Scrapbooker’s Motto: Always Be Ready

Do you ever have a gut feeling that something is going to happen before it happens?  I’ve had that feeling for the last two weeks that a special event was about to happen at work.  I even saw it coming in my dreams, no kidding.  My mom always said that my grandmother had “these feelings” and […]

Surprising New Fisk-a-teers

When I’m at scrapbook stores and talking about how fun it is to be a Fisk-a-teer, someone usually points out that that I’m forgetting to mention the free goody Fiskars sends new Fisk-a-teers.

More CHA

Since I am in ‘Baby Mode’, I was loving all the Baby Lines at CHA.  Li’l Davis was definitely a favorite (just look at those adorable animal eyes!)

And look at that box!  It is so cute!  […]

Just A Regular Gal

I received a message from one of our fellow Fiskateers yesterday, and it really gave me a giggle.  We’ve chit-chatted back and forth through the message feature on the board in the past, just a couple of crafty chicks having a conversation.  Well, she sent me a message yesterday telling me that she never realized […]
