Craft room redo file holders

My dear friend Lynn gave me these 2 metal file holder wall units.   All they needed was a little soap and water and a new coat of glossy paint and VOILA!   Ken painted them for me and we hung them in the little odd corner of my craft room that is too small and odd shaped to put any furniture.  They hold extra packages of paper of which I have an abundance.  I also found out that a small suction cups sticks well to the metal so I can hang a few cute baskets/boxes from the Dollar section of Target for additional storage.

Another Christmas Card - MFTWSC197

It is time for the weekly sketch again over at My Favorite Things.  Felt a bit awkward having the designer paper at an odd angle but tried to follow the sketch.  Have a great week.  I will be posting another post shortly of a redo hanging files for my craft room so be sure to check it out.

Fabric Background Card - MFTWSC196

I cannot believe it is already October.  Where has the year gone.  I have actually been able to keep this blog up with at least 1 post a week AND I have been able to do each weekly sketch over at My Favorite Things.  Here is the card I made for this week.  The background is fabric .  I added a white paper flower that I colored with ink and a crocheted flower I had in my stash.  Have a great week.

Just a quick card for the weekly sketch at My Favorite Things.  Wanted to make some cat cards and this is one of the 2 I made tonight.  I may end up coloring the cat since he looks so plain.

Fabric covered Journal CC3C challenge #11

The challenge for this next 2 weeks for the CC3C - Compendium of Curiosities #3 Challenge 11  is Effect Powders from Tim Holtz.  I needed a journal for an upcoming project and decided to cover this journal with Tim's fabric and added the burlap trim to cover up the raw edge.  I die cut from grungepaper the mannequin from the sewing room die and used Old Paper distress powder then used some Tea Dye and Fired Brick distress inks.  The metal flower embellishment fit perfectly at the waistline of the mannequin.  The generous sponsor for this challenge ( $50 gift certificate)  is Inspiration Emporium - why not check them out right now?   I am so pleased with how my journal turned out and can't wait to show it off.

Let's Hula

Here is the card I made for the weekly sketch over at the MFT Blog - MFTWSC192.  I had an extra Hula Girl all cut out and colored with Copics from a stash I made last weekend for a friend at work who love Hawaii themed cards.  Every few months she buys a stack from me and I always make a few extra to keep on hand.
