Pineapples!
The pineapple stamp set retired last year, however I had to keep it in my stash as a bestie said how much she did not relate to the Pineapple trend that you see all over the shops right now. It was recently her birthday. I felt it was my duty to get her a pineappleContinue reading “Pineapples!”

With four kids in school I’m always keenContinue reading “The joy of giving!”
A change of pace, a bit of beading!
