Hello and welcome to my little space in the blogging world! I have been passionate about rubber stamping since 1985 and I love it as much today as I did back then! Originally from Vancouver Island, British Columbia, I now make my home in Nova Scotia. April 10th, 2018 marks my 16 year anniversary with Stampin' Up! and I've been blessed by this company and my business more than words can say. I've been fortunate to have earned amazing Grand Vacations, Founder's Circle Retreats (for the top 100 demonstrators in the USA and top 20 in Canada), and a member of the Team Canada strategic group. If you would like to purchase Stampin' Up! products you can shop online (within CANADA) through my website HERE. I hope my blog inspires you in some way - whether it be stamping, crafting, trying a new recipe or something all together new - enjoy! ~ Tina
Hi Friends! Today's card is one that I made, start to finish, in 15 minutes. Sometimes we need to remember that cards needn't be fancy or require lots of embellishments or techniques. When you need to make a card in a hurry, of if you just want to make a card that doesn't require a lot of products or tools, this is the one to make!

Hi Friends! I am soooo excited to share today's project with you!!!!!! This is one my most FAVOURITE projects that I've made because it was so much fun to put together - and because it was a gift for my Mom! Both my mom and I are hooked on our "Instant Pots", which are electric pressure cookers. This gadget is a life-changer. I use mine almost every day. In fact, I now own two Instant Pots, which allows me to cook side dishes alongside the main dish (for instance, I'll have mashed potatoes in one pot and meat in the other). Just type "Instant Pot" in google search to see what all the fuss is about with this appliance. My Mom and her family have an Instant Pot and I had also given one to my Dad and his wife, so now we're all sharing recipes with each other!
I used the "Share What You Love Suite", which was absolutely PERFECT for this album. Before I popped my mom's album in the mail, I did a quick little video walk through so that I could share this project with you:
