Birthday Card For Mom

Birthday Card For Mom

I made a Birthday Card for my mother with the Anna Griffin Mix and Match embossing folder. The rose, butterfly and ribbon are from another Anna Griffin card kit. I used a gold leafing pen to bring out the embossed Laurel Emblem. I really enjoy the Anna Griffin mix and match folders. Painting the raised portion of the embossing is very relaxing.  I like the look of it.

Repurposed Entertainment Center

I turned my entertainment center into craft storage.
I found cube storage that would fit in the opening.
I happened to have 2 of the pieces. I just needed to find the vertical shelves.
Then I started to organize my craft supplies into the unit.
I am really impressed how easily you can repurpose old furniture.




Happy Crafting!!

Ikea Raskog Cart Storage

I finished decking out my Ikea Raskog Cart.  I added some Mainstay baskets from Walmart.
I also added mesh drawer organizers for Ribbon, Washi Tape and wood stamps.
The baskets are removable and can be changed out according to what your working on.
I got the baskets in the front and on the sides at Walmart. The baskets were over by the kitchen supplies at the Walmart here. I had to put the hooks in the baskets and foam behind the basket so it sat up straighter.

I took the white part off these hooks.
I used them to hang the baskets for the washi tape and ribbon

 
 
This is the label for the baskets I used on the side of my cart.
 

Happy Crafting!!
