Sometimes you just want to give an inexpensive gift from the heart to a family member, friend or coworker. Sure, you could buy them a cup of coffee or a candy bar but why not put a little extra effort in to show how much they mean to you or to say thank you? Once again I found myself in the Pinterest rabbit hole and wanted to share these ideas with you! I would love to see your project if you

I have REALLY been out of the loop the past three years with cool techniques being shared online.  Of course, many of them I discovered on Pinterest.  Once you enter that rabbit hole, you will never leave! So I have been feverishly saving away the many cool techniques I see.  Most recently, I made a couple of the Twist & Pop up cards.  Unfortunately, I didn't take pictures

I had a moment of panic today....I realized that my domain expired two weeks ago and my links weren't working. It has since been fixed but thinking my years of blogging was gone forever made me realize that I NEED to get back to blogging. I loved sharing with all of you and knowing my work gave people so much joy really gave me the drive and inspiration I needed to get back into it. Life has a

Still trying to adjust to the 5:30 mornings and 2 hour commutes!  I'm just happy to be working again but sure wish I was working closer to home! Going to try and catch up on inspiration posting.  I have been pinning a lot of great stuff to share with you.  Just needed to blog it.  I hope everyone is having a great summer so far.  The weather is been very nice here in

I hope you all had a fun and safe holiday weekend.  I stayed home and set off some fireworks.  I'm glad I avoided the traffic home on Sunday night! My new job downtown gives me a lot of time on the commuter bus.  And of course, that's just more time for me to spend on pinterest so I can share all of the fun finds with everyone!

Hello All, it was a long week!  Back to work, taking the bus downtown for the first time in my life.  Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be but I'm spending 2 hours a day on my commute.  Not what I'm used to!!  Sorry I haven't gotten around to sharing more links until now....  I will try to keep up.  By the time I get home at night, sometimes I just too tired. &nbsp

I'm planning a fun weekend at the Dells with my daughter.  My last week off before I start my new job next week.  It will be exciting (but rather confusing at first) to be working downtown. I will try to schedule my posts ahead so there aren't gaps between posts.  I hope you all are enjoying this beautiful summer.  So far, it has been perfect with sun, temps and rain when we
