I've been blessed with 2 wonderful daughters! When they're home from school we try to fit in a little Stampin' Time!! I've been making different houses with a retired Christmas House kit and want the girls to make their own to suit their personalities. Jenny came over from … [Read more...] about Creating day with Jenny!

What to do with the Hamburger Tag?
The new Hamburger Box Bigz Die has 2 cute tags on the end of the die. One is a long tag you see here attached to the box, and the other is a short tag that cuts out a heart in the middle. It seems so short... and I've been trying different ways to use it. Here I've added … [Read more...] about What to do with the Hamburger Tag?
The Open Sea
It's always a challenge to make "manly cards". Last night I opened my new package of Moonlight DSP Stack (in the new catalog available June 2) and LOVED IT!! There are so many possibilities...the colors are beautiful and the patterns are modern and vintage-mixed. Here's the … [Read more...] about The Open Sea

Kong to the Rescue!
Have you ever clicked on something on your computer & had this sinking feeling right afterwards? Well, last week I clicked on something that insisted I needed to have this to view photos, & my computer was toast!! Luckily, I have a friend in Honolulu that's a computer … [Read more...] about Kong to the Rescue!
Hot Pink!!
When you want BRIGHT, you can't go wrong with Melon Mambo!! Love the pink/black contrast! And one of the things I like best about this card is the window sheet at the bottom. That's actually a stiff plastic piece with a design printed on it & it looks really pretty. I … [Read more...] about Hot Pink!!
Card for Spring
"Lucky You Live Hawaii" is a common saying over here. When I complain about the weather, it's usually that it's always sunny...never changes. If you live on the mainland, I'm sure I won't get a lot of sympathy from you!! I was inspired to make a Spring Card for a swap arranged … [Read more...] about Card for Spring
April is here!
Happy April Fool's Day! I've basically stopped playing April Fool's jokes on people. I discovered several years ago that my jokes were way too convincing and the whole thing backfired on me! Now I send flowers or cards to my employees instead! Long story... Here's the … [Read more...] about April is here!
Oh, Happy Day!
It's a rainy Saturday in Haiku, but I don't mind... I have a new stamp set to play with! This uses the Starburst Bundle (#134818 clear). I stepped out of my comfort zone a bit with these colors! I think this would be okay sending to a guy or girl. I really like those cute … [Read more...] about Oh, Happy Day!

We've both been busy seeing what we could make with the Card in a Box, and the possibilities are endless!! Click here to see what Anne made for a little … [Read more...] about Coffee in a box!
March already?!
Time for our Maui calendar blog hop! This month I used the "masking tape technique" to create this fun background. It's so simple to do! Just pull off a piece of painter's tape, blot it on your stamp pad, and stick it to your paper. The stamp is from Serene … [Read more...] about March already?!
