The Cutting Cafe Design Team

How exciting! I checked my e-mail before going to sleep last night and got the wonderful news that I've been chosen by Regina Easter for The Cutting Cafe Design Team! Check out the blinkie in my side bar. I'll be posting creations made with her wonderful templates. You might remember a couple of her templates that I've already used: the strawberry card and the duck shape I used for the pull toy.

In honor of choosing her new design team members, Regina is having a two for one special at The Cutting Cafe. Today until midnight, Monday, June 28th, for every set purchased you can get another of equal or lesser value free - no limit! When placing an order, don't pay for the free set(s), just make a list in the note section of Paypal. When you go to The Cutting Cafe, you can see a complete list of the design team members. I'm very honored to be working along side them. I can't wait to use more of her templates and share them with you!


Last weekend was my great aunt Jane's 75th birthday party hosted by her daughters, Karen and Dena. It was so nice to see them and my cousins, Joy and Kathy. We were asked to bring a memory page to be placed in a book. My mom and Jane used to make hollyhock dolls together, so this is the memory page we brought for the book:

My mom found this postcard and sent it to me. It's perfect!

The following two cards were designed for my aunt Jane to give to her daughters as Thank You cards. They are made postcard style instead of opening. I used vintage crate labels and tried to keep them somewhat alike, while using very different materials.

Happy Birthday, Aunt Jane!
