“What I most love about scrapbooking…is that every time I fill a page with photographs, quotes, and mementos, I am collecting proof of a good life.”
— Amy Tangerine, Craft a Life You Love
Last Week in my Bullet Journal
Throwing it back to last week in my bullet journal. Had to add Oprah's speech from the Golden Globes to the Love List too after taking this photo. If you missed it, definitely watch it and here is the full transcript of her inspiring and powerful words…
Make Something Everyday
I truly believe that one of the best ways to craft a life you love is to do something creative everyday. I'm passionate about infusing creativity into our lives and inspiring Jack to express himself through art…
Happy Halloween + a little behind the scenes
If you're following along on Instagram, you probably already saw on Stories (I love and don't love that they disappear within 24 hours) that I had a cute little assistant helping behind the scenes of this photo shoot…
Makers Gonna Make
Decided to make a fun little spread in a new Brit + Co planner I got while visiting San Fran last month. Used fun supplies from my shop (the floral stamp repeated all over Makers Gonna Make is from the Gratitude set)…

Plan With Me
Another full week in the books 💛I added color in my bullet journal (more on it in this post) and now I am not sure how I feel about it. You can see when it was mostly grayscale in my Plan With Me video…
Lettering on the iPad Pro + Free Download!
Though I don't plan on doing Motivational Monday every week this year, I do want to continue to share inspiring quotes and new things with you. Ever since I got my iPad Pro late last year, I have been really into playing around with the Procreate app. Many of you have asked for a tutorial, so here is my version of that in a YouTube video…
Creative Lettering For Kids
Ever since I can remember, I have been obsessed with hand writing. Though I never thought mine was all that great growing up, I loved practicing and trying different ways to improve my lettering style…

Hand-Scripted Invitations
JC's sister, Jenny (who I guess I should call my sister-in-law now, yay!) was in town visiting us from DC back in March 2015. We were talking about her upcoming wedding in June 2015 and she was showing me some stuff on Pinterest that she was considering for the direction of her invitations…
Remember This…
Feeling gratitude for the community of women who came together at the first She Loves Color event in Milwaukee, WI this past weekend…
Never Let Anyone Dull Your Sparkle DIY | Collab with Michelle Wines
Most of our weeknights are spent at home. Dinner is usually something simple, and if JC gets home from work early enough, we can enjoy the evening together as a family. We try to not make a habit of having the TV on, but some nights are an exception during football season…
Be Brave, Fierce and Free
Love that we have a mostly positive environment in both the comments section of my videos and here. I know you're not supposed to feed the trolls, but I just had to bring this up and for those of you who are curious (I know I would be) the comment appeared from someone on YouTube…
Believe It
I am brave, fearless, bold & strong. Sometimes it's good to remind ourselves of this fact…
