Craft Room Inspiration

A friend used to have this hanging in her craft room and it went across most of the wall...  So beautiful and inspiring.  Looking at this every day would get me inspired in my craft room!

Stampin' Up! Envelope Punch Board Basket

I was playing around with my Stampin' Up! Envelope Punch Board and made this adorable basket.  I got the idea from a very talented demonstrator from the UK...  Pootles.  She has some amazing ideas on her blog.

Scalloped Envelope Treat Bag

I was playing around with old DSP paper today and created this cool Scalloped Envelope.  It's great for holding little treats...  I had a Hershey Bar laying around so I stuck it in there for the picture.



Measurements:  7 1/2 x 5 and score at 3 1/2 and 7



  

Throwback Thursday: Roses In Winter Gift Pouch

This Throwback Thursday sample was from a demonstrator swap.  I think they used a template for this gift pouch.  I used to love this old stamp set...  Roses in Winter.  I was refreshing my displays and this inspired me to create a new gift pouch with current DSP and embellishments.

Stampin' Up! Sympathy Cards

It's unfortunate, but some times we need sympathy cards.  I think any pretty set will work for sympathy as long as you keep it simple.  I just got this swirl set, Stampin' Up! Flowering Flourishes and I think I can do a lot with this one!

Technique Tuesday: Clouds

Clouds, is that really a technique?  I think it is... it's definitely a nice background and such a simple technique.  But it does liven up the background on the sample below.  Love it.



Confirmation Favors: Coaster Calendars

Made these magnetic coaster calendars for a friend for her son's confirmation.  I actually made them last year, but I don't think I ever posted them.  They look great in the cello bags with the bow.  This DSP makes them masculine and appropriate for a boys confirmation.
