My Craft Space

I recently reorganized my creative space and now feel like I have a small palace inside my house.  I just LOVE it!  It's very organized and presentable.  Most of it is created from organization cubes that I altered to be paper racks.  I left some cubes as they were to store larger items.  Look at my creation...

Here are some close ups of the paper racks and cubes.

Then of course there is my cat "Dizzle" who just loves to be anywhere he shouldn't be ;)

I love the extra table space for friends and students or for spreading out a project on.  Plus, I have another table that I can pull up when needed.  So exciting!

Pennant Alphabet Stamp

Hello Everyone!  I want to share with you a very fun card I made today for a friend who just had a baby girl named Bella.  I used a brand new stamp set from Close To My Heart (E1018 Pennant Alphabet available to customers February 1st, 2011 for $34.95).  This stamp set is perfect for adding letters with a little bit of fun.  I simply stamped my letters (using a technique from our new Spring/Summer 2011 Idea Book) and then cut them out.  I attached the letters to some floss to make a banner across the front proudly displaying her name.  The glitter was adhered with simple scotch tape!  Easy peasy!  If you would like a new catalog from Close To My Heart or want to order the stamp set please feel free to contact me or stop by my online store.  Click the shopping cart located to your right and you'll be directed to my store.  Thanks for stopping by and God Bless!  Please take a look at other new products from CTMH by clicking on a link below.  Enjoy hopping!

Paper Roses

I made my very first utube video... sad thing, I can't up load it  :(  Positive thing, I made these beautiful flowers!!  Another positive thing, I WILL get this utube thing straightened out and upload a great tutorial!  Meanwhile, aren't these beautiful?!?  They are made very easily by cutting a spiral out of a square piece of paper and then quiling it to the end.  Add some Liquid Glass (exclusively available from Close To My Heart) to add an appearance of fresh wetness and your done!  Beautiful paper roses :)  You can easily create these beauties on your own, give it a try!
