Wow, I have been very absentee lately. But since it was a holiday week, maybe no one even noticed! We went to visit family in St. George, Utah for Thanksgiving week. I was soooo proud of myself as I was head chef for the day and able to do my usual cooking. And Jordan, if you are reading this, we missed you!!! Here was the spread: Looking at this food again is making me so hungry! Thanksgiving dinner is definitely my favorite meal of the year. Too bad I'm always so tired from cooking that I don't get to adequately enjoy this feast!!! The pink stuff on the right is one of the best parts of the meal. We call... Read more →
My name is Suzy Plantamura. I live in sunny Orange County, California by the beach. I have three kids, one grand baby, and two dogs. I draw watercolor cards and design stamps for Simon Says Stamp. I have a blog series called "one stamp, five ways" that I post to two times a week. I want to motivate and inspire others to use their stamp sets more and learn new techniques. I love designing products and making cards to share with others!

Project Life Week 39 - Party Week!
Hello blog friends! I finished two spreads for my Project Life last week - very proud of myself! I am catching up on some of my weeks out of order - so please don't try to figure out my sequence as it makes no sense lately! Sophie's birthday party was this week, so I had lots of photos to include. I took one of the 12x12 page protectors that has nine 4x4 spots and cut it down to just four spots to use as an insert between the two pages. Here is the spread with this insert included. The left side is the regular weekly happenings/photos/overview. The flap and second side is all about the birthday party. Side one includes... Read more →

Project Life Week 40
Hello Friends. Guess what I have to talk about / show today?!?!?!? The only scrapping I am doing lately - Project Life again. Hope I'm not boring any of you.

Project Life Organization
I took the photos in this post on my phone some time ago, so please forgive the quality. My supplies aren't quite so neat now that I am in the middle of catch up stage, so I don't want to take new ones. I use one 12x12 plastic scrapbook storage container to store all my Project Life supplies and I keep it under my bed with the album on top. I tend to scrap on the go, so it can go with me easily. On the go means in front of whichever tv my family is in front of at that time. I wish it meant something more exciting! I first picked a color scheme for my PL pages to... Read more →
