Hello Sassy Friends!
Today I want to share with you a framed project that I created using two of my very favourite crafting tools - my Cameo and my Minc. I scored this fab sheet of gold foil from another of my Daughter's craft packs (ssshhhh, don't tell her!) and I was thinking how cool it would be to make a little custom frame for my desk.

Hello Sassy friends!
I'm sure you have seen the new recipe challenge that Anita has put together - isn't she amazing at them!

Hello again Sassy friends
I saw a super sweet digital layout recently, and I have to say, I was quite smitten. And like a smitten kitten, I simply had to create something similar for myself using Simple Stories 'Summer Vibes' which is in store now.
