Guess what I got to do today! I took pictures of my favorite stationary objects–flowers! We went to the Meadowlark Botanical Gardens in Vienna, Virginia, today and oh what a site! It was really hot but so what–I got the most gorgeous pictures today. =) And there are a few of the family, too, reluctant [...]

I saw these unfinished clipboards in various sizes at the local A.C. Moore’s and couldn’t resist. There are dowels in the backs of each so that you can prop them up, or you can hang on the wall, or use as regular clipboards. I wish the lighting had [...]

Cosmo Cricket sent out a really great package of goodies for those who applied to their design team and placed in the Top 20. =) Great parting gift for someone who didn’t make the final team! So, here is the Gretel collection project. I’ll get around to the Mr. Campy, Haunted and Jack’s World collections [...]

Here are a few pictures from the 3 days of lunchtime classes I did at work last week. We did a modified Cosmo Cricket Lacing Card project with lots and lots of Glue Dots. Didn’t have any of my men co-workers take me up this time on the class but I hope to drag [...]

I realized last week that the pretty girly Post-It Note holders I made a few posts down probably won’t go over very well with the men in my office. I work in a pretty sizable directorate–about 20 of us when we’re all there and without added interns running around. Here is my solution to the girly note holders, [...]

Here is a small project I made for my daughter’s welcoming home. She’s coming home this week from her summer vacation with my parents in Las Vegas. She had asked me to make a mini album for her with these monkey papers a while back and I just got around to making it for her.
I [...]

Okay, no more acronyms (did I think I was at work?) Here is my Little Yellow Bicycle & Bind-it-All project using a variety of BIA materials — Zutter Clip-Board Wood and Perfect Closures. This was my first time using the clip-board wood and boy was I apprehensive. I didn’t think the BIA would cut its way [...]

I’m probably the only person you know who gives co-workers “embellished office supplies” for the holidays! This year I’m giving my and my husband’s gal co-workers these cute little Post-It note holders.
Aren’t these cute or what? I’ve seen these note holders done with coaster covers but I decided that acrylic would be nice touch, too. [...]

These are from the Chrysalis Vineyard and Winery in Middleburg, Virginia. So glad we still have flowers for me to capture.
P.S. Happy Birthday to my son, Jacob – August 5
P.S.S. Happy Birthday to my brother, Michael – August 5

I knew today was going to be a pretty day–perfect for taking blue sky photos. We ventured to Aldie and Middleburg, VA, towards the wineries and grist mill. We stopped at the Chrysalis Winery first and bought a bottle of ice wine. I’m not a wine-lover, so to speak, but sweet is always good. My [...]

Hooray (again!) I woke up this morning to an email from the Zutter Zisters (the people who bring you the Bind-it-All) telling me that they’ve chosen my first BIA project to show on their site in August! WOW!
Check it out at this link: http://www.zutterzisters.com/InspirationStation2.html

Hooray! I’m a guest designer this month on Fiskars! My travel-themed purse, mini album and clipboard projects are featured on the Fiskars Craft site (just newly posted today!). Fiskateer (Legend) May sent me the Away We Go paper collection from Li’l Davis Designs and asked for a Fiskars tool-heavy project and this is what I came up with. This [...]
