New Ribbon Storage
So during the recent holiday extravaganza sale, I decided to give in to my eternal debate for how to store all my ribbon and order the SU ribbon holders. I had most recently been just stacking the ribbon in towers with my other stamping supplies, which doesn’t work so well because they kept falling over! …
Finally able to post pictures
So, while away on my trip, I tried posting the pictures from last week. Unfortunately, my internet connection was apparently not good enough to make that happen, so I wanted to get out a quick post this morning. Like I said last week, we had a great time getting ready for the holidays by making…
A Quickie Christmas Card
So, I finally decided to start doing challenges on Split Coast Stampers and so I just did my first one, which was for SU demonstrators to come up with quicky holiday cards. I still think I could have gone a bit more simple but at least the technique is very easy. I think all told,…
Slow posting over the weekend
Well, I”ve been off visiting my grandparents for the weekend and so will be spending 5 days away from my crafting supplies. So, I’ll space out the last couple pictures I have from our boxes and bags class so that it stays interesting over the weekend. 🙂 And i just tried uploading a picture and…
Free shipping for less on Portland area – 1 day only!
As I was getting ready to place my next order, I was suddenly thinking that there were probably folks who loved the idea of free shipping and 10-20% off stamps, but didn’t have $70 worth of an order to qualify for free shipping. If that sounds like you, let me know as I will be…

Yet another holiday gift box
So, after finishing my DVD sized gift box for my Holiday Boxes, Bags, and Tags class, I decided I wanted to try to make a box where the top didn’t completely cover the sides (ie – you can see the bottom half of the box when you are looking at it from the side.) I…
Rescheduled! Holiday Gift Bags, Boxes, and Tags class
So Sunday afternoon, we were planning on having a Holiday Gift boxes, bags, and tags workshop. However, due to some illnesses during the week we ended up doing some open craft time and rescheduling the actual class. It looks like the new tentative class date is the evening of Tuesday, Dec 9th (same day as the retired stamp…
A DVD holiday gift box
Last night my DH was on the phone much of the evening so I had some free time to experiment with some more gift boxes. The first box I designed to be exactly the right size for a DVD or video game (its 8″x5.5″x1.5″). The sides reach all the way to the bottom of the…

So, tomorrow afternoon I have a workshop for making holiday boxes, bags, and gift tags. (Email me if you would like to join us, we’d love to have you!)We’ll be making some of each and like usual, it should be a good time. I wanted to get at least one sample up online ahead of…
Nifty file organizer for storing your greeting cards
So after 2 days of heavy drugs and lots of sleeping, I’m feeling much better. I tried crafting over the last couple days but only managed to sit upright for about 10 minutes before getting dizzy. I made some progress and was able to finish up a couple projects this afternoon and now put the…
Short pause in posts
Hi all, I just wanted to put up a quick post since I’m being a bit slow this week. Earlier this weekend I must have hurt a back muscle as I haven’t been very mobile the last couple days. I went to the dr this evening and was given prescriptions for some meds which may…
