Board Books

My girlfriend, Jen Torresson made this for one of her sons.  Isn't is adorable.  I love the ribbons.  Jen and I met when we both lived in Northern California and now we are in NJ and she lives in Michigan.  Her father-in-law lives in Moorestown, NJ, so they do come out here occasionally.  Hopefully, we can meet up soon to catch up and swap ideas!

Fourth of July!

003_2 Happy 4th of July!!  I hope everyone has a great day.  For some reason our town doesn't have a parade and fireworks until the 5th.  I don't understand that, but the kids want to go to the parade, so that is the plan for Saturday.  Hopefully, I'll have a page up by Monday for you to check out!

Note holder/corkboard

060 I created this for my customer/hostess appreciation brunch.  Only my hostesses got to make this one though.  I tweaked the idea from a much larger version done with cardboard, but decided it would be more fun to put it on cork, then it could be used with push pins as well.  There are 3 pockets for notes or photos.  I will miss the dsp Spring Break (pg 168) when it is gone!

Watercolor Crayons and Heartfelt Thanks!

  • 051_4 This was one of the cards I made for eScape on June 25.  It was the first time I played with the water colors and I love the look. I might have to play with them more to get some different effects, but how are is it to play with crayons and paper.  The hard part is finding the time.  People ask me, "When do you find time to do this?"  I tell them I make the time because it is important to me and helps me be creative and I think it is theraputic for me as well.

Masculine Birthday Card

060_3 My neighbor is throwing a suprise party for her husband's 69 1/2 birthday. I love the card, but you can't see the side. The front is about 1/4 shorter than the back, then I distressed the paper and added always artichoke to it.  I love the look - this might be a keep for a card class!
