Hi, Im Larissa, and Im a non-recovering late night snacker. I cant seem to help myself. Apparently my jaw must be moving up and down in order for me to enjoy a movie or TV show. So Ive been looking f...

Ok. It was me. The first time this now iconic quilt fabric line was debuted I lollygagged around and finally bought a charm pack and then *poof* it was all gone. You could find small pieces for sale ...
I started an oversized version of the tole painting card for my mantel and so far its a fail. Poop. So I put it aside for now and made two more hand-cut cards. I like the woodcutty feel to them, and ...

Still loving the tole painting look for cards. These were made with some punches, some hand drawn/hand cut shapes, a white pencil, an X-ACTO and some glue. Hmm. I need to make a really big one for my...

My sweet nieces share a birthday week in March, and Im hoping they do not mind sharing a birthday card too.
