Here's an elegant card I made using the the new Apothecary Art stamp set from the Occasions Mini Catalog. I can't tell you how much I LOVE the new Framelits. They are sooooo easy to use.
The new Blossom Punch is a perfect background for the Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer Punch in the middle. Where did this Designer Paper, ribbon and matching Brads come from??? The upcoming Sale-A-Bration mini catalog – that's where!!! The Everyday Enchantment paper is just gorgeous…and the matching brads are adorable – they come in a bundle with two rolls of ribbon. Sale-A-Bration starts on Tuesday!!! These items are FREE with a $50 order…can't wait to share them with you!!!
You can see the Adorning Accent Embossing really good here. We have the dies and the matching embossing folders. I love them!!!
Cut the edge and then emboss it – what would be better???
MY HAPPY PLACE
Here's an update on what's been happening in my new stamping room….I'm calling it my HAPPY PLACE…because I can't wait to get out of my frigid dungeon! It just so happens that I have a "under construction" bathroom right next to my HAPPY PLACE. This really came in handy when I was cutting all the wood trim. So glad I didn't have to run back and forth to the garage in this weather. Here's my work station….that's my compound miter saw….my VERY good friend!!!
And my new filing cabinets…I picked these up at WalMart. I wanted white filing cabinets to store my cardstock in…soooo….I sanded them and spray painted them white.
This is not the finished product…but I do have to tell you that painting black cabinets white takes quite a bit of spray paint! I also have to tell you what NOT TO DO! DO NOT let your husband talk you into just using his left over spray paint in the garage for the final touch ups, instead of going and buying one more can! URGH! It is definately different on the finished product.
I'm just finishing up recessing my nails here.
I have to tell you that my room is pretty much done! I have a couple little things to finalize…like the gap in the floor by the closet opening…urghhhh. I'll figure something out! Anyways – that's my problem – not yours. I am now in the process of building a cabinet for the 55" long piece of countertop I ordered. Here's the start of my cabinet – LOL! All I know is it needs to be 55" long! What you're looking at is the base – so it's upside down right now. And I'm building the cabinet from the shelving that's leaning against the wall. The staircase spindles you see there will be part of it too!!! I have some big plans for this baby. It's gonna be my Big Shot center!!! Can't wait to show you what I come up with – off the seat of my pants!
Thanks for stopping by…
Can’t wait to see your finished room. It will be inspiration for me to get something done with mine..but of course my room is alot smaller and won’t kick aass like yours..but it will still be a craft room.
Love the room so far Kelly! You should know better than to let the hubby talk you into using spray paint that probably froze while it was out in the garage. But I have done the same thing and then am frustrated that I listened in the first place.
Again I say you are an amazing lady….you are unbelievably talented in so many areas…. Cannot wait to see your new Happy Place! Your cards are wonderful and thanks for the tips!
