Rest is a good thing.

Rest is a good thing and by rest I mean a change in routine.  What are you doing today to change it up?  I am doing a little shopping and a nice dinner to celebrate my husband and I’s wedding anniversary.  It was yesterday but both of us had classes and concerts to perform at. Continue reading “Rest is a good thing.”

Thank you for filling me up.

This has been the beginning of the whirlwind for me.  7 events in 11 days.  Some say I’m nuts.  Some say I have lost it.  And some just shake their head and walk away.  Personally, I love it.  I love getting together with you.  I love the laughter, the hugs, and just gathering together.  ThankContinue reading “Thank you for filling me up.”

A leaf punch becomes a flower’s stem after snipping the leaves off.  AContinue reading “Pieces and parts.”

Correction for brusho sealing technique.

I was wrong.  You heard me.  I was wrong.  Now you know I’m not perfect (if you didn’t already know many times over).  Last week’s tutorial for the new brusho product was not completely accurate.  As I continue to experiment with this product I have found that hairspray is not the best sealer.  It isContinue reading “Correction for brusho sealing technique.”

Sundays are for rest. What is your therapy?

Besides papercrafting, can you guess my other kind of therapy?  If you’ve been to many of my classes you can probably guess.  Cooking is another of my therapies.  I don’t bake well (don’t like to measure) but I love to cook.  Not gourmet, just cook. What do you do to unwind?  Do you hike, justContinue reading “Sundays are for rest. What is your therapy?”
