It’s that time of year… end of the school year concerts, band performances and school programs. Kids singing in the shower and in the car, practicing in their room with their instrument until you know the melody and all the words. A little case of the nerves, getting all dressed up, walking out on stage […]

If you haven’t participated in the Bingo Challenge here at The Sweet Shoppe, you can check out the details here and learn […]
Are you or is someone that you know and love a nurse? Nurses are some of the most kind, compassionate, empathetic people in the world. I think it’s safe to say that just about all of us have had at least one medical experience where the kindness of a nurse made an impression that we’ll never […]
Mother’s Day (in the US) is headed our way this coming Sunday. We’ll be celebrating our own mothers and grandmothers, the women in our lives that are cherished like a mother, our friends and family that are mothers and even our being a mother or mother figure to others. It takes all these special women […]
Did you know that yesterday was “National Tell A Story” Day? As memory keepers we tell stories all the time, stories about ourselves, stories about our families, big stories about holidays or birthdays and little stories about funny things the kids said today. We talk about our work and school day on the way home […]

I thought I would celebrate by sharing some digital scrapbooking products you could use to document the silly stories in your life, those moments that make you giggle or even laugh out loud! […]
National “No Housework Day”… sounds like a dream doesn’t it? I’m not sure it could ever be accomplished. It always seems like there is plenty of laundry, vacuuming, mopping, dishes, clothes folding or ironing, bathroom scrubbing etc to do. The list seems to go on and on. But a girl can dream, right? I thought […]
It’s been a while since we’ve had a post on color. This time, I’m focusing on the color green. Green can symbolize new growth, rebirth as well as abundance. It represents wealth and prosperity but as a counterpoint also greed and jealousy. For many, green is synonymous with nature, with the planet Earth and recycling to […]
I hope everyone is working hard on those Bingo Challenges for March! Making a layout for a challenge is always a little boost for the creative mojo and then there’s the added benefit of a sweet rewards coupon for doing enough of them each month 😉 Every month, I like to share a few products […]
It’s St. Patrick’s Day for those who celebrate it. For many of us, this day symbolizes LUCK, being lucky. One definition of luck is the chance happening of a fortunate event. Another word for it might be serendipity. Today is also associated with bright shades of green and four leaf clovers. I’m a true believer in […]
There is something about a butterfly that makes me think of freshness and new beginnings. They are symbols of renewal, rebirth and growth, of sharing and social behavior. Here in the northern hemisphere they are often associated with spring, flowers and plants. In honor of “Learn About Butterflies” Day this week, I thought I might […]
