Always late to the party, I find that I am only now really digging into the artsy side of this hobby. I've developed a strong interest in creating an art journal, and in fact, will begin that process this weekend while I'm away at a retreat. Don't get me wrong, I have TONS of artsy supplies already - paints, stains, inks, sprays, mists, even gesso. And I love getting messy and seeing what I can create. I just have yet to translate that into my regular scrappy routine. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
At any rate, I've been on the hunt for videos and tutorials showing how to use certain products, and I came across <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JnTCLN7--c" target="_blank">this video</a>, which triggered my memory of <a href="http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/mb.asp?cmd=display&thread_id=3239184" target="_blank">this thread on 2Ps</a>, in which a generous poster shared her recipe for making your own modeling paste. I just had to try it! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I started by gathering my supplies: talcum powder, Elmer's glue, acrylic paint, a craft stick, and a screw-on lidded container.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 tablespoons of the glue, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and 2 tablespoons of the paint. The original poster suggested using white paint. I didn't have any, so I used cream instead. For my purposes, it worked great.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRK-BUerLWNLs0lTLHirAu8Gx-r9Eif_sqXUZ2CkQgy0idRkBedL0UhuWbTUwZaEMoDT7dcSvgbSq6Da_AZ2_Z8kMLtUpZJdQ_VlapWPEhoF5flOnm98cVx8NC2TUqbWMCDAuvL36q6f4/s1600/Step+4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="236" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRK-BUerLWNLs0lTLHirAu8Gx-r9Eif_sqXUZ2CkQgy0idRkBedL0UhuWbTUwZaEMoDT7dcSvgbSq6Da_AZ2_Z8kMLtUpZJdQ_VlapWPEhoF5flOnm98cVx8NC2TUqbWMCDAuvL36q6f4/s320/Step+4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The next step was to stir. I found that the mixture was a little too dry, so I added what probably amounted to another tablespoon of the glue.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB09bY_p_R926BPECe0zJ7kxW4OcN1A7Ctpg4duWRXXWvGB1uBSQZZ3jcp0V5fcgsEvjxZD2a9zKrunVuMdLT2qUtsmx6oxYlQqIf9ckGwoM81ILDK3qwKSDu4up0dCv6oLdCPMAdk7So/s1600/Step+5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB09bY_p_R926BPECe0zJ7kxW4OcN1A7Ctpg4duWRXXWvGB1uBSQZZ3jcp0V5fcgsEvjxZD2a9zKrunVuMdLT2qUtsmx6oxYlQqIf9ckGwoM81ILDK3qwKSDu4up0dCv6oLdCPMAdk7So/s320/Step+5.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I got the consistency I had hoped for. To be honest, I've never used "real" modeling paste, so I didn't really know what I was after.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg63Y7ILoo0mrMt0cJtFPRNvtqy9a93vx-uDi3HBIQDHkigoTRK_BQ6CERPC1Y8h-QwjLxOhBoO9DXf_AkqW_5wX76kev9QxFgJBt_br9UtkmmF-JNnWBYx5MJXX3IBbf1jhJmFOro0VpU/s1600/Step+6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg63Y7ILoo0mrMt0cJtFPRNvtqy9a93vx-uDi3HBIQDHkigoTRK_BQ6CERPC1Y8h-QwjLxOhBoO9DXf_AkqW_5wX76kev9QxFgJBt_br9UtkmmF-JNnWBYx5MJXX3IBbf1jhJmFOro0VpU/s1600/Step+6.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
So now that my recipe was complete, I wanted to test out the final product on an actual project! I started with a plain manila tag, then did a quick watercolor technique with Distress Inks. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Bonus DIY: I so loved the butterfly from the video that I wanted to recreate it. I still have Make the Cut software on my little old personal Cricut, so I was able to cut the images I wanted and to place them where I wanted them to be. I'm not sure, but I *THINK* Silhouette users have the same ability. Anyway, I did a Google images search for "butterfly stencil," came up with TONS of images, and chose a bunch that I liked. Grouped them together on the virtual mat, set it to multi-cut 5 times, loaded a 6 x 6 stencil blank, and bam! Custom stencils! </div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The homemade paste went on like butter. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
It worked exactly as I had hoped it would. I hit it with the heat gun for a little bit to hurry </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
along the drying process. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, I used my two favorite Distress Ink colors - Broken China and Dusty Concord - to wash over the paste. Next time I'll probably just use a mist, but I like the funky effect of this well enough. And, bonus - it smells sweet too!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
So there you have it! Go mix up a batch and show me what you do with it!<br />
<br />
Here's that recipe, directly from the post on 2Ps:<br />
1/2 cup Baking Soda or Talcum Powder<br />
2 Tablespoons PVA glue ( the white glue that dries clear)<br />
1-2 Tablespoons acrylic paint. ( I usually use white )<br />
Mix all together and store in an airtight container. I found that the talc gives a smoother texture than the baking soda. .....and it smells nice too. You may need to add a few drops if water to get the right consistency.<br />
(Quoting kiwifarmer)<br />
<br />
P.S. Make-the-Cut software has a pixel trace function that allows the images I found on Google to be converted to cut files.<br />
P.P.S. There is no way I can find time in my schedule to do a DIY Friday post every week, so at this point I'm aiming for more like once a month, probably the first Friday of every month. I hope you enjoy them!

Hello and welcome to our little Christmas in July blog hop! If you're following along, you've just come from <a href="http://myreillyboysandme.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Jen's blog</a>. If you're just dropping in, you can catch the beginning of the hop at <a href="http://scrapmachine.com/" target="_blank">Ruth's blog</a>. In either case, I've got lots to show you, so stick around!<br />
<br />
Like most people, I take tons of photos in December, especially on Christmas Day. Now that my sons are older, I don't feel as overwhelming a need to scrapbook every. single. one. Still, even paring down leaves me with a dozen or more photos to work with.<br />
<br />
I had tons of BoBunny Blitzen papers and embellishments left over from a class I taught last year, so I employed it in creating these layouts:<br />

I found that I still had tons of Christmas morning photos even after I made these layouts, so I switched to pocket pages to store and display the rest of them. I recently bought several sheets of cream-colored notebook paper at Hobby Lobby, and I immediately came home and sliced them all up into 4x6 and 6x4 blocks for creating journaling blocks for just such pages. A few embellishments and some handwriting, and voila!</div>

Do you love the look of those adorable little enamel dots, but don't have any in your stash? I can't remember exactly what got me started on this quest, but at some point recently, I started looking for ways to create my own enamel dots. I found an interesting tutorial on YouTube that used floral beads, and it seemed like an inexpensive way to create (and recreate, as needed) tons of these little gems. I couldn't find the beads, though, so I started doing some brainstorming of my own. Here's my first attempt:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I started with copy transparencies I already had on hand (I use these to store my unmounted rubber stamps on). I rounded up a couple of nail polish colors from my bathroom cabinet, and picked up a few more from Dollar Tree and Walmart. I also gathered up all my small circle punches.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgew8XaoBKSzkqFa8v3cTeJeD_4a7a4qDINUh50OAQI_690vi0-R58zXZh3oCN7t7wR-t44jAvDnZ5mbfUpoykKQHtSk2mmBLpbDAnc5jHvXFhN6CqtdJzbUB3-B0WnD463B2XSBsnBtpo/s320/P1140080.JPG" width="320" /> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Next, I painted a coat of each of the colors I wanted to use onto the transparency, then let it sit to dry for about 10 minutes. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibmzlefA5MRZr2Xl52qEjxCWRtT34xlwxjU-hlGe4jvOKXEE7f3HLwfp0rAhQ3TBfU3tR6E8i8O-LNt-JDMGqRwVEXKk60fFZxDVKGKcNoLDYzNct093ojfCdcElXBGZIs0IfQk88kBtY/s1600/P1140081.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibmzlefA5MRZr2Xl52qEjxCWRtT34xlwxjU-hlGe4jvOKXEE7f3HLwfp0rAhQ3TBfU3tR6E8i8O-LNt-JDMGqRwVEXKk60fFZxDVKGKcNoLDYzNct093ojfCdcElXBGZIs0IfQk88kBtY/s320/P1140081.JPG" width="320" /> </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I cut out my strips in preparation to punch them. I liked the look of one coat, but to get more even coverage, I decided to go ahead and do a second coat. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHWP09hS_IxgNBczbOA5RL9C-v1IPRr9imLtp6RL8lmYSzyladMk8DUyI4XiPXXR_bPFjE8asbkYfuSmXCgCYxF1aFmNskH5A2eVaGJCwv4iUSAXB91QNOOdUOnHDpD3OGYyfDRkySNJk/s1600/P1140083.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHWP09hS_IxgNBczbOA5RL9C-v1IPRr9imLtp6RL8lmYSzyladMk8DUyI4XiPXXR_bPFjE8asbkYfuSmXCgCYxF1aFmNskH5A2eVaGJCwv4iUSAXB91QNOOdUOnHDpD3OGYyfDRkySNJk/s320/P1140083.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can see here that the strips of color do have some transparency to them, though I wasn't sure how that would translate on the actual scrapbook page.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Time to punch! I had this little "craft punch" that makes circles about 3/8 of an inch. It's not a very sturdy punch, and eventually got so it didn't stand up very well to the acetate. It began to hang up, so I had to abandon that, even though I liked the size.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAVTlTWqmS3fG72LxC01W3weJLHeMutFqJqIkoxkeE2NB6hK1m-sAKtUTHUAtAgU26W_1OuY2F4gwjW83po1WIoPxr57wHQNd9agHRIO__ejVxC9BoFtMTadqLinpeYNVo311lF21kZXw/s1600/P1140084.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAVTlTWqmS3fG72LxC01W3weJLHeMutFqJqIkoxkeE2NB6hK1m-sAKtUTHUAtAgU26W_1OuY2F4gwjW83po1WIoPxr57wHQNd9agHRIO__ejVxC9BoFtMTadqLinpeYNVo311lF21kZXw/s320/P1140084.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Next, I tried my Crop-a-dile. This little workhorse punched right through the plastic like a hot knife through butter, but I quickly saw that the little circles tended to fly all over the place!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjleJJrcJd6AUg1Yr4k0bP9d4iPjBZM77nkIrg6PZz2uiIPB3dPI84rIt3rzbMNnq4VtVP3TZLhI0QNgtD4DL0yUX3aYuobdWQZllbDGWvFKpnUvYYPv2fBpP_sb4MKF8Q3zXsi_5LRAQc/s1600/P1140086.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjleJJrcJd6AUg1Yr4k0bP9d4iPjBZM77nkIrg6PZz2uiIPB3dPI84rIt3rzbMNnq4VtVP3TZLhI0QNgtD4DL0yUX3aYuobdWQZllbDGWvFKpnUvYYPv2fBpP_sb4MKF8Q3zXsi_5LRAQc/s320/P1140086.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I tried punching with the Crop-a-dile facing so that the punchies could fall directly into the little plastic cup I was collecting them in. Eventually, I started holding my left hand over the top and then ejecting the punchies, but that left me with no hands to take pictures! ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, I tried my old-fashioned hole-punch. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL6ORtTCm_PpzOy8zx8tRTbpL44WTOyzdyTpB5douiDyH6VHVGk9xzXCmSu0N8V0IqL7ZSL6NLdrcEUCPax2FZO2XjfOzpCICPVw3-9DHtVeDr6dG8Bp8HBpUOMQT-iFNkS9ngsn1Kwdk/s1600/P1140088.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL6ORtTCm_PpzOy8zx8tRTbpL44WTOyzdyTpB5douiDyH6VHVGk9xzXCmSu0N8V0IqL7ZSL6NLdrcEUCPax2FZO2XjfOzpCICPVw3-9DHtVeDr6dG8Bp8HBpUOMQT-iFNkS9ngsn1Kwdk/s320/P1140088.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found that it didn't completely punch the circle,so went back to the Crop-a-dile to finish out the job.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDeDkwxYZu0BZQkrBy2buGm7VHB2iJz7vXOl3Mo21qYWxP_0RKN98XTAhy46sP9nFrczFd3DfosZ10pTQBA8iZwV59sGcIyv8y8y4sP6RPge3hMMufPm4mSzHfeUVfAJdFdeJ3sdWzrPg/s1600/P1140089.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDeDkwxYZu0BZQkrBy2buGm7VHB2iJz7vXOl3Mo21qYWxP_0RKN98XTAhy46sP9nFrczFd3DfosZ10pTQBA8iZwV59sGcIyv8y8y4sP6RPge3hMMufPm4mSzHfeUVfAJdFdeJ3sdWzrPg/s320/P1140089.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, in the end I had a cup full of - you've probably already guessed this - candy-colored confetti. That's right, my creations look more like confetti than the coveted enamel dots. And they did not have an adhesive backing, which meant I would need to use some sort of liquid glue to attach them. Still, I had to see how they would look on a layout.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoakvmjOGFdL2TXwbIbiZP32LtTTJ37n9RQZBnj671LxHHt_cMrhH8YB7HMgiGl2st3_iG5BAhMiCQDS2LkYRbsDve2DSHX0KPlL2OW_uNScNYGe06f5pbLa0iodS2728PjdYNsvU9PC4/s1600/P1140090.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoakvmjOGFdL2TXwbIbiZP32LtTTJ37n9RQZBnj671LxHHt_cMrhH8YB7HMgiGl2st3_iG5BAhMiCQDS2LkYRbsDve2DSHX0KPlL2OW_uNScNYGe06f5pbLa0iodS2728PjdYNsvU9PC4/s320/P1140090.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just so happened, I had one that needed a little extra "something," so I gave it a go, and this is what I came up with: </div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have to say, while I like the end result (I may play with adding a few more), but this was not the look I was ultimately going for. I still have another idea or two I may try. And I think I'll use the rest of my confetti on some card creations!</div>

Hey all!<br />
<br />
I've just come back from vacation, and it was wonderful! Hubby and I went back to Gatlinburg, Tennessee for the 3rd time. We stayed an entire week, and we even drove over into North Carolina and visited the Biltmore Estate. It was breathtaking, and I could never imagine living like that!<br />
<br />

At any rate, before we left, I ordered some new lovelies for my Etsy
shop, and they arrived while we were away. These fabric ribbon tapes are
repositionable like washi, but they are made of actual cotton fabric.
Look for some projects putting these little honies to use in upcoming
posts. Meanwhile, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/KwiteKreative" target="_blank">hop on over to the shop</a> and pick up a few feet to play with! <br />

Okay, so I'm not the most faithful blogger (something I am working on!), but I do love to return to my favorites over and over. I've had a love affair going on with Google Reader for quite some time, but, alas, they announced earlier this year that they will be discontinuing their reader service effective July 1.<br />
<br />
So after a mourning period, I began searching for an alternative way to collect and keep my favorites all in one place. I tried a couple, only to find that they were linked to Google Reader, and would not work once it disappeared. So back to Square One. Then the other day, I happened across one of my NEW favorite blogs, <a href="http://scrapourstash.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scrap Our Stash</a>, and noticed that there on the right was a little link saying "Follow my blog with Bloglovin." Curious, I clicked through, and found (to my delight) a NEW way to follow all my blogs WITHOUT having to rebuild my list again from scratch or import each one, one at a time. Yes, Bloglovin even does the heavy lifting of importation for you! Hallelujah!<br />
<br />
So, if you love your blogs like I do, consider setting up an account with <a href="http://bloglovin.com/" target="_blank">Bloglovin</a>. It's free, easy, and fun! (Oh, and if you're migrating over from Reader and need help figuring out how, just leave me a comment or shoot me an email - I'd be glad to help you out!)<br />

P.S. Notice I now I have MY OWN little button that says "Follow my blog with Bloglovin!" Go ahead, click. It won't hurt a bit! :)Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4835997865253071390.post-85718101620953820632013-06-10T17:35:00.000-05:002013-06-10T17:51:49.809-05:00Fancy Pants and FlickrAt long last I got the chance to scrap with two of my good friends, and we had a blast catching up and creating pages.

In other news, while I've got a little free time (yay summer!), I've decided to collect all my "kreations" into one spot. So if you're ever of a mind, you can stop by my new <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kwitekreative/" target="_blank">Flickr photostream</a> and see for yourself how my scrapbooking and cardmaking has evolved over time. It is in fact, still in progress, as the site won't let you upload more than 200 photos at a time - yikes! I'll be back later in the week to showcase a few of my personal faves. And if you're on Flickr, I'd love to see your photos - leave me a comment or drop me an email at kwitekreative@aol.com.<br />
<br />
Till next time!<br />

On a recent shopping trip to Hobby Lobby I found silver conchos and realized they would do the job. I had already ordered a strap cover from my thirty-one consultant so when it came in I couldn't wait to pretty it up. Now if I could just find that lens cover...<br />

LOL)<br />
<br />
Hello all! Back again to take you on a little tour of my creative space.
Funny thing - I should be posting pictures of my over-full rolling
totes, because these days, it seems the only time I get things done is
at a crop. But, I am blessed to have my own scrappy space (and WAY too
much stuff to organize in it) so I'll show you that instead. ;)<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6CfFxtrKtgt36WE6YCkturCkWryY47FCYLMb_Pa8camyG9XoBEXQLXqn7sROSVcxmsyNIFzdLxbjDsnDTdtmhp0cIlMgyCUNcMMlT4NSaQ2OvbEG1r0wxhOQXMzCRS7FPySx25Gzydag/s1600/1.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="296" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6CfFxtrKtgt36WE6YCkturCkWryY47FCYLMb_Pa8camyG9XoBEXQLXqn7sROSVcxmsyNIFzdLxbjDsnDTdtmhp0cIlMgyCUNcMMlT4NSaQ2OvbEG1r0wxhOQXMzCRS7FPySx25Gzydag/s400/1.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
My room is about 10 x 12, so I use it as an office, small crop store,
and scrap studio. I've got the majority of my scrappy items together in
an L-shaped configuration with my desk and mesh cubes from Target.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The desk is made from a hollow core door that I spray painted black and 2
Wal-Mart bookshelves that my hubby and I "hacked" to make the whole
thing desk-height. I love the large work surface! On top is a plastic
mat from Ikea that I use to protect the desktop. All my heavily-used
tools are at arm's length. My tool tote is on a lazy susan, because,
although my name's not Susan, well... On the bookshelves underneath I
have all my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/KwiteKreative" target="_blank">Etsy </a>supplies and a few lesser-used tools. There's also an
Iris cart that holds all my Cricut supplies, a 12 x 12 drawer unit, and
my "basket of shame" - a picnic basket that holds my obscene amount of
scraps.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The mesh cubes hold all my papers, cardstock, page protectors, embellishments, ribbons, paints, templates, and project files.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This wire rack sits on top of my desk against the wall. I don't love it -
it looks too cluttery. I'll probably build my mesh cubes up another
level to hold the stuff from the shelf and install some Bygel rails on
the wall where it is now.<br />

This little bookshelf holds lots of stamps and inks. I'm obsessed with
stamps. I remember telling my CTMH representative many years ago that I
wasn't going to get into stamps. Now I have more than I can use. I'll be
writing a blog post about this very soon, so check it out.<br />

stamps," so I keep them on my desk in hopes that I'll remember to use
them.<br />

This doesn't technically qualify as new content, but I was playing around with Wordle for a class assignment today, and thought I'd see what it came up with when I typed in my blog address. Pretty cool, if you ask me.<br />
<br />
So,yeah. It's been a while since I've posted here. I have these visions of posting great stuff at least once a week, then life gets in the way and a month and a half goes by before I find myself here again. Last month I was a guest poster on the MemoryWorks blog, so that's where all my new content ended up. This month? Well, let's just say that taking a technology class AND a reading comprehension class is about to do me in. But this too shall pass, and soon I will be free to happily post away again. Famous last words and all. :) Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4835997865253071390.post-62480514766890771692013-02-16T11:33:00.001-06:002013-02-16T11:34:52.758-06:00NEW My Mind's Eye and February Express Kit Reveal Some of my favorites from CHA-W came from My Mind's Eye, so I am ecstatic to see them already in the <a href="http://www.memory-works.com/admin/" target="_blank">MemoryWorks store</a>!

This month's class takes a cue from Valentine's Day, in both colors and title work. We used the Tailored collection kit from Echo Park's For the Record line to create these sweet-as-sugar layouts. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Lots of layers and little touches made this kit great fun to work with. I haven't quite decided what photos I'd like to use. I'm thinking of picking some of my favorites from our annual family Valentine banquet, or I may use some photos of some of the sweet babies in our lives. Goodness knows, there aren't any photos of me sewing! LOL</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Watch for the other four layouts I created with this kit in a future post.</div>

January was a fun month for me, scrappy supplies-wise. I hosted a catalog party for my friend Dee. See, originally, I only wanted something to carry my Big Kick in. I do love to have it with me when I go places to crop.<br />
<br />
Then Dee told me about the Sale-a-bration, so I decided to see what was what, and how much free stuff I could earn. Let me tell you, I was NOT disappointed! My friends and I placed an order over $250 (pretty good for short notice, and being right after the holidays), so I got 4 free Sale-a-bration items PLUS the bonus glitter paper they give to all hostesses this month in celebration of their 25th anniversary. So of the items you see in this picture, I only actually ordered the Big Kick Dr. bag (which I LOVE!), the doily stamp set, and the basic label stamp. That's it. The rest I either got from Sale-a-bration items or free hostess goodies. And I've already started to play. Woohoo!<br />

The other order I received this month is for 3 collection kits I'm considering using in some upcoming classes, either local, online, or at the community college. I got Basic Grey Clippings, Echo Park Hello, Spring, and Crate Paper On Trend. I just think these collections are super-versatile and will make some gorgeous layouts.<br />

I always love CHA time. LOVE seeing all the new goodies my favorite companies come out with. LOVE anticipating their arrival in stores and, of course, if I'm lucky, in my MemoryWorks catalog!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is a quick roundup of some of my favorites, in no particular order:</div>

In this line, I'm loving the bolder colors. I'm always a huge fan of blue and green, maybe because I tend to scrapbook mostly masculine layouts (what with being the only female in a family of 4). Again, the patterns are good for everyday scrapping, and can be used with almost any photos.<u><b> </b></u></div>

Little Yellow Bicycle has become one of my favorite companies in recent years, and I tend to love a lot of their stuff. I just love this new line, even though it uses more reds and oranges (there are touches of my blues and greens, but not many). I'm envisioning lots of lovely cards, and maybe some layouts of my lovely nieces as well. :)<u><b> </b></u></div>

Be still my heart! Two of my favorite things in one product line - travel and Simple Stories! Overwhelmingly, most of what I scrapbook are vacation photos, so I'm always excited to see new travel lines come out, and when I find one I like, I try to get as much of it as I can. The way Simple Stories packages their collections, you get a TON of product for your money. Even though I'm not sure where or when my next vacation will take place, I'm thinking I might even be able to scrap an entire album with these goodies.<u><b> </b></u></div>

Something about this line has really captured my imagination! While I don't tend to scrap a lot of food- or kitchen-related photos, I can see using a lot of the patterns in these papers for other types of pages. This one will be fun to play with, I think, and the embellishments are yummy! (pun intended ;)<u><b> </b></u></div>

I like this line for obvious reasons - those being that I have a husband and 2 sons to scrap about. These patterns are super-versatile, and I can use them with most any photos of my 3 favorite subjects. I also really like the flags and label stickers, and am eager to play with those.<u><b> </b></u></div>
