Decorating for Spring with Stampin’ Up!
As promised, I'm going to share another way I've been thinking outside the box with Stampin' Up! lately. I purchased some new furniture for the entryway of our house at the end of last summer, and I have been enjoying decorating it with each new season! I'm going a little more simple for spring. I'll just share pictures of the one area, but be assured there is a handmade wreath, flower arrangement, and spring sampler on display as well (all of which have been pictured on here before).

Thanks Coach Handmade Card
This is the first year any of my children have ever participated in any team sports. Micah really wanted to give Basketball a try, and so we went for it. With 3+ hours a day for four days a week, it certainly made for some changes around here. If you attended class during a game, I'm sure you were hearing about the score as I received texts! Being who I am, of course I kind of took on a bunch for the end of season banquet, including making cards for the coaches! Unfortunately, I forgot to take a "good" picture of both cards, but I do have this one I snapped with my phone. Continue reading

Handmade Valentine Gift for the Guys
As I tried to decide what project to do for the Valentine Gift class, I found myself wanting to do something a little more masculine than we sometimes do. Something that a guy might really enjoy using rather than just a picture frame to set around. I came across some Tin Plagues and they spurred the creativity. I showed my half-finished project in class the other night and everyone in class signed up to make one! I'd say it must be a success. Now I can show you the finished project! The really great thing about this project is that every one is going to turn out different! You Continue reading
