I recently had a couple of requests for a build-your-own-ice-cream pack and as soon as I read them I know just what I wanted to call the new set. The old childhood phrase of “I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!” brought back so many happy memories of yummy ice cream treats …

When I was deciding what to make for NSD this year I went back to my trusty list of suggestions and again picked the theme with the most requests. (By the way, I can’t tell you how useful it is to have that list, I’m shockingly bad at making decisions so having you tell me …
I’m wrapping up the month with another Creative Team Gallery! I always love seeing all the pages and projects from the team and all the creative ways they use my illustrations to create their cards, scrapbook pages and teaching resources. This month it’s a mixed bag of spring, wizards and April Fools, I hope you …
