Fall is here – unless, of course, you live in Miami, Florida. The weather is hot, humid and pretty much feels like the dead of summer. I would love to see the leaves change, but that just doesn’t happen here. To make up for the noticeably absent change of seasons,…
Are you a die-cutting crafter? I used to avoid dies, thinking that they are too much work. After one too many times of cutting out intricate stamps, I am now a huge fan of having the coordinating dies for my stamps. Today, I’m sharing a project that showcases just oneof…

Let me help you with the diagnosis…symptoms include: 1) Messy craftroom due to excessive cardmaking 2) Minor papercut injuries 3) Intense anxiety about running low on white cardstock or adhesive.
