An Organized Scrap Area

Hey Everyone! Happy Thanksgiving Day!

I have been up early re-organizing my scrapbook area. I have also been pulling things out because I am trying to put together a box swap. A box swap is basically when everyone fills a box and sends it to one specific place. The person in charge will open all boxes and re-stuff your box with different items. Then your box will be shipped back with the prepaid postage back to you. You get to enjoy your new to you stuff. If you are interested email me!

Anyways, I took some pictures for you all to look at of my area.

This is the view of my whole area!

These are my scrapbook magazines and idea books. As well as my stamp sections, my not used all the time tools, embellishments, and I also have a put away box. Whenever I am scrapping continuously, I scoop all of my used items into this box and when I have time I will put it back in its place.


This is my box of stickers, my binders which holds all of my Tim Holtz masks, and my warranties, Basket of punches, old scrapbook albums, and paper trimmers, and die-cutting machines.


This is all of my paper: organized by either color or brand. Also my bible study material, adhesives, sparkles, and my Tim Holtz things. I use my printer and sometimes my sewing machine.


This is my desk. My bookcase is an Expedit from IKEA with the matching attached desk. I hold all of my ribbon on this doll form which you really can't see because I have so much ribbon. I have my pink tin which holds all of my samples. I try out products and make samples which I hold on to use during other projects. I also have a desk caddy which holds my pens, markers, scissors, tape runners, and other necessities.



Well, I hope you enjoyed the look at my scrap area. I wish I could dedicate a whole room but alas there is always my retirement home! =)

Happy Thanksgiving to All of you!

His Grace,
Michelle

Art Journal - Tim Holtz Distress Products

This is an Art Journal I created for my Women's Group at church.

I used Tim Holtz Paper, tissue tape, word charms, distress inks, sand grip, and clip. I also adorned a paper flower on the journal. I created a bookmark to go with it.

This is just a regular composition notebook that you can buy anywhere, covered on the front, back, and insides. Super easy. My mom gave me this idea.

I am even creating these for my sister's wedding. I will post those pictures once I get them done.

Email me if you have any questions on this project or any others!

His Grace,
Michelle

My Change In Life

I have decided to start a blog. To tell of my life, my God, and my joy: scrap-booking. I want to be able to publish some of the things I have created. Hope you all enjoy my insights!
