Think about it Thursday

Doing some spring cleaning
including my craft room
wondering what is your best tip
for keeping your pattern paper scraps
under control?
Right now mine are all in a big bin
not sorted at all :(
looking for some inspiration to get them
under control....

Happy Easter Cardz TV Gallery

Hi Everyone
my privilege to post today at
I can't believe that
Easter Sunday is just a few days away
and we had snow here on
Monday morning wish I could see some signs
of spring.... so nothing to due but
make myself some cute Easter
treat boxes
 
 
Started with this cute little print and cut file from the
Silhouette store
Design ID #56920
I size this to 3" and  the
little Happy Easter
from CARDZ TV STAMPS
"Happy Days"
fits perfectly on the egg!
I stamped this with versa fine
and embossed with clear embossing powder
 
 
 
Now I have this little time saving thing I do
I have a little block from StudioG
that I have this To & From on
I keep in in my drawer so
when ever I need it I don't have to try to
remember what stamp set it is on just
grab and go
But you can find it on
this is the perfect font
 
 
For I remember it is Easter morn,
And life and love and peace are all new born.

I am amazed this was your first time

Think about it Thursday

Have you ever taken an on-line class
and if you have did you feel that it
was a good value and you learned some new things?
