle of wine or sparkling cider… or anything that comes in a bottle for that matter. Any bottle personalized with your handmade tag can make the perfect gift during the Holiday season as well as other special occasions throughout the year.
I wish you could see just how pretty this tag is. The Satin Gold Ribbon is so beautiful! Continue reading

We all love receiving gifts. But I’ve found that the joy found in giving can not even compare. This FREE Tutorial is my gift to you. You will find the link below.

Where did Summer go?
Wow! I’ve been neglecting my blog a bit this Summer. I truly feel like the kids just got off the bus on the last day of school… YESTERDAY!
It’s an annual tradition on our court for the parents to welcome our kids home by blasting them with water balloons and super soakers as they get off the bus. They may run but…
And then this happened…
So yeah… I really do feel like we just did all this yesterday… but then reality sets in. Summer has come and gone and it’s already back to school. Summers seem to go by quicker each year. I spent the Summer trying to soak up treasured time with my family and I didn’t post except for quick updates on Instagram and Facebook. It’s a good thing I have those to look back on or I wouldn’t believe we actually had a Summer… it went way too fast.
In another post I’ll share about some fun things that happened this Summer but for now I want to share about the AMAZING DEALS happening right now!!! And they too are going by quickly and I need to tell you about them so you don’t miss out.
