🎄 FREE Advent Calendar- Daily Freebies starting NOW! 🎄


Hey friend!

So… Advent started yesterday, and technically so should have my Advent Calendar. But the tech gremlins had other ideas, and I spent way more of December 1st wrestling with my website settings than I would like to admit... and today is a snow day for my kids, so there's even MORE chaos happening!

BUT! The good news?
We are officially live today, and I’m so excited to share this year’s Advent Calendar with you!

You can come grab Day 1 right now, with Day 2 scheduled to go up this evening.

This year feels extra special for me. I haven’t done an Advent calendar since 2022, and coming back to it after a really tough couple of years—health stuff, burnout, trying to keep up with kids who seem to multiply their energy by the minute—feels like a return to something joyful and generous.

If you're new here and have no idea what I'm talking about.... well, just head over here to check it out, but to give you a hint, there's 25 days of freebies coming your way this month!

Creating this Advent Calendar is one of my favorite traditions, and I’m grateful I get to bring it back… even if I’m arriving fashionably late. 😉

Pop over and download today’s freebie and make sure you check back each day—there’s so much printable goodness coming your way all month long.

Thanks for your patience, your kindness, and for letting me share a little Christmas creativity with you again this year.

Hi friend, One of the things I’ve always loved about scrapbooking is that it doesn’t just create something pretty… …it creates something meaningful. A scrapbook can capture memories in a way that photos on a phone just can’t. And one of my favorite ways to use scrapbooking is actually as a gift. For birthdays. For grandparents. For graduations. For milestone moments. A scrapbook gift is one of those things people tend to keep forever. That’s why I recorded a short class called Giving...

Hi friend, Can we talk about something for a second? The average scrapbooker or crafter probably has… a lot of supplies. (I know I certainly do! In the midst of a complete clean out and overhaul because I have TOO MUCH) Paper. Stickers. Embossing powders. Half-used kits. Things we bought because they were pretty and inspiring. And then sometimes we sit down to create and think… “Why do I have all of this and still feel stuck?” That’s actually why I created the Use Your Stash class. Instead of...

Hi friend, I was digging through some old project folders today (#springcleaning) and had one of those moments where you realize… “Oh right. I made that. And oh wow, that's good!" 😅 Over the years I’ve recorded quite a few creative classes for summits and special projects, and a couple of them never really got a proper release in my shop. So I decided to do something simple & fun this weekend... I added two of the classes to the shop and put them on sale for only $6 each. Normally they’re...
