It’s All in the Family…&#...
…..most of the time!
If you have ever had the misfortune of being scared by someone in our home, we are sorry, really!
Often times we Russell’s gauge our daily success by whether or not we were able to jump out and “get” or “scare” some unsuspecting victim. If we happen to be on the other side of the BOO, w [...]

Triple Layer Punch Tutorial by Jill O...
For all of my stamper friends, I wanted to share a tutorial that has several good tips for card making. It is not just for this specific card that she made, although it is very cute!

I had to question why would someone go unde [...]
The Creative Side
