Update on our move to Bismarck, ND

July 31, 2026

If you haven’t watched my recent videos you may not know that we have moved from Minot, ND to Bismarck, ND this month. It’s been a super busy time of downsizing, selling excess, packing and moving.

Why did we move? Well, there are many reasons but mostly my husband retired and we moved to be closer to our son and other family. It was very difficult to leave our beautiful home but we will love our new home too. Here’s a picture of my office/craft room before I was able to unpack. I’ll share new photos once I’m settled.

In that back doorway is a walk in closet; that will help with storage! I did find a nice L shaped desk and hope to get that set up today; then I can really set up my room.

This is why I’ve been missing in action lately; it’s hard to do both stamping/business and moving/getting settled. So I’m taking a bit of a break in August. Have patience with me; I’ll be back to blogging and videos soon!

Here's my favorite!

The card above is made with Polished Pink CS, Pattern Play DSP, Dots & Checks embossing folder duo and In Symmetry stamp set. I colored the white ribbon with Polished Pink blends.

Hat’s Off; a neat bundle with so many possibilities. Video tutorial too!

June 28, 2021
The Hat's Off bundle was a bit of a sleeper to me when I first saw it. But seeing what other's created with it made me buy it.

Once I played with it, I absolutely loved it! See this bundle here.

I created this card for my June card clubs.

Save

I chose these colors; Gray Granite, Real Red, Crushed Curry and Misty Moonlight. I stamped the background stars with Versamark ink. I love the tone on tone this ink pad provides.

The stars are from the Stitched Stars dies and the texture is from the Checks & Dots embossing folder duo seen here.

Scroll down to watch the video.

Can you see the stitched detail on the hat and the emblem? These dies are fabulous! This bundle is a fabulous price point; just $35 for the set & dies!
