Tape is for more than holding things together.
Have you ever thought to stamp on a piece of tape? Me either. Grab your staz-on ink and cleaner and get going. You will need masking tape as well as clear mailing tape. Ink your stamp with staz-on and then place your tape adhesive side down on top of the inked image. Rub lightly. TakeContinue reading “Tape is for more than holding things together.”

I can create movement with only two dimensions. So I took some glossy cardstock and basic black ink and did the unthinkable. I smeared my ink. Continue reading “Sometimes messy is what is needed.”
Pieces to make a whole.
Sometimes pieces can make a great whole. In this case squares and some gold dots become a great background. Without these gold dots the background looks fairly plain. Remember that the details matter. Remember that even though you might be thinking you are only making a small impact it is probably bigger than youContinue reading “Pieces to make a whole.”
Back from Spring Break and I am ready!!!
Spring Break is done and while I enjoyed being out of routine, I am looking forward to getting back to it.

Feeling ready.
Lately I have been feeling that I am behind. I am not prepared and just not ready. Most of the time this is just a feeling but sometimes I am caught off guard. With not being prepared comes anxiety, more cost, stress, and time to overcome a meltdown. Have you ever felt like this? Just overwhelmed?Continue reading “Feeling ready.”
