Favorite Friday!!!! Let's talk about Adhesives!

It's Favorite Friday and today, I'm talking about my Favorite Adhesives! I am a paper crafter... and I should add a Left Handed Paper Crafter!  A lot of people don't realize most tools are made for right handed people, which brings me to my favorite tape runner.

Weed it Wednesday - Scrapbook Layout

It's Lorrie here, and I'm back for another Weed It Wednesday. Today, I'm sharing a scrapbook layout I made.  Weeding isn't just about vinyl.  Sometimes, you weed backgrounds cut out of cardstock.

Every new mom knows, you can never have enough of these.  They are the perfect size to tuck into even the smallest of diaper bags. and I think they are oh, so cute to make in pairs of 3, tied with a bow!  Do you want to find out more?  Check out my blog post for a full tutorial by clicking HERE.
