Happy Fourth!

July 4, 2012

Filed Under : Personal

It’s always a happy time. This year, the original plan was to head over to Skamania Lodge in the Gorge for one night and lots of relaxation. Then we decided we’d rather just stay at home and do the things we don’t normally have time to do — like go sun-bathing, bike riding, popsicle-eating, and just enjoying having a full day all to ourselves. What are your plans for today? I’m hoping I don’t get a single comment because ya’ll should be out enjoying the day!

Custom Card: Shoe Heaven

Filed Under : Cards - Paper Projects

I get all giddy when my customers order custom cards — for themselves. I secretly blush over on this end. It’s not every day someone orders a card just to have one of my creations sitting on their desk. This was one of those cards. The gal has a passion for shoes and has one too many, so therefore, a shoe heaven had to be created for her.
