Here are some of my New Year’s resolutions:
--Do some of the art projects I planned.
--Use the rubber stamps that I had to own.
--Find some of the embellishments that I put away before using, and use them.
Ok, I admit... I am not ready to put my more personal resolutions into print just yet...

This week’s article is all about Oriental Trading Company. This company continues to grow quickly adding new products at mind-blowing speed. If you check out their web site you will see that they now have a new tab set up just for art supplies. You can read more about what the company has to offer here:

Just as a reminder, I am continuing to take names of anyone interested in joining in on the Valentine’s Day Card swap. The rules are simple. The swap includes one rubber stamped Valentine’s Day card with envelope and one Valentine’s Day accessory valued under $5. (A rubber stamp, brads, templates, etc) Check out the basic ideas of the swap in last week’s article:
