All bark and no bite!

I can talk the talk but have a hard time walking the walk! After my big "I will buy no cards" declaration, I bought a freaking card! It was only a buck but I bought it! Not only did I buy a card this weekend, I did not make a single card! What a loser right?! Spring Break is officially here and I see card making in my future. I also see card making in YOUR future and since my slacking has earned you more time as well you have no excuse. Make some cards and send me some pics please!

I will not......................

Buy a single card this year! That is my paper crafting pledge. Why would I? Am I stupid? I have all the makings of a great card at my finger tips. I have all that Junque in My Trunque, if you will! I have made my own Christmas cards for the last couple of years so why would I not do this for all the other occasions that life throws my way. I am amazed at the creativity of others as I flip through the May/June issue of Paper Crafts Mazagine (intentional misspell, that's how we say it in our house) It's a beautiful issue filled with all kinds of gorgeous and cutie cards. Even some great masculine cards for the Men in our lives! I am inspired! I am gonna do this! I am gonna have a card making day on Saturday to get my "Stock" started. I will make at least 5 different cards for 5 different occasions. Anyone want to join me? I double dog dare you to do the same! Send me your pics of your cards that you make over the weekend and I will post them on my blog and a lucky card maker will win a prize!!!!! Maybe we could do an "American Card Maker Idol" with voting and all!!! Come on......who doesn't want to that title?

Go here for some inspiration and motivation!

Websters Pages!

I am newly obsessed with Websters Pages! How have I not heard of you before? Where have you been all of my scrapbooking life? I am not sure how long they have been around but they are new to me and I am having so much fun getting to know their products. I actually first stumbled upon Websters Pages while browsing through "scrapbook supplies" on ebay the other day. Then my favie site Scrapbook.com posted this video today! It must be fate! Websters Pages and I are meant to be. It's destiny! I am looking forward to many years of blissful pages with my new love. I thought I would share the video just in case you haven't heard of them yet. Now this is just ONE of their cutie paper designs. Check em out and let me know what you think! One random commenter will receive a prize!

New DCWV Stacks!

There are new stacks coming to our friend, Jo-Ann's  in April!  This makes me super happy because I am so over the stack selection in the store!  All the Stacks are unique and different but I am most excited about the Lemon Flower Stack and the Tattered Time Stack!  The yellow and black in the Lemon Stack is so sophisticated and fun while the Tattered Stack has a very Tim Holtz feel to it. Check out the video and don't forget to post a comment letting me know what is your favie!!
