Berry Blossoms~Fruit and Flowers

The other day I got a call from someone I did not know and she really wanted to learn how to make cards! She said her family decided she needed a hobby. She came over and we really had a lot of fun. This is what we created.


 I showed her how to make an A-2 Sized Card and use many layers. I told her I like lots of layers of sheets on my bed for different patterns and that is what I like to do on cards. We took it simple and I showed her step by step.

We used 2 layers of Card Stock- two of the New In Colors- Lucky Limeade and Wisteria Wonder.  For Patterned paper we use one of my Favorites- Berry Blossoms. Stamp set is Fruit and Flowers which goes great with this.
Markers were used to stamp the cute little strawberry. Wisteria Wonder Ruffled Ribbon makes a wonderful embellishment.

By the way, our Patterned Paper during the month of August is purchase 3 packs and get 1 FREE!  Click Here to order!


Thank you for stopping by. I always appreciate your comments.

My Revised Stampin' Up Craftroom! Video too!

Boy have I been busy this past week! A week ago I decided to move my inks off of the foam core holder my husband made and into another storage unit, I had. Well that made me decide to totally redo the room and it has taken a week! I used to have a huge desk/art table on this wall. It was the kids art desk and was this long and about 5' deep. I decided I wanted a simpler look so I moved my cubes over here. I set up a little display that makes me happy! At the end, I posted a Video!


The display sits where the art table used to, on the one full sized wall. You see my craftroom is my Dining Room and you enter it from the left of these shelves through French Glass doors from the Living Room. It is flanked on both side by these tall shelves which I really want to take down!


Center Display where I can display the paper pack and cards we are working on for my classes. My classes are taught in the kitchen. This wall has the kid's art work from pre-school!


Other Shelf, Ottoman with Stampin' Up magazines and catalog for guests to look at. The Mini Catalogs are on those clips on the board on the right. "Gifts" are on the shelves for my blog drawings for people who order on my Online Site.


My very messy desk! I love the baskets on it though. It is a "ladder desk" See my blog on my computer!

Other side of desk, this goes into the kitchen


My work area or Stampin' Station.  This is where I work, well play because I love my job!


The full view. I know it looks crowded but right now it is neat, just for you! 
To the left is my little "mailing area". I run long distance hostess clubs and I have to mail their packages out to them each month. 



Wall with older style punches. Other punches are in drawers on on that shelf


Lots of storage under my desk. This is always neat. It is the top of my desk that is always a disaster! Even from making one little card!


Storage for my Clear Mount Stamp Cases. I found all the racks at a Scrapbook Garage Sale!


My "Big Shot Station" I used the Foam Core holder that my husband made and use it for my Big Shot dies. The basket has more. The container to the right has my Envelopes and Whisper White and Confetti and Natural Papers


My center island work station. This is for my little girl. I used the cubes I had and then added the desk tops. It makes a great area for my Big Shot and for one on one classes or just to have a friend over. My Classes are held in the kitchen.


My side, which I can swivel around from my work desk has my Stampin' Up Cardstock and Patterned Paper Stacks. Drawers have Stampin' Up Embellishements and tools




Overall view from the kitchen. French doors are to the left and bay window to the right. Oh it looks so ugly and busy from this view but it was worse with that big desk in there!


Ok, now I still have this huge mess in my Living Room and no where to put it! It was all in my kitchen this past week too! I wasn't going to let myself come out and craft until it was all put away, but this is going to take me forever. I see a "Craft Garage Sale" in the future when it cools down here.


Thanks for stopping by. I hope you enjoyed. Most of the storage areas are several years old and I am not sure they can be found again.
