Fun & Flirty Flip Flops

What says summer more than a new pair of flip flops? Today’s card uses our fun bold Designer Series Paper, Festive Birthday to create these fun cactus flip flops.

Seaside Shore Flip Flops (1)

I’ve had several of you ask me how I created these when you saw my shoe box card HERE.

So I thought I’ve put together a video tutorial on how they are made. And I included some tips to make things easier.

Want the pattern? Well I’ve made one up just for you!

What’s Happening Here?

On a personal note I thought I’d share with you what is happening with all this wood my son, Johnathan and I  brought home on June 20th. (Click HERE to see that post).

June 20 2016 wood for classroom

I’m excited to say my guys are making great progress on the project… my classroom!

June 2016 Classroom storage (4)

Johnathan is always happy playing with his “toys” in the garage. (He built his garage cabinetry that you see in the background over his winter break.)

June 2016 Classroom storage (1)

Over the weekend they finished the 12 x 12 paper storage unit.

June 2016 Classroom storage (2)

and the base cabinet too! Wow that was fast!!!

June 2016 Classroom storage (3)

I can’t tell you how excited I am to get painting! And you know how I dislike painting. LOL!!!

Right now, I’m trying to decide a new paint color for the classroom walls. After all, with this great cabinetry going in I need a new coat of paint, right?

I’ve got it narrowed down to two choices at this point.

classroom paint swatches

A more bold one and a safe one. I’m trying to decide how crazy I want to be LOL!!! Pool Party or Sahara Sand ???? Hmmm…. what do you think? I’ve changed my mind so many times already, but these are the two I keep coming back to since I love the Island Indigo display item I already have.

What color would you choose?

Stamp Set: Seaside Shore (141622/141625)

Inks: Melon Mambo (115320), Crumb Cake (126975), and Soft Suede Classic Ink (126978)

Framelits & Thinlits Organization 101

I love keeping my Framelit dies in easy to open clear mount cases and so I thought I’d share with you the new labels I created for the NEW 2016 Annual Catalog.

Framelits Case Inserts (3)

It’s always fun to freshen up my crafting space and these new inserts are colorful in addition to having the picture on the front so you know exactly where that framelit came from! (Something my old Framelit inserts didn’t have.)

Here is what the case looks like on the inside.

Inside Framelits case insert

What’s that black sheet? Well believe it or not it is a Magnetic Vent Cover that I find in my local Building Supply big box store. They are inexpensive and work great for this.

Magnetic sheets (1)

I simply cut them with my trimmer and add a little of our Tear & Tape to the back and press. (They come in large 8 x 15 sheets so you can get several cases for your Framelits out of a package when you cut them to fit.) Perfect for holding those Framelits!

Want to get organized too? Well you’re in luck because today I’m sharing files for all the Framelits in the 2016 Annual Catalog that will fit into our Clear Mount cases (119105).

Check out this quick video I made showing you how to use the PDFs and cut them down.

Want to start? Order your Clear Mount Cases HERE. They come in groups of 4 and are perfect for organization of our Framelits in addition to other things too.

Then just print out the following files on Whisper White Card stock (100730) and your ready to go!

New 2016 Annual Catalog Organization 101

Ok you’ve seen the NEW 2016-2017 Catalog now and you’re wondering how to organize your craft area, right? Well I’ve got some wonderful items to help make this easier for you.

First I’ve created a quick reference for the Designer Series Paper. I like this chart and keep it handy when I’m looking for the colors in the Designer Series Paper. Everything you need is on this one easy chart.

2016-2017 Catalog Designer Series Paper Chart PDF

Labels – I love labels and these make things so easy. I like to have everything consistent so with the NEW 2016-2017 Catalog. I have created new labels for my hanging file folders, Refill drawers, and my Classic Ink Pads.

I know that the Classic Ink Pads  come with these great labels stuck to the bottom for us to use (which I love),  but I like to also know the Color Collection so I still these in addition to the ones already included.

Labels for Stamp Pads and Refill drawers (Avery Labels 5160)

I punch these out with my now retired Word Window Punch, but if you don’t have that you can use the NEW Classic Label Punch (141491) found in the 2016 Annual Catalog on page 186.

And for your Card Stock I’ve created these labels. I use them on my hanging file folders in my drawers.

2016-2017 Annual Catalog File Drawer Labels (Avery Labels 5167)

Here is a quick video I did a while ago  showing you how my craft room is organized.

I’m currently working on revamping the Clear Mount Case Inserts for my Framelits and hope to share them with you in the next couple of days. So stop on back by and check them out. I think you’ll like them!

Organizing Tips for the 2015 Annual Catalog & New Events

It’s that time of year again. I love when the new catalog arrives since it gives me a reason to reorganize my crafting space. After all what feels better than a stamping space that makes things easy for you to create?

So here are some tools for you to use….. First my Designer Series Paper Chart – this chart keeps everything in one place for you so you can refer easily to what colors are needed or what colors you already have on hand. I like to post this where I can see it. I know that Stampin’ Up! has printed the names on the packages of Designer Series Paper, but that would mean I have to pull each one to look.

2015 – 2016 Annual Catalog Designer Series Paper Chart (printable PDF)

(I’ve actually started printing 2 of these – one I have where I can refer to it easily and the second I cut and attach to the outside of each folder I keep my Designer Series Paper in.)

Want labels? How about a printable Avery labels 5167 for your card stock? I use these for my hanging file folders.

2015 File Folder Labels (printable PDF)

New In Color and ink pads need labels too, and while I love the labels Stampin’ Up! provides, I like a little extra something to help things easily go back where they belong. These next labels I use to label my ink pads and storage drawers or anything else I want to use them for. They can be printed on Avery labels 5160 and punched out using our Word Window Punch.

They fit nicely on the end of your ink pads so that you’ve got a label on both sides. I also use them on my storage for daubers, sponges, and refills. (You can click HERE to see a video of how I store things.)

2015 Color Labels (printable PDF)

Stop on back by tomorrow and I’ll share some of my other organizational items with you.

What’s Your Type? and More Organizational Items

I’ve got some more organization items for you, but first I wanted to share a card that I received recently from my friend Anna. Check out this great new stamp set from the 2014-2015 Annual Catalog, What’s Your Type?

What's Your Type

What’s Your Type? (135747) is one of our cool new Photopolymer stamp sets that you’ll find in the 2014-2015 Annual Catalog. Photopolymer make things really easy to line up. It’s also a two-step stamp set. The What’s Your Type? is a little different however, because not only can you add addition dimension by stamping in two colors, but you can make really cool words and designs.

Anna used the same image and stamped it twice, lining up the images edges to create shapes for this card using the line pieces. Cool, right? (Check out page 161 in the catalog to see even more ideas.)

You can find the supply list for this card below. But I wanted to share some organizational items that I promised you yesterday first.

This first one is a Accessories Index for the 2014-2015 Annual Catalog. I know that Stampin’ Up! has provided us with two great indexes right in the catalog this year, but I got such wonderful feedback last year with the one I created, I thought I would update it any way to share. Choices, use one or both, either way choices are a good thing!

Accessories Index 2014-2015 Annual Catalog (PDF)

These next two items allow you to label your Framelits and store them in our Clear Mount Cases (119105). You just print them out and cut before adding them to our Clear Mount Cases. You can click HERE to see a video showing you how from an earlier post.
