Money-Saving Tip: Personalize a Gift ...

Tea and Napkin Holder
After returning from a great trip to England and Ireland, I decided to celebrate those memories by making a tea and napkin box.
8 Lunch Note Cards and ...
School lunch is a big deal in the life of an elementary student. My kids love cold lunch as the hot lunch choices are not always to their liking, and my daughter likes to eat the same exact thing every single day. We spent some time this weekend picking out the perfect lunchboxes for the new school year and making sure their names were written on everything. I have one more little trick up my sleeve to make lunchtime fun and that is where today's project comes in.

Engraving on Sequins
We have had a lot of requests for more projects using the Engraving Tool. I knew I wanted to do a video on it but I wanted it to be different than what I had done in the past. When I am stuck for ideas, I like to wander the aisles of the craft store to see what inspires me. Recently, I discovered that sequins are coming back in style in a big way, literally.
Layer Cake Rocker Card
I recently visited a local paper crafting show and saw some amazing cards on display. I saw several cards based on the style of a Rocker Card and thought this would be an easy design to create using my Inspiration Studio software.

‘Bookworm’ Scrapbook Layout and a ...
My daughter spends hours reading every day. A weekly trip to the public library is never enough for her. She burns through a stack of books in just a few days. I caught her laying on the couch with her books the other day and decided it was a perfect moment to document.
