With a little imagination, and a few crafting supplies, you can create just about anything!

I sometimes stockpile cards to share, and then I forget to share! So, I’m posting two cards today…

Welcome to my new blog! It’s got a fresh and fun look, you’ll see more at a glance, it should be easier to navigate, and you can view it on your mobile devices.

This Mother’s Day we’re honoring our mothers who have passed on by giving our girls two gifts to remember them by (along with a random cute book about moms)—all tucked in a gift bag with this beautiful card attached.

I posted about our trip to see Shanna and the twins on their birthday, but I didn’t share their birthday gift packaging…same stamp set, entirely different look!

Ruth Snyder will be visiting Utah later this month to celebrate her Million Milestone, but honoring her and her accomplishment began when she achieved her milestone and received this beautiful card showcasing some of her favorite things.

Every year, usually in the spring, we have employee appreciation events in all of our Stampin’ Up! offices. Last week I got to attend two barbecue lunches (one in Riverton and one in Kanab).

Sean’s birthday usually signals that spring is here and summer is coming soon. It’s also time to start thinking about family time in the sun and boating on the water…

Because I haven’t been well enough to fly, we hadn’t been to Florida to visit with Shanna and the twins since September, so it was high time for a trip to spend time with them!

Jon celebrated his birthday recently, and this is what my artist created for his packaging. Handy with all kinds of tools, he just finished a bathroom in their home, but what he’s really good at building is cool industrial furniture!

We like to give a book at Eastertime to our girls’ families, and this year I found two worth sharing—one for the younger children and one more for the older children and adults—both about the true meaning of Easter.

Sterling and two of our friends competed at their first ride of the season at Antelope Island. We woke up at 4:00, and by the time we left the house, it was pouring rain.

Since Shalae is sleep training little Owen and Sara’s in Europe, I decided to take the three older Brown kids and the three younger Douglass kids for a couple of days during spring break and do some fun things together.

Since I last posted about my health issues, I’ve been tested for TONS of stuff (and the testing continues!), but progress has been steady.

Every six months, we gather with family to receive inspiration from our church leaders during our worldwide general conference. Some people attend conference in Salt Lake City, but most of us watch conference at home. It’s one of my favorite times of the year!

My rainy Saturday started out perfectly when my sweetheart took me to brunch at a little café over the mountain. I surprised myself by how much food I ate, and it was just nice to be together and relaxed—a combination we’ve enjoyed little of lately.
