Hi friends! Today I have a fun technique to share with you! This year at Creative University Tresa had the teachers put on a Technique Boutique. Each of us contributed 4 technique make n take style tutorials for the boutique. For my techniques I tried to do something “different” than what you’d see at a traditional “stamping demo party”. I will be sharing alll 4 techniques via video over the next couple of weeks. This is one of my favorites! …
Hey friends! Happy {almost} spring! It sure feels like spring around my place. We’ve had beautiful sunny weather and I haven’t worn a coat or jacket in several days. I am back from Creative University and am working on editing photos to share with you, but first I want to let you know what else I’ve been working on behind the scenes… A while ago I built some fun (non plain jane) ink and stain applicators with my dad in…
I was asked to teach jewelry again at this year’s Creative University by Tresa Black and have been a very, very busy girl getting ready for it. The teachers also have another project besides their class and we’ve been busy working on that project as well. Needless to say between CU, Jr High 4H, and 8 yr old Activity Days Girls at church I haven’t had time to breathe or blog. Oh, but I’ve wanted to and have some projects…
Good morning friends! I have this friend who’s really super cool. She teaches fabulous classes and has a spot on our local tv channel. I try to make it to her classes whenever I can, it’s a fun night of crafting with the girls. My friend is Sue Neal of My Eye Q. One of the coolest things about Sue’s classes is that if you can’t make it to her local classes she will mail your kit to you! Each…
Wow, so for the last three weeks I have been off the radar again. (We had my parents here for two full weeks over Thanksgiving and I was pretty much banned from the computer except for business schtuff.) So anyway, at the beginning of Nov we had our date night group get together. Each time we get together we choose some sort of theme for the activity. This month Angie & Aaron were in charge and they chose “Traditions”. Angie’s…

So for the past several months I’ve devoted a fair amount of time to a fabulous little website called Pinterest. Do you ? If you do, you know the amount of time that gets lost while surfing the fabulous eye candy of recipes, jewelry, craft projects, style ideas…. if you don’t well, you’re in for a major treat! Just a click away, Pinterest can transport you to the wilds of imagination and help you crawl out of your creative funk/slump….
Happy Halloween friends! Hope this post finds you getting ready to go out a-spookin’ tonight with your kids or friends! Tonight Brent and I will be chillin at home with some movies, caramel apples and cider and answering the door for trick or treaters… when we run out of candy we will hide out in the basement. 🙂 A couple of weeks ago I went out “witching” with some girlfriends in Salt Lake City. There’s a shopping center called Gardner’s…
Hey guys! It’s been a LOOONG crazy summer! I know I’ve been MIA entirely too long. We have had so much going on around here and quite frankly, I decided to cut a few things out of my life for a little while and not stress about them. It’s been a nice vacation from the blog, but I think I am ready to get back into some crafty action again! We’re still in the process of remodeling our kitchen. We…
Hello friends! I bet you thought you’d never hear from me again. But alas, I’ve wandered back into Blog Land again. I haven’t really been very far away, though. I walk past this computer day in and day out, but I just haven’t sat down to write anything in aaaages. I don’t even know where to start again. SOOOO much has been going on here at our house since I last left you with the pics of the start of…
