About Me

Welcome to my blog. Thanks for dropping in. I am Lisa, I have been married to Chris for almost 9 years now, and we have two gorgeous girls, Eloise and Tabitha who are 8 and 6. Tabitha has a rare genetic disorder called Langer-Giedion syndrome (aka TRPS type II), which causes numerous health and developmental problems for her, but she is still a happy little girl and makes us smile all the time. I enjoy crafting, and have a rapidly expanding amount of crafting goodies, with not enough space to store them all! Contact me at lisa.seriousstamper@gmail.com

Life's a hoot!

One of the things I have got my sticky mits on, is a really, really cute owl punch from Stampin' Up!

I used it today to make a bookmark for Ellie, who, I am relieved to say, has rediscovered the joy of reading. Interestingly, this week, she has been bouncing out of bed in the morning, and demanding to go to school early, because she LOVES school. I am so pleased to hear this, this is exactly how things were before last year, which was horrible for all of us due to her teacher. I have now spoken to her about how sometimes these things happen, and you get teachers you don't get on with, but that you then get teachers who you love, and that makes up for it. Anyway, here is the bookmark I made for her, to celebrate her new love of reading.

I used Close to Cocoa, Cameo Coral, Chocolate Chip, and Almost Amethyst, with Basic grey Taffeta ribbon, and the Itty Bitty Stamp set. And most importantly, the owl punch. What do you think?

    *Squeal* Love it. Just the thing for any young (or old) reader. I love a decent and cute book mark and I am sure Ellie was pleased.
