Really enjoyed the first stop on my tour with Spotlight, Christchurch, New Zealand. I’ve tried numerous times to put the visit into words, but feel it’s best to just show the 2 store sessions through photos for now. Thanks to everyone who came from near and far!

the paper with the months on it will be in the June Studio Calico kits While at Camp Calico last weekend, Kinsey brought a notebook full of amazing sketches. She didn’t quite understand why we were going all crazy for her work, but believe me, it was all amazing. Her “rough” sketchbook of ideas rocked our world. Then she gave much of the credit to Read More »

DIY Printing

Can’t wait to get my hands on this new book by Jenny Doh, Stamp It!: DIY Printing with Handmade Stamps. Though I have attempted stamp carving a couple times (let’s just say there is MUCH room for improvement), I think this book will be just what I need for inspiring more confidence and practice. Spoiler alert, it’s also my pick of the week for a Read More »

Day in the Life – May 1

When I awoke at an hour I shouldn’t have, I saw on both Ali’s and Elise’s Instagram feeds that they were doing #dayinthelife. Decided it would be fun to join in. Here is how my day in Perth played out. 3:00am – woke up and could not go back to sleep. Decided to stay in bed and get some work done. 7:44am – breakfast in Read More »

Last weekend I had the pleasure of flying up to Berkeley to teach once again at the fabulous Scrapbook Territory. I taught for the first time there back in November 2011. It was wonderful to see some familiar faces and of course meet new ones. My mom even decided to come along to help and really enjoyed herself. I am pretty sure everyone enjoyed meeting Read More »

Silhouette Premium Vinyl

using Silhouette Premium Vinyl

Even though I have had it for quite some time now, it wasn’t until the other day that I pulled out the Vinyl starter kit. Instead of creating wall art, I decided to add it to a little box (originally housing chocolates but now I use it for photos) and my mom’s mini iPad. I got a turquoise roll of premium vinyl, which is the Read More »
