Papercraft Haven and More

I recently signed up to be a Stampin' Up consultant, more for the discount than anything, however - I really REALLY love their products!  Stampin' Up was the first company that started their own paper line that matches their ink pads and markers!  I love that fact!  I have been shopping with Stampin' Up for THAT long!  If you need any supplies, you can go right to my shop, and get what you need - mailed right to you!  Make sure you get added to my mailing list, I am starting a feature for my customers soon - a wish list and emails to your favorite people for idea's for you on special days!     This month - we are going to work on cards!  I will share with you some of my favorite techniques...and challenge you to start to create your own cards!!!  Stampin' Up has some really fun sets that include everything you need to make your own cards, simply add your adhesive and for the most part, you are done !!!  I will have a class coming ...

Creative Paperclay can be such a fun product to use, especially if you have paper crafting products - and an imagination!  I have made magnets with Creative Paperclay, stamps, and paint!  I have used my alphabet templates to create personalized front covers for my paper bag albums!  I have used it to make a box to put my crafting stuff in as well as my bathroom stuff!  I have used it to make flowers out of molds - and a fun Halloween set!  I really love how you can use this in so many different ways - just add a bit of imagination and fun!  Check out the Creative Paperclay design team blog for a great tip re-purposing and recycling things with Creative Paperclay!

From the time I was a little girl, I have always loved to read, I got that from my parents!  I remember being little, I would walk up and around the corner from my house with my best friends growing up to the library!  I would go home with an arm full of books to read for the week, then back up to the library again the next week for more!  All summer long!!  I then graduated to "chapter books", my first one's that I read - Little House on the Prairie - the best chapter books to start with!!!  I still love to read - and love to make one of a kind bookmarks to keep my place in those books I am reading! I have two styles of bookmarks I love to do - tall and corner style!  The tall ones are about 2" wide by 6" tall, sometimes a bit larger or longer, depending on the piece!  The corner bookmarks are 2" squared - cutting one of the squares corner to corner makes 2 pieces to put on the squared pieces!         If you make them yours...

When I first planned these posts, I never thought I would really keep up with them - but honestly...they really DO help me a lot!  It helps me see the whole picture from right now, to the end of the year really!  I get more done - now to get things in the mail the right way!!!  LOL but that is the worse part for me!  I am planning to do planner pages for my planner - customized to ME, I am sure I will share with you what I end up doing!  Just bought some paper clips I am sure that will find it's way into my scrapbooking somehow!   Now on to the challenge - grab your favorite items to organize yourself with - your computer, tablet, laptop, pen/pencil, paper, calendar - and lets get started!!!   Take a look at your calendar for the next 6 weeks, until the middle of August for anything that you need to plan out, make cards or gifts for, schedule on your calendar, make phone calls for or what have you! Take a look at the next 3 months - until the e...

Everyone in life has their own book of "rules" - those things in life you just simply do because they are right, or because you were taught that way!  I see n the above qu ote on Facebook (of course), and like usual - a new project came in to play....  Those Lynda's Book of Life Rules!!! With this project -you will want to get some paper to make some notes with!  The album will be more journaling and some pictures - more of a way to document and keep documenting!  Rules end up changing - or adding on to ...  Things you put up with when you are in your 20's - I  will almost tell you, you won't when you are a bit older!  Those little life rules that are YOURS!   6 x 6 mini album for sale For my project - I am thinking I will do a 6 x 6 al bum (like this one I have for sale), with this graphic for the cover!  Something with a bit of hidden aspects and tags for sure!  For me - I want something in my own handwriting ... ...

How many projects do YOU have right now - that needs to get done?  This is one of many I have right now, a folio album (my first) !!!  My problem is - when I start something, I get halfway through before I end up starting something else - and then something else halfway through that - and then halfway through that, I might start something else!  Th at is f or my OWN projects - yet if I am making something for someone else, or to sell, I can whip them right up!  This is what I am working on right now :  My Grandmothers Recipe's album - a digital album with scans of her recipe cards, made with Shutterfly so others can purchase one themselves!  Since it is started already, once I get rolling it shouldn't be too long to finish it up!  Christmas paper bag album - just in time for Christmas in July (wink wink)!  This one I might be able to handle, along with some fun Christmas cards too!   The album pictured above - my first ever F...
