Are you a Target lover? I am. Target is one of my favorite places to shop – prices are great compared to other stores and their stuff is so much better. I LOVE walking up and down the Home department aisles and just taking in all the textures and colors and fabric designs. Target is […]

Embossing is what I use my Cuttlebug for mostly – the added texture gives each little card or page something special. And Provo Craft has bunches of beautiful embossing folders to choose from. At only a few dollars each, I want to […]
