My First Box Using The We R Memory Keepers Gift Box Punch Board

This is my first box.  It was rough but I got though it  LOL



I did another attempt for practice and got it right. I just used some yellow card stock and stamped Halloween images. one of the stamp sets that I used is retired. The little cute skeleton is from Little Monsters C1630

[VIDEO] I Robbed Michael's and Hobby Blind

Yep your heard correctly.  I robbed both Michael's and Hobby Lobby blind with the use of COUPONS!!  WOOOO HOOOO.   When I have a bunch of good ones, I use them and go on a shopping spree.  I hate paying retail when I don't have to.  I will have another video today using one of my new toys including bloopers.  I don't edit them out because I don't want you to make the same mistakes that I do.

[Video ] of Halloween Treat Boxes and Scrapbooking Crop Held At My House

Had a great weekend.  A couple ladies came to scrap.  It was my first  local crop in my home and my first crop I ever attended.  I am going to post a couple pics and a video of the little Halloween treat bags I made for them.  The treat bags came from an svg file that I purchased from SVTCUTS.

Here are all 3 of us in my dining area turned into a crafting area.  Allen in back, I am in the middle and Carrie is in the blue closest to the camera.

Here is the layout I was working on.  I used the Zoe Workshop On The Go ( G1096) and scrapped my event.

Now for the treat boxes

Craft Room Organizaiton

It is so hard to organize a craft room that is 7 feet wide and about 10 feet long.  That is my teeny tiny craft space.  There is an additional maybe be 6 feet that the boys have their toys.  The oldest one doesn't even go in there anymore because he is past that stage at age 15.  The other one is just turning 13.  He still plays with some things.  But there is a lot in there that needs packed up.  Any how, it is a work in progress.
