new product from Maya Road!

Maya Road has a new product coming out and I am very excited about it! You will have to head to the Maya Road Design Team Blog to find out more! Eeeeeeee!

Today's post marks my last with the Maya Road design team. Designing for them for over the past year has been wonderful! It has been an honor to be a part of the company and I am thankful for the opportunity. Caroline is a lovely person and I hope that you will continue to follow Maya Road and support them, as I will. The good ones are hard to find. And thank you to Julia for being so organized and keeping us all on track. You too are appreciated. Thank you for everything, Maya Road!

changes and blog changes and blog additions

Always so many things happening around here! I have made some additions to my blog and I hope the changes will be helpful and provide you with more resources and information.

If you look at this screen shot of the top of my blog, you will see I have circled a new page. When you click "favorite products" on the actual blog, you will be taken to a page that shows all my use-all-the-time supplies. I explain why I use the products and I provide links to those products, to make it easy for you to purchase them. I will continue to add products, so check back.

The "about me" page has also been updated. If you are new around here, or even if you aren't, click there and find out more about me!

I am thrilled to announce that I will be staying with the Carta Bella design team for another year! I cannot wait to share more projects with you over the upcoming year! Just wait until you see the Halloween line! Visit the Carta Bella blog and welcome the rest of the team!

And with one more change to add to the pile, I will be leaving the Maya Road design team after my final post in September. I love Maya Road products and its people. They are both wonderful! Thank you Maya Road for a fantastic year!

Hang on to your hats, its going to be one busy fall! I cannot WAIT to share all the happenings! Great things are coming up in the paper crafting world!

more projects with Sew Sweet Sunshine Soup

More projects with some great products from Jillibean Soup today! This adorable banner was easy to make! The pockets are pre-made wood grain bags. The tags were pre-made chalkboard! The phrase Create Happy is a Stampable and was easy to change from white to yellow with Happy Hues Yummy Yellow paint! Other Pea Pod parts from Sew Sweet Sunshine Soup were added, along with some small wood thread spools. I added Party Playground Gumdrop Baker's Twine to each one. 

This 4x6 frame is perfect for anyone who loves to be a maker or crafter! The focal point is a journaling card from Sew Sweet Sunshine Soup. I added stickers and layered the journaling card on coordinating patterned paper.

My final project is my current favorite. This Small Receipt Holder is so cute! It measures about 5x7 total. I layered papers and a Mini Placemat, along with some stickers. The coolest part of this project is the rub ons! Rub ons are back! Sew Sweet Sunshine Soup has a great set of rub ons, including the great stitches I added to the top and bottom of the placemat. 

I will be sure to let you know as soon as Sew Sweet Sunshine Soup hits the online stores!
