Counting cards

On February 2, 2020 By athurber43In Creating, ProductsLeave a comment

I'm feeling good about the status of my card stash. Recently, it has gotten a little slim so I've been actively working on building it back up. These cards are made with Graphic 45 patterned papers, Tim Holtz paper dolls, and rubber stamps by Stampin' Up, Dyan Reavley, Dina Wakely, Tim Holtz, and who knows …

The new space!

On January 24, 2020 By athurber43In Creating, Life in NH1 Comment

The mudding of the sheet rock is looking great! I can now see how I can use this space. It's getting me all motivated and stuff. Things I'm thinking about: Moving all my supplies upstairs. Getting a DJ set up and playing around. I may have watched a lot of Hip Hop Evolution on Netflix …

Card writing season?

On January 17, 2020 By athurber43In Creating, Life in NHLeave a comment

It's cold, you're stuck inside, you just can't scroll through Pinterest anymore. Let's embrace a long-loved pastime, letter writing! I try and send birthday cards to my friends and family (mostly on time) and I enjoy the thought of them getting a little love in the mail box close to their special day. But, what …

It’s really too soon for this, but . . .

I've started my Christmas crafting. I am slowly working my way up to the really fun stuff like making Christmas cards to spread cheer to all my family and friends and building garlands to use in our home. But I thought gift tags could be the gateway into all that festivity. Nice quality tags like …

This week’s work

On November 14, 2019 By athurber43In Creating, Life in NHLeave a comment

I'm getting a studio!!!! Have I shared that our house is under renovation? Like, tear a third of the house down, renovation? Well, it has made creating a bit of a challenge. Lots of stuff is packed away, and my regular creating space no longer exists. All this is to move into bigger, brighter, and …

I made some stuff.

On April 12, 2019 By athurber43In CreatingLeave a comment

I pulled out some tools I haven't used in a while; my stencils and vintage alphabet stamps. Having my trusty friends around me helped spark my creativity in a way that the crummy weather has not. I dig this Scout and feel his confidence. This gang looks ready to rule the world. You are, you …

Snow storm equals work day

On November 16, 2018November 15, 2018 By athurber43In Creating, Life in NH, ProductsLeave a comment

The Great British Baking Showing is my jam (ha!). Well, day two of making Christmas cards is at least feeling a little more festive.  Snow has a way of doing that.  I won't bring out the balsam candles and candy canes just yet (let's get through next week, shall we? I will be setting up …

Hot Summer Days

On July 13, 2018July 12, 2018 By athurber43In Creating, ProductsLeave a comment

It's been brutally hot here these past few weeks, but now we're having some relief.  And with that relief has come a creative flash!  I even organized my stamped images, a great excuse to use my label maker! I know I've shared this before, but I love using and matching up scraps and bits to …

Custom projects

On May 25, 2018May 24, 2018 By athurber43In Creating, ProductsLeave a comment

I love that what I create is all one-of-a-kind.  No two items are alike (well, almost no two items).  This gives me the freedom to express whatever I'm feeling, no need to seek perfection, because each item is perfect exactly because it is an original.   Sometimes, my vision isn't quite what a customer is …

Catching up

On April 27, 2018April 26, 2018 By athurber43In Creating, ProductsLeave a comment

It can be very satisfying to complete a project, especially if you think you don't have time to do it.  That was today.  I made time to do, not only, what I wanted to, but also (most of) what I needed to. Ahhh, the joys of adulthood.  Here's to hoping you can also find the …
