I was reading an article tonight and decided I had to share it. We all like to find things that are junk and turn them into something wonderful, When the article talked about other uses for butcher Block knife holders, I just had to share!
You can read the rest of the article here.
Sometimes there is photo that you just can’t reduce to a 4″ x 6″ photo without losing the details or that special look. Here is a great layout that puts the focus right where it goes, on your photo. Using the contrasting colors to bring out the color in your photo will help it pop.
The blues and browns have been a popular color combination for quite a few years. Looking at the color pallets for spring, I don’t see this changing anytime soon.
What is your favorite color pallet these days? Leave a comment below and let see how everyone else thinks.
Make your life faster, simpler, and easier with Close To My Heart’s rolling tote. Simply pack it and go to any crafting event, knowing that all the right tools and tricks are stored safely inside. These totes are so much nicer than the ones we use to have, and such pretty colors too! Done in Lagoon and Slate and has a matching bag. The new tote will hold 1 large , 1 medium and 3 small organizers or any combination there of. The side pockets hold things like your paper trimmer, score board and other tall items, and the front holds 12 x 12 paper holders. Just perfect for taking your supplies with you to a crop, or just to keep organized at home. Well, enough from me, listen to the video and Monica and Brian will also show how the tote folds up flat for easy storage too.
Leave me a comment and let me know what you like best about the new tote.
My mind goes straight to the song by Shania Twain
when I hear those words. This month’s Stamp of the Month is called “This Moment” and really fits with the song.
Between the banner that says “Remember this Moment” to the bulls eye this stamp set can be used year around. It is also perfect for those Valentine Cards you are thinking about making. Use the arrow, the heart and the masking technique you can pin the heart to the target.
While it is hard to see in this image the target and heart are specifically noted to work with the Cricut Collection Artbooking Cartridge, I am sure you can find the banners in our cartridges somewhere.
With a minimum qualifying purchase, get your D-size Stamp of the Month set for $5! Add the stamp set to your cart on this page at full retail price or, with your qualifying order, add it at checkout for the promotional price.
Leave a comment below and tell me what you think of this stamp set. I think it is much more versitile than past January Stamps of the Month that you can use it on so many other pages. What kind of page would YOU use it on? Leave a comment and let me know!
When I was looking us history for National Thank you Month, I found a dozen or so different “causes” shall we say for the Month of January. While I have not found any history on National Thank You Month, I will embrace this one. We all need to say thank you a little more and murmur a bit less. National Thank You Month was probably set in January because people are still able to bask in the warmth of the holiday good will. Set in August or September people might have been a bit more jaded.
Since New Years Day fell on Throwback Thursday where I usually post the weekly card sketch, I thought I would post one today. Perhap you will make it a Thank you card to send for National Thank You Month. I plan to send a card a day this month. If you are on my mailing list and I have your snail mail address, you might be a lucky receiver of one! Here is a link to go sign up now. You can also send an e-mail and give me your snail mail address. Business’ you are included here, after all, wouldn’t your business grow if you sent more thank you notes too?
Here is your sketch: Come back later today and see what I have done with the sketch.
Creatively,
Carol
