Double Slot Treat Box
Birthday Party Live - Project #6 I love when Stampin' Up! release dies that make cute little boxes such as the new Little Treat Box dies that are available. They are great when you are struggling to bring a box together for a project and mean you don't have to work out the measurements before… Continue reading Double Slot Treat Box

The gorgeous penguin from… Continue reading Penguin Birthday
Monochrome Love
Do you often find that making a masculine card is more difficult than making one for a female recipient? I know I do.
