I am sorry it is the wrong way. when it is saved on my computer it is right side up. Ugg i am sorry

Storage ideas. Going feng shui...lol

I am trying to rid my shelves of all those little annoying bottles. I consolidated all my flowers in this 12x15 clear envelope. Instead of rummaging through flowers i am able to pull it out from my shelf and see exactly what i want. See how compact it fits in my self.

I buy baby wipes in quantity. I decorated a coffee can and fit 3 large bags of the wipes in one container. very decorative and no more piles of wipes.

put all my punches in 1 basket. so much easier.

i hope you like my ideas! 

Back in Business! Found the camera

 Back in business found my camera. I decorated this cigar box. I liked it so much i kept it for myself.  

This was done for a co- workers baby shower, here favorite color was purple.

I've begun  making name tags for people at work. Aside from making cards i enjoy making items like this.
I used 1/2 CD case, decorative tape, various flowers. love it!

new craft stuff makes for great cards

I went to a great crafter sale. 220 stampers/scrap bookers came together tosell their very gently/ new items. The punch used on the card i got for $2- wow! i bought some great stamps from .50 to $5. I was inspired by one of the 4 card making books (2009) i got for $1. I have only been through half the store. The sale goes until the 28th. I am in trouble.......lol.  

VCMP Challenge #4: Beachy Thinking of You

LOVE Graphic 45 Paper

Tuesday nights challenge

My Corner- Candy's Corner

Lets start at the shelves! I am person who loves to have fun glittery, cute, vintage stuff around. As you tour you will see a lot of vintage posters pictures and nick nacs.

Second shelf down in the white drawers i keep my stamps and all of my cuttlebug and spellbinder products. My book that keeps all the images of the stamps sits on top of this.

All of my stamps are in CD cases. They match what is displayed in the book. When i want to find a stamp i just look in the book and match the number. All my ink pads, perfect pearls etc... are in the right hand box.

Plain ribbon in the clear paint can. Micro ribbon in the spice jar.

Bottons for cards and glitter branches for my latest project. Just a snip is all i need and it keeps the room beautiful. My left over gems sparkel at the bottom of the wine glass.

Pattern ribbon hanging on the side of the shelf.

This box is on the right shelf. It holds all of my holiday pattern paper for Halloween, Thanks giving and Christmas. I am set for next years card making season.

Drawer 1 holds A2 paper with matching envelopes. Second drawer holds letters, numbers and rub ons. I have some great ones for the summer.

MY DESK

If you look carefully you will see my eyelet punch with my mini misters at the bottom. The basket on the right holds all my adhesives.

My candle (very important) behind it hold many many diffrent eyelets and brads. Computer is on my right side for watch netflix while creating.

The Angels that have keep me safe since my surgery 3 yrs ago and sweet treats (love Valentines candy) with my pens.

Latest project..making name plates for all my co- workers

Under my desk- Garbage can (recycle paper), paper bag ( recycle plastics) foot rest (camping games) and plain paper at my finger tips. To turn off all power it is a foot click away.

PICTURES IN MY ROOM

Not to offend any one but i am a huge movie fan and this has been one of my favorite since high school. LOVE IT! i blurred it for people who might be offended.

Do i need to say more......she is awesome!

this is a vintage movie poster. I am lucky to have found it.

One of my favorite sayings..... short version if you can not read it...

Will you tell me which way to go...alice said

which way do you want to go...said the cat

I do not care where ...says alice

Then it does not matter which way you go ..said the cat

as long as i get some where ...said alice

oh you are sure to do that if you walk long enough ..said the cat

this is a glass pane with dried leaves between glass plates. i add the verses that inspire me around it.

why get married? and virtuous girl post cards with my virgin mary my grand mother (god rest her soul) gave me....yes kind of ironic......

NEXT TO MY DESK

Left side of my desk is 3 storage bins. Top for items that are used often, middle is for OWH card storage until i send them away, and bottom shelf for future projects. To the left is a bask of all my my card making books. on top of that is all my non- holiday paper.

To my right are 4 drawers from Ikea. The bottom holds Plastic envelopes- 7 total, one for each holiday or occasion. So when i need to do halloween cards i just pull out the plastic envelope that contains, sticker, papers and embellishments.

Next drawer is our stationary drawer. stapler, label malker, extra supplies held in this drawer. The other drawers are personal- makeful and gift wraping drawer.

Next week i am purging  and will post the things i am willing to swap if any one is intersted.

and there you have it- My Corner; Candys Corner

Found the camera!

This is a combination of our last challenge (black, white and one color) and the new Easter challenge.I have begun to make flowers myself. I am making a lot of fancy beautiful flowers that you will see in up coming cards. All flat to fit into the A2 envelope.

A thank you card but in the theme of love. Still in Valentine mode.

I love making my own flowers and butterflys.
