Where Bloggers Create 2012

Welcome to my creative space. This is where I spend WAY too much time! I like to dabble in mixed media, scrapbooking, leather crafts, home decor projects, and what ever else might come my way that keeps me occupied.

 This is where I keep my unmounted rubber stamps, paints, Tim Holtz stamp pads, Vinyl, misc. craft supplies

 My main work space. A huge and HEAVY desk I got at an estate sale for $25. It holds a TON of supplies!

The photo above shows one of my favorite things... a caddy from Faber -Castell. It holds all my Pitt Pens and all my Faber -Castell things.

Love my glass glitter from Melissa Francis.

Taking the Lifebook class with Tamera LaPort. This was one of the first assignments. I painted her using my Caran De'Ache colors.

An idea I found maybe on Pinterest. An old rake head used to hold my necklaces. I think I love it. I just put it up tonight and the old rusty look is growing on me.

Where I spend WAY to much time on Pinterest....

I'm loving all things Junk Gypsy right now. Here is the LINK to their site Gypsyville. You can find their show on HGTV on Saturday nights at 6:00pm Central time. You will not be disappointed. It's funky junk at it's best!

A few of my favorite things: Antique buttons galore. A plastic cup covered in crepe paper streamers, my guardian angel standing guard over all things, Junk Gypsy box that my necklaces came in.

My best friend, the Silhouette Cameo. Santa brought if for me last Christmas and I love it!! If you're on the fence about one... don't be, buy it NOW!

Love Kelly Rae Roberts!!

Inside my messy closet. It holds a lot of things. Behind the door is a tall shelf with more things hiding out of sight. I've got my dies and Big Shot hiding behind Betty. My dress form, yes I named her...Betty. I've yet to use her but she keeps me good company :-)

She Art Girls from Christy Tomlinson's classes.

More Kelly Rae Roberts goodies!

The absolute Best Magazines in the world! Where Women Create... I wish it came out more often. Just can't get enough!

Blogging Sorority creation

Was brown wood but I painted and distressed it. Looks much more "me" now. Got it at Hobby Lobby sometime last year. It sat unused for months. Now it is stuffed! and very much loved.

Cricut Imagine and carts. I need to use this gem more than I do.  Update it and use it, yes that is the plan!

Pinterest inspired. An old frame, pink spray paint, old cork board and a burlap peanut bag. Cut the corkboard down to fit the opening of the frame (bought at a yardsale), cut the burlap and staple to the cork board, hot glue in the frame and there ya have it. I just hated to pin anything to it. It was pretty with nothing on it.

My family... that is me that my daddy is holding. Probably around 1975 or so. I was a daddy's girl! I sure do miss him.

Thanks for stopping by my blog and taking a peek into my creative space. I hope you will leave a message for me and let me know you've stopped by. I'll be sure to come on over and visit you! Happy Scrappin'
