How sweet would it be to get a treat like this? I think it would be a great way to brighten someone’s day, don’t you? The best part about it is that it uses very little paper and just one cookie, which you can make or buy. That makes it even easier. In my case,…
Today I’m using “Maps of the World” lightweight paper by Hazel & Ruby to help me create this useful (and road trip travel inducing) map box. I LOVE this map paper. I chose to focus on the South as much as possible (with some Northern spots on top) because I’m a Southern girl. I’ve lived…

It’s true. Sometimes I make things just because they make me laugh, like my blog blog blog shirt. Making a “football fan” cracked me up. You know what? It’s funny, it’s useful and can be obnoxious a great way to show team spirit. Imagine fanning it every time your team gets a touchdown, like DH…
Don’t miss the bottom of this post to see the finished product! I love the way this turned out! I created a REMOVABLE cover for a plain sketch book for my nieces 18th b’day. She is an artist who also likes to sew. She got a dress form for her birthday, so I was happy…
Advent Calendar Cookie Tray My advent calendar doubles as a gift. You can remove everything and have a usable cookie tray. Woo hoo! Wouldn’t it be great to give this away and get REAL gingerbread cookies in return? I knew you’d agree. 😉 I used my Gypsy to help me save space and paper. I…
