End of the school year!
I realized I wasn’t using my “with the boy” category too much. Don’t get me wrong- we do things together all the time. We just don’t MAKE a lot. He’s not a big “maker”. But when he is in the mood to...

How do I use this thing? (and some ICADs)
I came across this 3D stencil in one of my (many) boxes of craft supplies and thought… “What the heck?” One of the prompts for last week’s ICAD Challenge was “ivy”, so what better time to experiment....

I was in a training all day yesterday and came home completely brain dead. I sat at my craft table and making a collage seemed like about all I could do. I have a box of cut outs from magazines that I...

Perfect day for working on the lawn!
