One of the conversations at the Utah Meetup was about those mysterious ruler measurements... you know, where on earth is 7/8"? 😂

One of the biggest reasons I joined Francis's community was because she took all the guesswork out of scrapbooking. I signed up so I could be creative—not because I wanted to relearn fractions!

Years ago, I finally admitted defeat and printed a picture of a 1-inch ruler with all the 1/8-inch and 1/16-inch markings. I glued it to cardstock, laminated it, and stuck magnets on the back so it lives on the side of my metal storage cabinet under my desk.

Now, whenever I'm working on one of Francis's books and my brain says, "Nope, not doing fractions today," I just pull out my little cheat sheet. No squinting. No counting tiny lines. No math. 😆

I thought I'd share in case anyone else belongs to the "Where's 7/8?" Club. You're among friends! 😉

I finished my first monthly challenge! This is Simple Stories "Simple Vintage Lavender Fields" paper collection. It was so pretty I had to add a few extra pages.

🤔🤔🤔 I'm not 100% sure what exactly happened last weekend while I was working in this months challenge because I'm usually much more organized than this. My OCD kicked right in and I had to clean up first before continuing! Can anyone relate?

HELLO EVERYONE! My name is Pam. I’ve been part of this community for over 2 years but have never posted — it’s time! 😊

I’m originally from California and moved to Colorado in 2005 so my husband (of 33 years) could coach our Women’s Olympic Wrestling team. It’s been an amazing journey for our whole family, including our two now-adult kids. I hope everyone is cheering on our Winter Olympic teams!

I started crafting at 5 years old with my grandma, making dolls out of bleach bottles. Over the years my skills have evolved, and now I’m definitely the person who sees something and says, “I can make that!” — and do 😉 I make all my own Christmas gifts and décor, which led me to cardmaking and then scrapbooking (which wasn’t really my thing).

Then I found Frances — GAME CHANGER! I love her style and teaching (her laugh is infectious), and the results are amazing — quick, easy, and always blow people away.
