aka Curl E. Cue

Hi, I’m Tara Sell and I live in Oregon with my hubby, my step-daughter, two kitties, one terrier and a pug.  To pay the bills I work at the Oregon Department of Forestry as a budget analyst and then I come home and counter balance all the numbers with lots of creative crafting!  I started my blog, Curl E. Cue’s, about three years ago when I first discovered the joy that is stamping.  In July of 2015 I expanded onto YouTube and discovered that I truly love sharing the techniques I use through video tutorials.  I love playing with almost any crafty product, from inks to stamps to mixed media, but my favorite thing to do is use different mediums to color adorable images!  The passion and kindness that I have felt from other crafters in the short time I have been a part of this community continues to amaze me and I am so honored to be a part of it all!
Tara took the stamp set Fishy Fun and created sparkly shaker cards.

Hi everybody! It’s Maureen here with more Whatcha Watching? Ever since I saw Jennifer McGuire’s post about Sharing Handmade Kindness, I knew I wanted to participate in my own little way.  Here’s what I came up with:
