Introducing Tag You’re It! I’m excited to announce a new monthly blog post where I’ll be focusing on creating tags while sharing my step-by-step process. Today I’m using a combination of the new collection Love You More!, the limited quantity January stamp set, and the January Cut Files. I started with three manila tags…
Today’s spotlight is on the Good Times stamps! This stamp set is an extension of the 2014 Paper collection that was released at Summer CHA & works perfectly for anything from layouts, Project Life, cards, or tags.

Capture Life – Freeze the action It’s not always just the “big” moments in life that we need to focus clearly on; it’s those small accomplishments that mean so much to our little ones. Recently my three year old woke up so excited to tell me about how her daddy & her “boys” (brothers) taught…
