Melancholy March

Over on Scraps of Color we were challenged to scrap OURSELVES!!!! Here is my Mirror Mirror challenge for March:

I used my April 2010 Treasure Box kit for my materials.

Check Out My Latest Project in Toletown's CyberPalette

Hello Bloggers! I posted earlier that I was so happy to be doing projects for Scraps Of Color E:spire and Toletown's CyberPalette. Well, my Santa Baby ATC card was one of the features in the new Toletown CyberPalette issue! It's now a monthly ezine ... so if you have some extra funds and want to see lots of wonderful decorative art painting projects - subscribe and paint to your hearts content! With the demise of so many decorative art magazines, this is a nice way to keep up with your favorite designers too.

...and don't forget to subscribe to E:spire - it's FREE!! I can not WAIT for you to see the project I have for you guys in February - it's a big one !!!

Happy Holidays!

Inexpensive 12x12 Paper Storage

... okay...I'm CHEAP. But I just don't have the money to spend on the fancy schmancy incredible storage options I see in all the stores and on the online blogs and such. I don't have a handy man to build me the most FANTABULOUS wooden storage unit, nor do I have the time or the patience ... or the skills to build anything myself. I mean - I'm a do-it-yourself kinda girl ... but I'm not a miracle worker!! When Danah on Scraps Of Color issued this blog challenge - I knew I had to share.


So, when I saw this storage idea last year on one of the blogs (I'm sooo sorry I didn't write down where I originally saw this), I knew this was right up my alley.

Plus, it makes me feel good to recycle all those boxes that keep coming with all my scrap stuff ... and I get rid of all my scraps too!!LOL So, to the original crafter that came up with this idea, THANK YOU!!. I'm just so sorry I didn't remember where I scrap-lifted this from.

6x6 Scrapbook Gratitude Journal

I took advantage of this past holiday weekend to try something different, so far as sharing my scrapbooking - I made videos! I know to some that might not mean much, but for me, it is.

I worked on a Gratitude journal, a challenge on the Scraps of Color Ning site. We're doing this for the month of June.

Check out what I did!!
