Last week I had to buy a bunch of these beautiful white hydrangeas, I don't think I have ever brought them before. I love seeing them in home decor mags on tables and in white kitchens-especially huge arrangements! I am going to plant some so I can just cut my own!

Beautiful tags! I love the butterfly on the Spread Your Winds tag. Is that a punch or die? You do gorgeous work!
Hi Janice, that is a die! I cut it with me Slice using the Paper Reverie card-thanks!!
These are great pics Keisha. I love how your home provides so much natural lighting. Your house is ALWAYS so spotless, care to share your housekeeping tips? With a dog who CONSTANTLY sheds, I have a hard time keeping things so spotless. Oh and I love the look on Lulu with her tongue sticking out... Perfect!! lol :)
Lulu keeps me dust mopping. Generally right after the girls are out the door in the morning I try to dust mop-not always every morning. I LOVE Bona hardwood floor polish-once a month. The girls are my biggest problem-socks & crumbs, argh! I invested in a $19 dust vac with a long handle & a wheel attachment from Target-I also use daily for the kitchen crumbs & hair in the bathrooms.
Is the punch Martha Stewart?
Yes, Linda it is-called Emboridery
Hi Keisha! I just love the way you randomly punched a border around the layout with your new punch! And your tags are always so inspiring. Please forgive me if you have already answered this, but do you do anything with those beautiful tags upon completion, such as add them to pages or something else? My projects end up piling up, so I was just curious as to what you do with yours! Thanks for sharing your lovely work!
I went to my local Joann's yesterday looking for that punch and could not find it! I went home very disappointed! I was also wondering what you do with all the tags you make! I love your style!
LOL, Ashely & Anne...I am slowying buying frames for them to be framed & hung in my studio & bathroom...mixed in with family photos! And some I save for gifts/cards. I do use some of them for my layouts as well.
I loved everything on this post! Can't wait to make black embossed butterflies. And yes, I went to my Joanne's and bought the last punch they had.For all others who have to 'have it', it's called Embroidery.
That's funny, just in time Dorothy!! I just brought more black cardstock for more embossing!!
Thanks Keisha. I usually run around with my swiffer, but not daily, guess I'm going to have to start lol
I have always loved your hardwood floors and how amazingly spotless and shiny they are. My dog sheds so bad, I feel like I'm fighting a losing battle lol :)
