Remodel Craftroom

Happy Thursday. How is your week going so far? Can you believe it's the last week of April? My May calendar is already full so it's going to be a busy May. I mentioned that my husband and I are remodeling our house. We are replacing our carpets with bamboo floors so I thought I would share my craft room with you. 
Here is my craft room with all my crafting stuff removed.

I should have taken pictures with all my items in
 place before I packed everything up.
I will share when it's all done.  

My three cabinets and the other side of the closet.
During the packing period. Oh Dear!!  What a
mess!  The one thing I realized is I am a collector
of everything....Hoarder!! LOL
The bamboo floors and painting done. Yuppie!
Boy has this been a eye opener. I have way to much stuff!!  I am going to reorganize my room so I will selling some of my current  containers and paper holders etc. Have a wonderful weekend!

Melting Dots

Happy Monday. While attending my neighbor's crafting group last month the ladies had a show-n-tell. Dee shared this great idea for bling using melting dots.  
All the crafting stores sell these melting dots.
They come in large bags so you may want to
share a bag with your crafting buddies.
Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Put parchment
paper on a cookie sheet. Stand up and space the dots
on the parchment paper.


Close up of the dots. Sorry about the shadow.
Bake for 20 mins. Check after 10-15 mins since
all ovens are different. 


Let them cool completely and they are ready to use.
You can use a glue dot or glue to attach them.
Lots of colors for your crafting needs.
  
Before and after picture. 
Dee has a blog that you can check out: deedstercreateandenjoy.blogspot.com. Hope you have a good week!

For You

Happy Monday! How is everyone doing today?  My husband and I have been busy working on remodeling our house, which includes my craft room. I will share some pictures next week. As I was packing up my craft room I came across some embellishments I had made for a craft fair. I had put them on top of jarred candles. I thought it would make a quick and easy card.  

The "For You" is a SU stamp and I added  glitter,
 a flower and bling.

Thanks for stopping by and sharing your time with me. Enjoy your day!

Graduation

Happy Thursday! It's that time of the year for all the graduations. A few of us got together at Heather's house (my neighbor) and did some crafting. We had so much fun. Here is a card she designed for us to put together.
Heather used die cuts for the whole card. Sorry I
didn't get the makers of the die cuts.  

When I glued the red CS onto the black card, I
made a mess! You could see glue all over the black
CS. When I got home I sprayed the whole card with
a silver shimmer mist to hide the glue.  It worked
like a charm. 

Inside the card. 
Thanks for stopping by today. Happy Stamping!

With Sympathy

Happy Monday to you! Hope you had a wonderful weekend. I am sharing a sympathy card I made using a stamp set from Stampin' UP.  I think using water colors on this stamp image would look beautiful, I'll have to try that next time. 
I used an embossing folder for the white CS and
scrap pattern paper for the top half. 



You all have a super great week!
