Heart to Heart

Be Safe and Hug your loved ones

Always pray to have the eyes that see the best in people,

a heart that forgives the worst,

a mind that forgets the bad

and a soul that never loses faith in God.

The Four Agreements - by Don Miguel Ruiz

Be Impeccable With Your Word

Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean.

Avoid using the word to speak against

yourself or to gossip about others.

Use the power of your word in the direction of Truth & Love.

Don't Take Anything Personal

Nothing others do is because of you.

What others say and do is a projection of their own dream.

When you are immune to the opinions and

actions of others, you won't be the victim. 

Don't Make Assumptions

Find the courage to ask questions and

to express what you really want.

Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama.

With just this one agreement,

you can completely transform your life.

Always Do Your Best

Your best is going to change from moment to moment, it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick.

Under any circumstance, simply do your best

and you will avoid self judgement, self-abuse and regret.

I am a bit sassy, compassionate, silly,

energizer bunny like and crazy in love with my

kiddos and grand kiddos!! 

My daughter Jen showed me how to make a

unique folding album.

And then my daughter Maggie took the

albums to Sequim and sold them for about

6 months in a little country store.

She then invited me to participate in

an event with her art group.

This meant I was going to be selling

things I made in person - scary!!

But what a great experience, I sold out of almost everything!!!

In Sequim, I met the manager of

The Fremont Sunday Market in Seattle.

He encouraged me to give the Market a try -

that's when things really took off!!

My hobby became a business, I was and am still having FUN!! 

It began with my hand painted & designed paper.

I use the paper on my cards & my

unique folding origami albums.

My designs have also been transferred to fabric!!

My Nirvana would be to walk into a fabric store

and see my own line of fabric on bolts, all lined

up just waiting for someone’s special project!!

(this is the condensed version of my story)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 The unique folding albums I make can be used as a

group birthday, get well, baby or wedding card.

Many people have used the album

as a wedding guest book!

Endless potential for these folding albums!

So many fun ideas or just give an empty

album as a gift and let someone else

explore the possibilities!!

Themes available for children,

sports, outdoor, cooking, artsy, etc., etc., etc.
