bridget and todd invitations

what a fun couple to work with ... bridget and todd are definitely on our favorites list. Kayd really rocked this one, love the outdoorsy feel and fun die-cut shape. I do feel for Bridget's parents though, as she is one of three sisters all getting married this summer.

Crafty Cones

Here's a great craft idea for Valentine's day

Crafty Cones


We love our new die cut machine and can't get enough of making these cones with it! The back of our store has a Creation Station and will feature a new craft each month - this month is Valentine Cones. I made some to hang on my roommates door handles with some goodies in them and the girls in the photo made four to hang in their windows. So fun!

gift-a-day #16 ... it's in the bag!


messenger bags are hot! i don't know about you, but when i'm all bundled up in the winter the last thing i want to worry about is whether my bag is going to fall off my shoulder in my slick puffy coat ... so my winter bag is always a messenger bag, it stays in place and my hands are free to carry other things (like shopping bags!).

gift-a-day #10 ... field notes

hey, are you guys familiar with this product line? i recently fell in love with it, the 3-pak of purse-size notebooks has a list of ideas for using it which include: inspired ramblings, half-ass calculations, escape routes, illegible autographs, shady transactions, gambling debts, loose promises. i love it. the calendar has the most excellent list on the back of "real big days", a list of unconventional holidays such as the best day to can, pickle or make sauerkraut, national visit the zoo day, bowling ball invented, eskimo pie patented, debut of polaroid camera, first laundromat opens.
