Leave Your Mark
Hello, everyone! This week, I have a fun craft for all you scrapbookers and stationary lovers out there–stamps! Though, this isn’t solely for those crafters because the best and easiest way to quickly add a personal, handmade touch to something is to use a stamp! But isn’t making your own stamp

Being Uncomfortable is Fun, I Promise!
This week, I want to talk about stepping out of your comfort zone. I know, I know, it can be scary to attempt something you’ve never done before–and in my case, there’s the added pressure of the entire internet being able to see whether you sink or swim… But, it’s also exhilarating!

All I Want For Christmas Is an Art Workshop!
I can't think of any artist who would not love to receive the gift of an art workshop under their Christmas tree this year! I know I would! I would love any opportunity to learn something new about painting, materials, techniques, or anything else that has to do with art.

The Power of One Word
On New Year's Eve we all wait and watch for the stroke of midnight. Watching the ball drop in Times Square, counting down the seconds, ready to celebrate the New Year. Out with the old, in with the new.

"Pick Me, Pick Me"
Soon after Thanksgiving Day, begins another holiday tradition. One that is awaited almost as much as Christmas itself. "Black Friday?" you say? Why no! It is actually Christmas Tree Weekend! This begins the time of year when every evergreen is trying to look its best among hundreds of others in the field or on the tree lot. As if to say to the families standing in line, "Pick Me, Pick Me!"

Super Size 'em
Trading cards are all the rage, right now. You have probably seen information on Facebook, websites, or in magazines to encourage you to swap. Or perhaps, you have purchased the Strathmore Trading Card products as I have and traded them locally with all of your artists friends.

Give a Little Extra, Get a Whole Lot More!
I love this time of year! I love my Christmas tree, I love the crisp, cool, winter air, and I, especially, love to bake! I have special cookie and cake recipes that I have used for years, and then I search for a few new ones to add to my collection. I begin early to store up all the baking supplies I will need until about the second weekend in December.

A Handmade Holiday Greeting
One of the earliest memories of my childhood was making cards. My mom saved practically every greeting card I made over the years. It is wonderful looking back and remembering how much she appreciated the simple artwork and the love it represented. One of the most common and oldest traditions of Christmas is the exchanging of holiday greetings.
