Somebody Stop Me!


I've now gotten hooked on those ATC's. I have so much else to do, and I'm thinking of my next ATC design.
I did one for a challenge, and was told that they could be very addictive. I can see that, now.
These pictures don't do the cards justice--they're much clearer, and more colorful in-person. But--it's the best I could do with pics. My scanner is making shadows for some reason, but that's another story.

I need to finish getting my photos in order, and file all the patterned paper I just bought on sale at Michael's. I have that 3-Day crop next weekend at Timeless Inspirations, and I need all the "ammunition" I can get!
We're going to be broken into two teams, and I want everything in "apple pie order", and ready to go before Friday.
I get soooo much done at those crops! It's amazing. And, we have so much fun! It really gets me pumped, and gives me the motivation I need! LOL :-)



I hope you enjoyed the ATC's. I'll see you online!

Storage!

I have some new storage for my scrappin' stuff. The two problems were all the scissors, and ink pads. How do you accomodate them, and keep them handy at the same time? You custom-make what you need, if necessary!
We cut a piece of plywood to size, painted it sunny yellow, and--Voila! Hang it, attach some hooks, and you're all set. (I would have chosen a pegboard, but hey--we already had the wood.
Then, I took a wooden box that had been sitting around for years--pounded some small nails for shelf brackets, cut up some balsa wood--and, Voila!, again! Instant ink pad shelves. Easy.
















If you don't want your shelves to move, you can just dab a dot of glue where the nail meets the wooden shelf.
Also pictured, you can see my Xyron machines I got as gifts. I am so happy. They make things so much easier!
Coming to this station is a new ATC. It's being worked on, and will appear hopefully sooner, rather than later. I think that it's going to come out great.
You can sign up at Timeless Inspirations.com, and you'll be in time for the Family Feud Crop. It's 3 days--March 17-19th. It's going to be a blast! That's where I'll be.
Y'all come back, now!
