This is what my neighbors will be getting from me this year. (I am sure they will all be surprised to get something actually baked, as everyone knows I am kind of a menace in the kitchen. LOL!) I got the idea for the mini brownies from Becky here. Super easy! I found these cute…
Our church is having our annual Women’s Ministries Christmas Celebration on Saturday. As in the past, there will be a speaker, lunch, and some great fellowship. However, this year they are adding two breakout sessions. One session will focus on hospitality and the other will focus on giving. I was asked to lead the “giving”…
I am shamelessly using my blog today for a “public service announcement.” I just came back from having my very first mammogram. I know I am only 38 years old and that you aren’t supposed to start having them until you are 40, but breast cancer runs in my family, so I actually should have…
This card was inspired by Beate’s Weekend Sketch here and pretty much cased from Nancy Riley’s card here. (I love her work.) CTMH’s Notebook paper was a quick and easy solution for the background.

I feel so silly right now. I just realized that when someone posts a comment on my blog and it gets emailed to me, I cannot reply to the email. If you have posted questions on my blog in the past and haven’t received an answer from me, it isn’t because I didn’t answer. It…
Here are a couple more purse books. The first one uses the paper from CTMH’s Whoops-a-Daisy paper pack and the Happiness stamp set. (I love that set!) It is also a smaller version of the purse using A2 sized envelopes.The second one uses the Let’s Get Together paper along with the June Stamp of the…
