Happy Mother's Day!!

   To each and every mom out there, I hope this day is filled with joy, no work and being surrounded by all those you hold dear!
   Happy Mother's Day!
   Even though I don't think I got my creative side from my mother, I know there are many traits I did get. And I couldn't be more proud of that. She is the hardest working person I know and she never complains about all that is expected of her.
   I hope that my future kids love and admire me as much as I do her. Thanks mom!
 
   I used a new technique on my mother's (and mother-in-law's) card, watercoloring. It was awesome fun!! I will try to get a picture, but wanted to get this post up. (Sorry the picture quality is not better, I've already got it sealed in a clear envelope). I used the Simple Beauty stamp set and the retired Key to My Heart paper pack.
   Happy Sunday!


watercolor technique: hopefully this card will help you. if not, please e-mail me or post a comment.
Needed: Waterbrush Medium: Avoid spills with the waterbrush. Fill the handle with water or other liquids, then use with inks, watercolor paints, chalks, or watercolor pencils for a soft, muted look. Instructions included on package and Watercolor Pencils.

New products are fast approaching!

   Hey there blog readers! I'm so sorry I've been so lax about posting to my blog lately - it's been a crazy month! There has been a trip to Chicago for Pampered Chef national conference - it was amazing! Also in there was the Close to My Heart national conference, which I didn't attend, but I've still got the excitement brewing from all the new product and changes! And a booth for the local Lone Tree Days celebration over the Fourth of July, along with a cousin's Pampered Chef bridal shower ... and more! So, anyway, sorry I didn't post. I had lots of good intentions; and I even got some projects done, but not sure what happened to all my time.    I plan on finding some of those pictures and uploading them soon. Also, I plan on heading downstairs to scrapbook soon - so maybe I'll have some of those pictures to share.    I'm not supposed to share any of the new products before the catalog goes live to customers, but if you contact me, I might give y...

Constantly looking for one place to store all your important dates?

   How many of you have all kinds of important dates running through your head, like birthdays and anniversaries, that you know you are bound to forget? I know I do ... and have. I can remember the random birthday of a college friend's brother or a high school class mate that I haven't really talked to since high school, but I can't remember my sister-in-law's or many of my best friends' special days, and even after only three years of marriage, I'll admit I've even once spaced off my own anniversary and scheduled a Pampered Chef show (it isn't always the husbands who do this!) I've tried storing these dates in different places: I've made an altered rolodex for that purpose, but I never filled it out; I've also used - and even made my own - card book. The one I got for high school graduation, I filled in all the dates, but at this point in time, I can't tell you where the book is. The one I made myself, I don't know if I even filled i...
