Happy Veteran's Day!

I just want to send a "Thank You" to all of our military personnel, present, past and future for ensuring me the freedoms I have in the USA.
Remember to thank a Veteran.

The trio of Tim Holtz Distress products

Are you surprised? Here I am back so soon.

I finished the Distress Stain tower so I am going to post a picture of all three towers I have completed.  I think the next storage I will be working on is for Adirondack Paint Daubers. I have several of these and they are hidden away in a box. I also need to make something for the Distress Crackle paints. So little time, so much stuff.

This is the Distress Stain storage.

This is all three of the storage towers I have completed. The paper I used is TH "Lost and Found".

I hope everyone has a great weekend!
See ya soon.
Hugs,

It's what day??? Can't be Oct. 30 already......

Wow!  I have really gotten behind in my blog. I am really going to make the effort to keep it up. The store is going pretty well and I have been busy teaching classes and making items.  Two of the items I have made have been a storage tower for my Distress Ink Pads and a storage tower for the Distress Ink Refills.  I saw the tower for the pads on a Ustream series by Scrap n Share. This is the link to the Ustream channel http://www.ustream.tv/channel/scrap-n-share . 

 After completing this I decided I needed something for the refills so I didn't have to pick up and look at every bottle when I needed one. So this is what I made.  Both of these are covered with Tim Holtz "Lost and Found" papers.

Now I need to make something to hold my Distress Stains.

I have been trying to organize the store and have it look a little neater.  Maybe when Halloween is over and I can take some of that stuff home it will help along with creating some storage for item that need to be at the store.

Well I think this is all for the night, I think I am getting the cold that has been going around.

What happened to June???

I didn't realize it has been over a month since I last posted.  I have been staying pretty busy with classes at Behind the Turquoise Door, I am teaching Copic marker, card making and technique classes.  I am teaching at least two separate classes each week, so it takes some prep time.

I am working on a new Halloween album using Graphic 45 Happy Hauntings paper. Love, love, love this paper!!! I will post pictures when I get the album finished.  I also am working on some A2 cards for the Carlsbad Downtown Farmer's Market, I got juried in so I will begin having a booth there on Sat. mornings from 8-11 am.  When I get those finished I will post some pictures.

I hope everyone has a great rest of the week and an even greater weekend.
Hugs,
