In the beginning of February, I decided I was sick of digging all of the scrapbooking materials out of the desk I was using to do just one or two pages. I am the kind of person who believes that everything has its place and when things are not organized, it drives me crazy. So I bought myself a little something to keep all of my embellishments, stickers, papers, stamps, and everything else you can think of organized. I purchased this desk that is made by The Original Scrapbox. I think its called the "mini workbox". I cannot express how much I love it. Everything has its own drawer and I still have empty drawers to fill up. When I open it up, the top is used as the work surface and its big enough to spread out all my stuff. Believe it or not, my kids leave it alone. I think they know I will "snap" if anything is out of place or missing. I have limited space to scrap in my house with 3 kids running around so this works perfect. And its on wheels so I can push it anywhere. PERFECT!!!!
I also recently completed a page of my youngest daughter at the 4th of July parade last year that I think turned out cute. I cut out the stars with a friends Cricut, embossed them with dots, then sanded the tops of them so the dots were white. I adhered them with foam squares so they stick off the page. Its hard to tell from the picture but its pretty cute in person.
Last weekend I went up to Cushing with a few ladies on my very first "Scrapbooking Retreat Weekend". I had a ton of fun and got a few pages done. One of my favorites from the weekend is this circle layout with all 3 of my girls from last winter. I've never done a circle layout but I'm happy with how it turned out. I die cut the snowflakes with my Silhouette, rubbed ink on them with a cotton swab, and sprayed them with some glitter spray. CUTE!!! Again, its hard to tell from the picture but I love it so wanted to show it.
Until next time, Happy Scrapping!!!
