Ever get tired of saying the same thing over and over.

My husband came up with the idea for the sign.

I used a stand left over from our old Candy Land game.

We’ll just have to wait and see how effective it is with our son.


The 8×10 canvas board has had several lives, none of them pretty. So I keep covering them up and trying again.

This latest incarnation is in the style of Kelly Rae Roberts, well at least the background technique.


Since it’s so dang cold here I thought maybe a little love could warm us up! Current temp here is -15 F.

I used mica on the left side of the image…I just know someone was going to ask. :)

The couple in the photo is of my Grandpa and Grandma Hanson circa 1929.


While sorting through some stuff I came across an envelope template that I got at a garage sale this summer.

I remembered I had an awesome coffee table book about the Cayman Islands from the free shelf at our local library. Since a multitude of the photos are full page they seemed perfect to try the envelope template out on.

I’m getting the hang of the shape cutter tool(also a garage sale find).


I’ve been wanting to use these circuit board parts for a while but wasn’t sure what to pair them with.

I came across this picture in my pile of old photos. The couple just looked so unhappy, as if their life was just some cruel joke.

After putting the back to back pages together I felt as if I really need to say something about them being “behind bars”.

The words wrapping around the cutout read:
A prison of their own making. Marriage is what you make it. Make it full of love.

I happened upon this awesome tray in the 90% off Christmas clearance at Super Target yesterday.

Who can pass it up at that price!

I love the tray but now what do I put in it?

It’s 16 inches square and the sides are about 2 inches high.

Any decorators out there?

HELP!


I don’t know whats wrong with me but I keep making ATC’s. I’ve always hated working with this size.

The top one was a “happy accident”. I was playing around with embossing powders by layering them when I accidentally smudged the still molten EP. I reheated it hoping to smooth it out a bit and decided it looked kind of cool. So then I scraped the cooling but still somewhat molten EP with a credit card. I then reheated it so it would smooth out a bit. The palm tree image is mounted with 3M foam tape.
