Hi, everyone and, in particular, my wonderful Stencil of the Month Club members and stencil customers over time. In case you missed my big announcement in my March 2022 stencil release post, I wanted to repeat it here in plainer view so everyone sees it. So, without further ado, here it is . . .
We've definitely turned the corner from winter to spring here in my hometown of St. Louis, Missouri. Yay! My crocuses are long gone, but my daffodils are in their glory! And it won't be long before my tulips burst open and start working their magic on those strolling through the neighborhood. As you probably know by now, I love...
Whether for a belated Valentine's Day celebration or any other day of the year, my February 2022 Dynamic Duos™ release is the perfect way to tell your loved one (or secret crush) that you care! With charming clover and bee background designs and messages such as...
From Paris with love! In my dreams, that is . . . I’m actually sitting in my basement kitchen-slash-office in Missouri as I type this release post! LOL! Anywho, I’m back with a new stencil design after taking a month off, and...
Hi, everyone! As you may know, I’ve been working rather covertly this past year on a special project. I've been dying to talk about it but was sworn to secrecy until it was finished! Well, today I can finally spill the beans, and I am so excited to share my news with you – particularly with my Japanese-speaking friends...
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! If all goes as planned, this stencil release should go public on Thanksgiving Day, just in time for Black Friday sales and the post-Thanksgiving Christmas shopping rush. With a host of charming gingerbread houses and a candy cane-striped landscape as their background, these sets are sure to make your Christmas extra sweet...
Ack, where did the year go?! I swear, I utter this same thing every November when I launch my first Christmas stencils of the year. Truly, 2021 escaped me; it blazed by in such a flash. In fact, I've already...
You may have caught this awesome news already in my September stencil release post, but, if not, let me break it to you first, here and now...
I'm a sucker for stunning place settings, and particularly ones with an element of surprise. That's why I'm especially excited about this month's release, which will allow you to make a plethora of Thanksgiving place cards! The surprise for guests is that...
So, for years I've been wondering what to do with the stray cow bones from our farm that my husband "arranged" in this vintage cart on our porch. He so rarely attempts to decorate anything around the house that I didn't want to remove them lest I unintentionally thwart future (and better) home beautification efforts. So they've...
As you sit poolside sipping a summer cocktail and basking in the sun, fall may not be calling you just yet. But, I assure you, with the way time flies, it will be soon! So, to get you geared up for that active autumn cookie season, I've got a charming fall-themed stencil design to help make easy work of those upcoming orders. It features...
Aloe, beautiful cookiers! I told you my stencil releases were deviating from seasonal and going more trendy! While I'm a bit late to the boho macramé planter craze, there's no imminent threat of it disappearing any time soon. The look is just so darn cheerful and fun that it's sure to stick around for longer than most would predict. So, with that...
As I mentioned in last month's fairy princess release, I'm departing a bit from my usual seasonal releases, and adding a few more event-related and on-trend themes to my stencil mix. No unicorns or llamas though, I promise! There's a...
I so often guide my stencil release designs by the upcoming season or holiday, but NOT with this release! Instead, I've decided to change things up and augment my stencil line with...
This month's Dynamic Duos™ design, dubbed "Pretty as a Flower", combines one of my favorite places with one of my favorite people: Maine, where lupine and sweet peas grow wild with abandon, and my mom, who can be a bit wild at times too! The addition of...
