My Scrap Space

WOW...it seems like forever since I've posted
something new!! I have been busy reorganizing
my scrap space. I had been so busy creating and
hadn't cleaned it in forever and it showed!! : )

My space is only about 13' x 9' or 10'. I share with
our home office. I would love to have kitchen cabinets
installed with solid counter tops and hope to eventually
do that, but for now this is it.

Overall view of my room


This little set of shelves hold so much. My Cricut
cartridges, Cuttlebug and folders and my clear
stamps.


My JetMax cubes hold my cardstock and paper.
In the drawers are my punches, inks, ribbon and
embellies. Of course there is more cardstock stashed
in some of the drawers.....yes, I'm addicted to cardstock. : )

I use these shelves to hold some of the things I
don't use as often as well as a hodge podge of
things.
I would like to put another small work table in front
of my windows.....I think I will do that soon. I just take
up so much table room when working on a project. : 0 )

My space in the closet. I keep things like my
BIA, heat embosser and misc. items.

Thanks for looking....Hope you like my little corner
of the world! Now that I've got it organized once
again, I'm ready to get back to creating. : )

A Big Thank You to my Good Friend Lorrie

pages for you. Lots more cute plaids and

Christmas Create A Window - Thank You Ginger

I just had to share this Beautiful version
of my Create A Window. It was created
by a wonderful lady named Ginger. She
was kind enough to share it with us. Isn't it
Gorgeous!!! I Love the red bows on the
outside of the window and the big snow
covered tree. The scene in the window
is unbelieveable...I just Love it! The entire
project is Fabulous! Thank You Ginger!!!
Click on pictures to enlarge and see all the
detail she has added.

Here are Ginger's directions:
I did leave it the original size. The carts used were George, Christmas solutions, and A Child's Year (the ball in the window). The tree in the window has been overlayed with branch punches (MS) and decorated with miniture bead trim. I cut all my page overlays from chipboard, not just cardstock. I use ink and markers to do the edges of the pieces.

Chirp Spotlight - The Night Before Christmas Album

I am so excited to have my album as a Chirp
spotlight!!! I have to say, "Thank You" to all of
you that have dropped hints and sent emails
requesting that I be spotlighted in the Chirp.
I appreciate all of you! Also to my good friend
Kristin aka K.McIntyre on the Cricut MB. She is
the one that took the time to compile all of the
information needed and submit it to the Chirp!
Thank you all for this opportunity to be in the
Chirp spotlight.

I am reposting the original thread so it's easy for
everyone to find. Hope you all enjoy a 2nd round. :)

My goal with this book was to tell the story of
The Night Before Christmas. It turned out even
better than I had imagined. : )

Cricut cartridges needed for this book are:
G&BS, CC, CN, JOTS, Keystone, PDDU, DC & ACY.
A list of cartridges and abbreviations can be found in my sidebar.

Santa has landed on the roof.

I think Santa has been caught and is trying to
hide behind the Christmas tree.


Even the little mouse is trying to get a peek.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care.

Santa's going to check his list twice.


Shiny red cardstock is from DCWV. I thought
it was perfect for the sleigh.
