Welcome to my corner of the Internet. Well, if we're being honest, my blog is truly my Internet corner. But this site is easier to say and holds my shop. I make stuff. That's my job. Anything and everything. I am happiest when I am creating something new and exciting. To stay inspired, I set goals. Monthly goals for the little things and birthday goals for the big things. You can see the results of my 26 birthday project here. Read more about goal-setting here.

I launched an online shop in 2008 and since then, I have made and sold all sorts of things, including letterpress prints, gocco prints, posters, art journaling kits, hardbound journals, mixed paper books & paintings. I have recently switched gears and now just sell simple rubber stamps for paper projects and fancying up letters to your penpal & I am working on developing more online e-courses to share my crafty expertise.

My most exciting project to date has been developing the 2013 Seafoam kit for Project Life. It was both a puzzle and a pleasure to tackle something which such large reach and I am so thrilled that it is now available. I absolutely believe in celebrating the everyday. When I started using Project Life to document "the normal" at the beginning of 2012, something clicked for me and it's such an honor to have joined the team as a product designer.

I live in San Diego, California with my two favorite people: my husband, Paul & my daughter, Ellerie. We recently purchased a mid-century style house and I am enjoying coming up with fun DIY decor to fill the space. I adore my backyard container garden. I could sew quilts all day long. I watch Arrested Development in a loop. I am passionate about the concept of just start. Have a goal? Write it down. Then come up with a plan and make it happen.
