Another busy week has just flown by at a phenomenally fast pace! I have been busy around the house and teaching my classes and creating fun projects.
Here is a picture of my desk this week. What a mess! I think I keep it a mess cause it motivates me to use the stuff scattered about. Well maybe not this messy cause I am going to have to clean it up a bit to have my 12 square inches to craft in!! See the whiskey container in the background? I am going to make another storage container with it like the one in this post . I love reusing and re purposing so stay tuned I will find a good use for that white tub too!
Thought I would share pictures of some recipe cards I made/taught in a class this week. The papers are mostly from an Australian company called Ruby Rock It called Cook and an Oklahoma based company called Farm Fresh. I love the feel of these papers. I don't have recipes on them yet you will have to use your imagination!
I like making pockets on the page so I can stick larger recipes in them that don't fit the 5 1/2"x 7" page.
Okay that is it for me today. Hope you have had a great week and I look forward to making it around to some of the blogs in the morning. If you are wondering what this is all about go check out Julia' s blog Stamping Ground and she will tell you how to play!
Update! Sorry there weren't any pictures earlier but I posted from my phone and I seem to be challenged when it comes to adding pictures on the iPhone!
Your photos are AWOL! What has Blogger been up to I wonder? #34

I too upcycle whisky tubes (love your Graphic 45 one) and I agree with your sentiment about having bits of stash around you for inspiration (that's my excuse for crafting in chaos!).

ReplyDeleteGreat cards and a grey change you made to the whisky carton last time so looking forward to seeing this one remodelled.
ReplyDeleteI did one quite a while back - cut it into three and joined them together to make a holder for various things on my desk.
Have fun - Hugs, Neet xx 5
