My family watched Elf (and a number of other holiday movies) over Thanksgiving weekend. I guess we are ready to kick off the season. The “Christmas Means More” stamp set is great for holiday movie fans! My Elf-inspired hat is made with the three largest stitched circles dies. The Garden … Continue reading

Shakers & No-Shake Shakers
I started my Facebook Live last night with these really fun tags for cookie giving! They use the Jar Punch and Mason Jar Shaker Domes to hold sprinkles. You can even coordinate by using the same sprinkles on your tag as on your baked goods – how fun is that?! … Continue reading
