A Rumor

So this weekend at Paper Vineyard in Chandler, AZ the craft world is getting together to hang out with Els of Elizabeth Crafts!!!  There are some pretty awesome projects planned THIS WHOLE WEEKEND!!!  Projects featuring Gel Pens and Glitter.... ah, the beloved glitter.  But it's ALSO rumored that a particular (and oh-so-popular) demonstration is going to take place:

Els will be demoing the special outline stickers on tape WITH the glitter and.... wait for it, wait for it.....
Copics!!!!  To see more of what I'm talking about, click HERE!!!  A special thanx to Inspiration Blooms for displaying all the pics from Elizabeth Crafts booth at CHA this year (the pic posted above included) on her blog!!! 

So yah, I'm an alcohol ink addict.  I don't need to remind all of you about my alcoholism.  I might just go ahead and form a support group for my addiction.  Anyone interested in joining me?  Please know, that when I say "support group", I mean that I intend on supporting your Copic alcohol ink habit and employ a 12-step program that will ENABLE you further with your affliction!  Anyone want support?  HAHAHAHAHA!

Past 7 Days....

So Lame

So over at Paper Vineyard, the challenge was to create a birthday project and it COULDN'T be a card.  I've personally been creating WAY too many cards lately so I was happy to try my hand at something new..... only I didn't. :(  Instead, I was busy preparing for last week's Cricut Swarm.  Now, while I missed creating a project specifically for our Birthday Non-Card challenge, I figured the cupcake box that I made would fit the bill PERFECTLY for a birthday-themed project.  The box also has an insert for a cupcake to fit inside.  I made it with my Cricut (cuz of the whole Cricut Swarm bit) and while I ADORE this box, I sort of had a little melt down making it and I decided that this is the last Provo Craft product I will ever buy.... let me share why (read through to find out the cartridge I used for this project)! Most of you know that I DESPISE Provo Craft.  I hate that the Cricut is a one-of-kind product that I loved....

The BEST Copic Storage

**** HUGE HALLOWEEN GIVE AWAY... CLICK HERE !!!!**** Ok, so I've done posts in the past about various Copic storage solutions, but I was given THE MOTHER of all storage ideas by my friends Jennie Black and Krista Koenig!!!   Let me share with you the construction of the storage box and then I'll finish this off with the BRILLIANT solution my husband came up with.... cuz I married a GENIUS!!!
