I recently switched by blog over from Typepad and have lost my pictures.   I'm slowly trying to add them back. 

Oh wow!!! This stocking was SOOOOOOOOO much  fun to make.  I started with a FREE template by the wonderful and awesome Lauren Meader, then finished it off with an adorable kit by the talented Megan Mullens of Wild Dandelions Designs (Scrap Orchard).

I'm so sad, I just can't figure out this damn blogger thing. My typepad blog was soooooooo pretty.   This blog...blah....

Anyone want to help a sister out.  I can't pay you, but I can make you an awesome layout. :)

Yes, I decided to make the move from Typepad over to blogger!  Now, don't get me wrong, I loved typepad, I just couldn't justify the cost when I could have blogger for free!  I'm still trying to work out the kinks here.  Blogger is not as intuitive as typepad.  

Any advice for me?

A lot has happened over the last few months.  I'm proud to say that I'm now a member of the Scrap Orchard site team!!!  I was thrilled to be invited as a Hybrid Honey Bee!!!! I've been super buy creating lots of goodies for the girls over there.  Be sure to check out my gallery.

Are you ready for this????
Last week I was contacted by the wonderful people over at Racks and Stands. They wanted to know if little ol' ME would be interesting in reviewing a product from their store.  I immediately headed over to their store to see what they carried.  HOLY MOTHER OF MEDIA ORGANIZATION!!!!  Seriously, I was floored.  From the gaming center racks to the desktop storage to entertainment centers, I was in heaven.  They have everything, literally EVERYTHING.  I fell in love with quite a few products over there.  It's like someone has been stalking our home and knew that we needed help in those areas! I can't wait for my product to arrive and write an honest review of it.

Hi everyone!  It's been a very busy week here in my studio, although I don't have a lot to show for it. Sorry!
I made a cute little project featuring one of Lauren Grier and Mandabean's (Sweet Shoppe Designs) kits, Along Came Miss Happy.  I just love it! I added stitches, however I ran our of thread at the top. ugh....   I added some new trim that I found at Big Lots for a whopping $1.  I braided the strap with a simple satin ribbon.  The purse closes with velcro.  It's the perfect size to hold a gift card.


Next up... I got some new stamps!! Yeah!!! I just love this cute little Tilda. The challenge this week in the Copic Buzz at Paper Craft Planet is jeans.   How did they know that it's my favorite???  I haven't finished the card yet, but wanted to take a picture of all the markers I used on this image!!!!!

and for the recipes....


Rumor has it that the Magnolia Summer kit has shipped!!!!!!!!!!! Wooot!!!! Do you think I could be any further from Sweden, though???  I'll keep you posted as to when it arrives! :)
Peace out!
