3Fiskateers Misison: Fiskars XL Tag Punch

I am a member of Fiskateers. It’s totally cool! My friend, Robyn, told me about it a while back and told me that I’d get a free pair of scissors for joining… Well, a girl can always use a free pair of scissors, right?

It’s totally fun! I will say that the Embossing Buddy from Stampin’ Up is soooo worth the investment!!! If you don’t have one, find an SU demonstrator and get one of these hot little buddies! Here’s…

I have lots to talk about, but I can’t post just yet… Tonight we are packing, fixing the car (darn fuel filter) and getting ready to go down to St George for my friend Erik’s little boy’s baptism. We’ve been friends since I was 16 (in Germany) and wouldn’t miss this for the world! I am excited for a little road trip to kind of shake the stress off my shoulders. Sadie is going to spend the weekend at the…
