I just use an Epson ink jet. Laser printers (we have two different ones) smudge. I don't like them for fine details like digis. Plus I find using good quality cardstock makes a big different too. I just use Recollections cardstock as it's the only thing Michaels sells. But I hear SU Whisper White cardstock is awesome

Your house is gorgeous! LOVE it all - what caught my eye were your painted railings - beautiful! Can you tell me how long it took to that - you have about the same amount of railing as I do.

I don't have children and I don't park in those spots. I am not handicap and I don't park in the handicap designated spots. If I have 12 items or less, I go to the 12 items or less aisle. And so on... I have always followed the "rules." That's just the way I am.

I bookmarked the blog - I thought it was really well written and basically just said the opposite of the letter she was responding too. I thought it was clever

With that said - I have a strict rule: Christmas decorations don't go up until the last weekend of November. It is my own tradition

Here are my latest Christmas cards - I have been practising my Copic marker coloring. I gave my digistamp shiny black hair and rosey pink cheeks.

Double sided tape: I am all about the budget. I spent a lot of money on other goodies and I "cheap out" on the double sided glue tape. I buy mine at Dollarama. I go through 3 or 4 a week, so the cheaper the better. Plus I find it is user friendly and sticks very well. I have cards standing up in my card case and the glue is still holding 8 months later!!

For heat embossing: I use regular cardstock. It doesn't curl very much. I usually will layer that piece of cardstock with others (gives it more weight) and then I will glue it down with either double sided glue tape or foam dots. Also, I let the heat gun heat up first before hitting my paper, then I keep it on the paper as little as possible. I am always worried about scorching too!

I heat-embossed her dress to make it sparkly and added glitter to every possible object. I used Copic markers to color her.
