Aloha, all! At this moment I sit in between the time of “Christmas in July” and the Stampin’ Up! August – December Mini Catalog (aka Holiday Catalog) launch tomorrow. So I decided to do something totally non-holiday – a Birthday Card. And I’m still on my mission to explore the ins and outs of slimline-style… [Read More]
Big Island
A Snowflake Work in Progress!
Aloha, all! Do you ever read horoscopes? In our newspaper, the daily horoscope column is on a page with other articles I read.

W Is For Whale!
Aloha, all! You may remember that one of the first papers that I used from the newest Stampin’ Up! catalog was from the Whale of a Time Designer Series Paper (DSP) set. It was when I made this card that I realized that there weren’t just prints on the papers in the set. There were… [Read More]
