Sometimes rest is getting out, changing your scenery, and trying something new. This last week my family took the RV out to Vegas (including Shadow my wonder poodle) and we took a minute to re-connect. We did things we never thought we would. (This is not one of those moments that the phrase “what happensContinue reading “Change your scenery.”

Christmas Sales!
I just got back from being gone the week and I missed all of you. It was great fun but I have to say that I miss my “work” and fellow crafters. So let’s celebrate me being back behind my desk (crafting or blogging). Get 15% additionally off any Christmas stamp set, embellishment, or ribbon. Continue reading “Christmas Sales!”
Solstice happiness.
From the title you probably think I have lost my mind. With the winter solstice happening yesterday that means the daylight hours get longer now until June 21. If you’re like me and run on what seems to be solar power then you know how hard it is to be productive when it gets darkContinue reading “Solstice happiness.”
Punches can be a puzzle.
Our punches can also be used as a puzzle. The Everyday Label Punch fits much like a puzzle does. So when you can’t think of what to do for a background use a punch. Happy Crafting! With inky fingers, Joni 🙂
Bone folder does more than crease.
A bone folder can be used to flatten creases in cardstock but it can also be used to curl the edges to create gorgeous flowers. Just remember a tool can be used for many things, not just what it says on the instructions. Happy Crafting! With inky fingers, Joni 🙂
Sometimes crooked is the new straight.
For those of you that have attended any of my classes you will often hear me say “stamp first then punch”. If you stamp it crooked you can still punch it crooked too making the end result straight. Just a little technique for you that will come in handy for this Thursday’s card. Happy Crafting!Continue reading “Sometimes crooked is the new straight.”

If you need last minute gift certificates I will be available on Saturday. The invitations areContinue reading “Not much going on…”
Are you resting for me?
Is that possible to transfer rest? I have been going non-stop and today is the last of it. Tomorrow is time to pack the other house and see some things. Remember in this crazy season to take care of yourself. No one else will or can. It will help you to be present for theContinue reading “Are you resting for me?”

Sometimes it’s the little things.
Sometimes it’s the little things that make or break you. It’s your husband getting up with you before 5 am because you have a craft fair to set up for. It’s one of you crafters that makes me feel so special by creating and then mailing it. I’ve gotten some amazing happy mail this week.Continue reading “Sometimes it’s the little things.”
