Practicing Creativity is the result of a dream, a supportive husband, and a fantastic book called A Million Miles in a Thousand Years by Donald Miller. After a year of wishing and dreaming of designing stamps we made the plunge. We were determined to try, and the quote below helps remind us of our dream.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” Mark Twain
Our Goal First we want to provide you with fantastic designs, made with top quality materials, and great service to boot! Secondly we want you to be inspired! We hope you'll find our products as well as our design team as fuel for your inspiration. 
Thank you to all of you who have encouraged and supported us!

"I am a 46 yr old part-time nurse living in beautiful 
“cottage country” of Muskoka Ontario Canada.
 I have been married to the most wonderful man 
for the last 21 yrs and we have a fantastic 18 yr old daughter
who will be graduating from college this Spring!
I have been a scrapbooker for about 7 years and 
a card maker for about 3 yrs. 
During the summer months I love to compete in triathlons.
I am very competitive LOL! 
I am so thrilled to be a part of the Play Date Café Design Team
and to contribute to their colour challenges for.....
I just LOVE colour !!!!"

We are also excited to welcome.....

"My love for paper crafting began eight years ago
when I attended a stamping party for my mom.  
As soon as I saw what I could do with stamps, I was hooked!
  As a child who always loved design, color and drawing 
(and having a graphic design degree), 
stamping came naturally.  
Though I dabble in scrapbooking a bit, 
my true love is making cards. 
Card making has become a great healing tool for me. 
I now find myself spending almost every day 
in my craft room creating something...
all while balancing the life of being 
a stay-at-home mom to three beautiful children.
  Other things I enjoy are 
sewing...Disco...the word "awesome"...
kickboxing...cooking...serving in my church.  
I love sharing paper crafting with others.  
My aim is that my blog and work will inspire people
to not only create, but to try new things as well."

We are thrilled to have both of these talented ladies
with us for at least the next six months!
Make sure you make a visit to their blogs 
and encourage them...you're gonna love what you see!

We are excited to welcome
Tracey & Jaclyn!
