How to Create a Masculine Birthday Card

  Hello Crafty Friends, Today I am sharing this fun Masculine card created with the Textured Notes Designer papers.   I paired the paper with the now retiring World Map Stamp and the Elements of Text Stamp Set.  I stamped the World Map onto the Linen patterned paper with Early Espresso Ink.  Stamp the Elements of Text with Crumb Cake ink.  Add some stamped splatters with Cajun Craze.  Wet the corners of your paper with a water brush and tear and curl edges Crumple up you work.  Stamp ink onto your stamping block and spritz with water and ink your crumbled images.  Straighten out and adhere to background Designer paper and adhere to card base.

Craft Room Makeover - Part 2

 Here is where we were yesterday!  SO I placed an order for my additional 3- 6 cube storage units, tried out a few paint samples and narrowed it down to a pinkish color.  SO while I was waiting for my cube unit sto be available at pickup I went to Hobby Lobby for a little inspiration.  I found this cool colors floral painting I wanted to place above the door and these large florals for inspiration. The large circle painting alas did not fit and has been repurposed in the upstairs bath!  then off to the hardware store to pick out my paint.  And I found an even better shade of Paint called Ballet Slipper.   I now walk into the room and just smile!   It is sooooo bright!  Next step Storage.  I choose to white and even painted a wooden hutch unit white.  The storage unit at the end of my table is going to double as my die cut station!  And I found some frilly white curtains to not block the sun!  Next step purging an...

Craft Room Makeover

 SO I have been a crafter for a LONG time!  and have moved from every supply I owned fitting into a bag to a basement craft room to an closet craft room to a craft room once my oldest moved out.  Once she moved out permanently (she got married).. I didn't look back and just moved my supplies in without changing much- not the carpet (a mauve-y pink), not the wall color (a bold bright lime green), not the curtains .   And because I have been crafting for a long while I needed to purge!   So here are some of my before pictures.   OH yea did I mentioned it is a converted attic so I have slanted walls!   THE BEFORE  Want my area lacked was - LIGHT.. the room color sucked up the lighting, my desk storage blocked the window.  SPACE...even though I had 2 tables i felt like I was crafting in a 12x12 space!  STORAGE ... I know I Had too much goodness!  but also my impish puppy was constantly pulling out things from the bas...
