where scrapbooking is a work of heart :)
Hi All…..
It’s time for a FABULOUS FRIDAY!!!! So last night I was answering some emails and the one big question everyone had was…..How did you make that template that you used in yesterday’s video. So last night I sat down and did a quick video on how to make a template using the Cricut Gypsy….
I hope this helps and stay tuned for more Gypsy Tips….
Hope you have a fabulous Friday and an even more spectacular weekend….
Hugs
OK I know, I know….It’s been too too too long since I’ve done a Cricut video….I needed a little break, but I’m back and ready to create (or Cricut).
I charged up my Gypsy and…
Here are a few pictures….
Happy Tuesday. Today’s tip is 8-1/2 x 11 cardstock….
My favorite basic white card stock is by Georgia Pacific (found at Walmart). It’s great for the base of cards, making flowers and cutting with your Cricut….
For Copic coloring I prefer Neenah Cardstock….rich and creamy
For colored cardstock I’m Paper Trey Ink all the way. The quality is amazing and I love the color selection as well as being able to order 12 sheets for $3 or 24 for $5. They also have matching ribbon ;0)
Storage:
When I went to Ikea a few weeks ago I picked up these (2/$3.99) magazine files.
Inside the magazine files, I use file folders from Michael’s dollar spot to separate my cardstock by color. When I first started I was writing the name of the company/color on the folder, but found that if I just cut a slit in the plastic that they come in I can just slide my cardstock out and keep the label inside the original package. This way I don’t have to relabel the files if I decided not to reorder that same color.
I keep my scraps right in front of the original package, so I reach for those first 🙂
Stay Tuned next week for 12×12 cardstock and pattern paper 🙂
Hugs,
Are we ready for the new blog line-up? It’s time for some Monday Mojo…….I’m excited for the new blog line-up and I hope you are too….
Today I’m back as a guest designer for BlueMoonScrapbooking and we’re playing with the new Graphic 45 Hallowe’en in Wonderland Collection. Here’s a mini album I made using the collection and a few other fun supplies.
Hope you enjoy today’s video:
and here are a few photo’s to go along with it……
Hi All,
It’s done, I finished all the categories and you can now find the complete list up above under the categories tab. Here’s a direct link to the CATEGORIES….I did a lot of cross referencing to help you out in finding what you are looking for.
I also finished up the section for Cricut (left hand side towards the bottom). They are broken down by cartridge and I included anything Cricut related like Design Studio, Gypsy, and more….I did take notice that there are a lot of cartridges I haven’t used yet. Better get cracking…
Hope this helps and if you come across anything weird that shouldn’t be listed under a specific category please let me know. After a while I got a little stir crazy and who knows what category I may have put something under….
Thanks for your patience while I worked on these two sections.
Big Hugs,
Hi everyone,
Happy Wednesday….OK I’ve been doing a lot of thinking and I’ve decided that it’s time I get a schedule going with my blog. As you know I try to post something everyday. Sometimes it’s a video, a project or a storage tip. I’m all over the place and I love all kinds of paper crafting (you probably could already tell that right?) SOOOO it’s time for a blog line-up. Here’s the schedule
Monday’s will be “Monday Mojo” Video with a project tutorial.
Tuesday’s will be “Tuesday Tips“Mostly some scrappy storage ideas or tips on great deals etc. You never know what I might come up with…
Wednesday’s-“Whimsical Wednesday” Anything from a completed card, scrapbook page, or mini album.
Thursday- “Thursday Expressions” This will definitely be a video day featuring a project from a Cricut Cartridge.
Friday-“Fabulous Friday” Another day to post completed projects.
Saturday’s and Sunday’s will be my days off. However you never know what you might find…
I probably won’t post much over the next couple of days. I want to finish up getting the categories section on my blog updated and the Cricut Cartridges list completed on the left. It’s taking me a while to get these all done, but I’m almost there
I just wanted to say Thank You to all of you who visit me everyday. You are all so amazing and talented.
I really enjoy your emails, comments, and scrappy thoughts.
Bigs Hugs,
So this has been one of my biggest storage problem areas and I’ve tried it all…From wrapping them on clothespins to keeping them on the rolls. Finally I think I have it…A while back I posted a picture of my ribbons storage. This is just a revised version of what I was doing before….
Now I use those awesome 3M removable hooks (I love love love 3M hooks). I have 4 hooks on my door with most of my ribbon sorted by color.
Hi All,
I spent some time this weekend preparing projects for Cri-Kits CHA booth. Cri-Kits will be at the Craft Edge booth….
Here is a video on one of my projects…
