When: Next Thursday, June 25th, from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM (and we can definitely keep the momentum going past 3 PM if we're on a roll!). 

Where: Sandy, Utah. ( I’ll send address with you in private chat )

What to expect: A super relaxed craft-and-chat day. There will be food, drinks, and tables set up for us to hang out.

Special Extra: I'm also planning to film some fun podcast conversations with you while I'm there!

Whether you're coming to create, share your work, or just chat, it’s going to be a wonderful day. If you’re in the area and plan on swinging by, let me know in the comments below so I can get a final headcount for our seating. Counting down the days! See you next Thursday! 👇

I got something stirring in the backround 🥄😁

🎉 New Podcast Episode!

Paper Stashes & Commissions vs. Creative Freedom

I had so much fun chatting with my crafty friends Jodi and Marilyn for this one! We talked about paper stashes, favorite album styles, creative freedom, & custom orders. If you've ever bought paper you couldn't resist or wrestled with balancing creativity and commissions, I think you'll enjoy this conversation. Come listen and let us know your thoughts on these topics!

Hi everyone!

I'm excited to announce a new community challenge for this month!

I know many of us are getting busy with summer plans and vacations, so I wanted to keep this month's project simple, quick, and satisfying. The challenge is to create the Kindful Flipbook (inspired by the tie-fold from the Kindful Mini Album)

You can use any paper and embellies you'd like. It can be a greeting card, birthday card, mini album insert, or anything else you can think up!

For the challenge, you only need to make one Kindful Flipbook, but of course, if you enjoy it and have the time to make several, that's wonderful too! (just make sure you post all of them for us to see 😍)

Excited to see your flippy's ❤️

Let's do it! ✂️

✈️ Utah Trip Update: Save the Date! 📅

Hey everyone! I am so incredibly excited to share that I’m about to solidify my tickets to come to Utah! 🎉I'm looking to host a casual, one-day meet-up and hang out in Sandy on Thursday, June 25th! I would absolutely love for you to come if you're in the area. There will be food, drinks, and a few tables set up for us. You are totally welcome to bring your tools and a current project you're working on, or even something you've already made to show us! It will be a nice craft-and-chat day. I’m also planning to film some podcast conversations with you while I'm there ( heehe! ) I'm thinking a general timeline for the whole event will be from 11 AM to 3 PM, though we can definitely shoot over if we're on a roll.

Hi friends! I turned the Kindful Mini Album feature into a standalone project tutorial so you can reference it whenever you want. It’s perfect to slip in a pocket, or attach to a page as a fun extra feature! I also taught the same techniques I used in my Shabby Chic Kindful Mini, Enjoy! Big hugs 🌸
