Paper (Card Stock) Sampler

This in one of my very favorite tools!  Make one for yourself.  Just click on the Getting Organized tab above and it will take you to a lot of resources I’ve created including labels you can print and stick on your card stock.

Welcome to my craft corner

You see, it really is just a corner.  I have to apologize for the narrow formatting on the video.  I filmed this 3 times.  The first one was in landscape and when I watched it on my laptop it displayed upside down.  I tried portrait.  It displayed right on my phone, but sideways on the laptop.  🙁  So the third time was sideways again on the laptop and I decided to try posting it on YouTube to see what happened.  Perhaps I should have tried that first upside down one.  I learned it’s very difficult to move around with the phone and talk at the same time.

 

Anyway, you can see where I work.  I am able to own a lot of products, though it looks a bit empty after culling out most of my retired products.  Even with my boxes and shelves full, I can find what I want.  I do recommend Evernote.  It’s a huge help when I want to browse through my stamp sets or search for one particular image or phrase.  I hope my Getting Started Challenge shows that you don’t need to own as much stuff as I do.  I spend way too much time sitting in my corner, but I enjoy my creative space. I hope it inspires you to get organized so you can enjoy paper crafting.

Labels for New Stamp Pads

Stampin’ Up! gives you 4 labels so you can apply the color names in your own language.  That gives us a wonderful opportunity to use those extra labels.  I use them 4 ways.  Can you find more?

Secret Garden Thoughts & Prayers 4-12-14

Secret Garden Thoughts & PrayersThis card was quick and easy.  I show how to use a 2-Way glue pen to make a mask, stamp and emboss, then sponge.

 

This card could be used for many different occasions.

 

Remember to allow the glue to dry fully before adhering to the card.  I gave it 20 minutes, but it really wasn’t enough.  You could also try painters’ tape or sticky notes for masking.  You might want to test before using.
