i can’t believe that it’s been more than a year since i’ve put photo to scrapbook page. my life has been filled with many scrapbook worthy moments however. where has the time gone?
in late 2008, i read about Becky Higgins’ Project Life and while it intrigued me, i knew it would take much more discipline and time than i had to dedicate to such a project. when i recently started reading more about a similar concept called "Project 52" [and based on the Project 365], i immediately thought it would be a great way to get me re-focused on photographing and documenting the things that are important in my daily life.
bear with me as i attempt to use this blog as a way to kick things off. i hope to start posting my photos and journaling [at least once a week] and maybe even a few of my creative attempts.

My new website contains all the great information you've found here about my products. And, it includes an entire page dedicated to free downloads!

PunchPal Too – upcoming birthday!
It’s hard to believe that I’ve been making the PunchPal Too for nearly two years now! If you don’t know what the fuss is about, here’s a little summary.
The PunchPal Too is a shape and size inventory of Stampin’ Up! shaped punches. This ring of laminated tags, includes a punched shape from SU!’s significant paper punches. It’s perfect to use with your catalog or stamped images to determine if the image will fit inside a punched shape.
The current version includes 25 punched cards; each made from authentic SU! cardstock and stamped with SU! images. So, besides being functional, it’s pretty to use!
Each PunchPal Too comes complete with a binder ring which allows you to add additional shapes later, and the laminated tags will hold up under years of use. You can even personalize your ring by adding ribbons or charms! A tag ‘cover’ includes a place for you to add an address label so your PunchPal Too won’t get lost.
Current punched shapes include: Circles: 1¾”, 1⅜”, 1¼”, 1”, ¾”, ½”; Squares: 1⅜”, 1¼”, ¾”; Word Window; Key Tag; Large & Small Ovals; Small Tag & Tag; Designer Label; Round Tab; Scallop Circle; Photo Corners; 5-Petal Flower; Large Star; My Way [arrows]; Wide Oval; Scallop Square; Curvy Label.

PunchPal Too ~ price increase soon!
If you've been on the fence about ordering a PunchPal, read a few comments from recent customers:
"I saw my SU Consultant's ring today and have to have one!! I'll be stalking the postman until it arrives :)" ~ Rena [avid stamper} www.friendscraps.com
"My customers wanted the PUNCH PAL ... RIGHT THEN! ... THEY LOVE IT! I MEAN LOVE IT!" ~ Crystal M. {SU! Demo} http://crystalmiller.stampinup.net
If that isn't enough to motivate you to make a purchase, then maybe this will: the price of the PunchPal will be increasing on April 1st! I'll be adding three new punches to the rings; if you order now, you'll get an offer to purchase the additional TagOns when they're ready, for just a small fee.
