Over the last few months, I have been sharing a bunch of Totally Tiffany organizing products. I answered a Design Team call because Tiffany was forming a blogging troop and was delighted when she selected me. I had never tried any of her products before, but my sister has been raving about the Scrap Rack and the carts.… Read More »
The entire Paper Craft Crew Design Team has been having a busy summer. Someone suggested that we CASE a fellow team members card for this week’s challenge. This sounded like fun and it gave me an excuse to sit for a while and browse my teamies blogs. What a talented group of people! I decided to CASE (Copy… Read More »

When asked what my greatest organizing challenge is whether it is household organizing or craft room organizing, my answer is always the same. PAPER! My nemesis! By nature I pile things when I get busy or don’t feel like dealing with something and that something is almost always paper. (Although clean laundry would be a close second.) I’ve… Read More »
I have a product review for you today using the Totally Tiffany XL Pen and Ink Palace. I made the video almost a month ago and I have had this on my craft table and I absolutely love it. I have all of my Altenew Alcohol Artist Markers, my marker paper pads, my Memento ink pad, my… Read More »
This card today is super quick and it uses a stencil to create an ink blending background for a fabulous sentiment from Pink Fresh Studios Word Series Believe Stamp Set. I used an old favorite Catherine Pooler stencil called Perfect Vines and the Real Red, Sauna, and Blue Suede Shoes CP inks with my Picket Fence blender brushes… Read More »
I’ve had Altenew’s Rose Flurries 3D Die set on my wish list for almost two years! I finally splurged when I saw they created a creativity kit and it was part of the bundle. Altenew bundles products into Creativity Kits that they release weekly with a set of instructional videos that you can purchase to get your creative… Read More »
When I said I was doing a 30 Day Craft Room Clean Up, I hope you realize that I am not doing 30 consecutive days. Mostly because it is the end of the school year and it has been very hectic. I don’t really have a good excuse! Once you start cleaning up and working on fine-tuning your… Read More »
Just a quick post today to share my design team card for the Paper Craft Crew challenge. This is a 2 week challenge and it is a tic-tac-toe challenge. I worked an extra 5 hours today grading state exams for my students, so I need a quick and easy clean and simple card. I chose to select my… Read More »
I was excited to see this week’s Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge because I have the perfect cover die from Altenew for this sketch. I also found a box of happiness from Catherine Pooler’s latest release on my doorstep when I drove into my driveway. WIN-WIN! The background paper is a fun 6 x 6″ paper stack that I… Read More »
What a fantastic sentiment for a card! Who wouldn’t feel good when they opened that envelope and saw those words? One of the first stamp sets that I purchased from Catherine Pooler was on of her early Stamp of Approval sets called Count Your Blessings. The stamp and die set here is called Bloomin’ Bouquet. This is a… Read More »
Another fabulous card kit with some new products that I had not planned to try showed up on my doorstep. What’s a person to do? I had to play with the kit and the new Tim Holtz Alcohol Pearl Inks. I had not planned on purchasing them because I already have a hearty collection of alcohol inks and… Read More »
Pick a spot to start and just start! Is there a better way than to pick what you feel like doing for the day and just getting it done? When I assessed my room yesterday, I realized that I had started to reorganize a set of shelves that I have in the craft room way back at the… Read More »
How does a craft room devolve into chaos so quickly? My work desk I understand. I’m creating and it’s a messy process. I experiment a lot and use a lot of products every single time I sit down to create. As long as I put it all away when I’m done or clean it up before I start… Read More »
I have had a crazy busy spring. I bet you can relate. It has been one thing after another and my craft kits have been sitting for two months. That’s right! Two months!!
