HAPPY EASTER!

Hope you all have a wonderful Easter with your friends and family. The bunny was here last night and left eggs everywhere filled with chocolate!

Here is a couple of cards I worked on over the last week.

The sentiment inside was heat embossed and says, "Egg-specially for you!"

Tip Tuesday at the Creative Cutter Room

April 3rd, 2012

Hello! I am so happy to be part of the Creative Cutter Room's Tip Tuesday. Today, I have a quick and helpful tip to help you organize your stamps.

I love stamps! I love to shop for stamps, I love to use stamps on whatever I can, when I can! These are all my small stamp sets. I buy the "Studio G" stamps and the "Studio 112" stamps at Michaels. I love that they only cost between fifty cents and a dollar.

I had these stamps all stacked in a drawer. When I am working on a project, I have to go through all my stamps to find either a sentiment or a picture stamp. It takes up time and wasn't very organized. I needed a better system.

I had some empty CD cases from a while back. I took out the black centers that hold the CD in place, so that they were empty.

I took out all the stamps and tried to lay them in piles of sentiments, Spring, Halloween, Christmas, etc. It took me a few minutes to decide how I wanted the stamps organized, but I finally found a system I thought would work for me.

Then, I started putting the stamps in the cases. Some stamps will stick to the top of the case, while others stick to the back (it depends on whether it is a cling stamp or a clear stamp). When you close the CD case, the stamps will fit perfectly. Then, I ran into a small glich. Some of the stamps you can't quite see what they say or make out the picture, unless you look very closely. I wanted to be able to grab it quickly and be able to use it. So, I decided to cut up the clear cling page the stamps come on and adhere that to the CD case. Perfect!

I have one case just for sentiments, one case for Christmas, once case for Halloween, a case for Fall/ Thanksgiving and one case for Spring/Summer.

Hope you enjoyed my tip!

A Giveaway! Happy One Year (Blog)aversary To Me!

October 30th, 2011

Wow! It's hard to believe it's been one year! My very first post was posted on November 14th. So, in honor of one year, I have decided to have a giveaway!

It has been such a great year. I was recently looking through my archives and I look back on some of my first projects and can't believe how much I have grown as a crafter in 12 months. Part of that, is because of you! I have never met you, but I certainly have got to know some of you through your comments and emails. I thank you so much for such a great year. You have left such sweet comments and have sent me such wonderful thoughtful emails.

So, here's what I have for you:

1 six inch Cricut mat

2 packs of stickers

2 bottles of glitter glue

4 stamps

1 ribbon

(Plus I may be adding more over the next couple of weeks)
