Thanks for stopping by my blog! The hats I wear include wife (to a retired Army field artilleryman), mom to three super busy teens, and high school math teacher. In my “free time” I love cooking, reading, creating (mostly papercrafts), photography, travelling, and exploring the PNW with my family…you know, all the usual things!
I hope you’ll find some inspiration, entertainment, and something that makes you smile here. I look forward to hearing from you!

This-n-That Keepsake Book
Now, did y’all know Stampin’ Up! has a (fairly) new product line called This-n-That? It’s rather like Smashbooks, but of course way cuter (in my opinion, anyway!). It’s a little grungy, a little scrappy, a whole lot of just plain … Continue reading

Word Play is one of the sets I really hate to see retire, because it contains some of my favorite sayings for cards or gifts. I have lots of birthday and thanks stamps, but the other stamps in this set … Continue reading
