Stampin' Up! Acetate Card Box Gift

Happy Birthday with Brilliant Wings Butterflies

I find this "happy birthday" card so calming.  I think it's the subtle color combination of Sahara Sand, Soft Sea Foam and Flirty Flamingo.  The butterflies were cut out using Brilliant Wings Dies.  The background leaves from the Daisy Lane Stamp Set were stamped in Soft Sea Foam Ink

• The "happy birthday" sentiment is from the Timeless Tulips Stamp Set

Happy Birthday Blues: Artistically Inked

I made this card for a friend's birthday.  I keep seeing these flowers from the Artistically Inked Stamp Set done in pinks, so I wanted to try the card in blues.  Love the way it turned out. The flowers and the "Happy Birthday" sentiment are all from the Artistically Inked Stamp Set.

Organize It Friday: Essentials

These 3 shelves pictured are probably my most used shelves in my craft room. This cabinet sits under my craft room desk on the right for easy access.  

The first shelf holds my Stampin' Up! Clear Blocks.  I like to keep all my clear blocks in one container.  When I am stamping and creating I can just take out that container and pick out the blocks I need.  I purchased this acrylic container at Home Goods.

The second shelf holds a basket with White Cardstock scraps.. only white scraps.  I keep my other cardstock scraps with the cardstock colors..  I previously posted how I organize my cardstock (Click to see original post on Organizing Cardstock).  Out of all my paper scraps, white is the most used.  Scraps come in handy when you need to stamp a little butterfly or flower, or need a small strip of paper for a  greeting, etc.

Lastly, the last shelf holds my copy paper scraps.  These scraps are great for trying out a card, creating boxes or making a fold project.. it's better to try out your ideas using scraps and not waste your good cardstock.

I hope these ideas inspire you to be more organized.
