Okay I don't really have a joke, I just have always wanted to start a post this way! *okie cracks up because she finds her self to be very funny*.
So....Wanna see some organization pictures?? I was surfing around on Scenic Route not long ago and found some papers that I thought would be great for pictures of when I go on the Cricut Cruise. They also had some chipboard embellishments and some stickers *okie hears the gasps*. SHUSH IT! SHUSH IT RIGHT NOW! There are some decent stickers out there!!
Here are the pictures of my paper, embellies and flowers. The flowers I actually used on the layout I posted yesterday, well not all of them, but 3 of them.
As soon as I took the picture I got busy organizing the papers in one of my vertical paper holders. I use to get the Cropper Hoppers but Hobby Lobby now sells Paper Studio brand and they are cheaper *okie thinks they are made by the same company because they look the same*. i buy them either when they are on sale or I have a 40% off coupon. Here you see the paper all nicely organized. I used the dividers so I could divide the different paper lines.
I had enough room to put the stickers and embellies in the holder along with the paper lines. This should make it easier to find what I need when I start doing layouts with this paper.
If you guys haven't checked out SCENIC ROUTE and need some papers you might want to check them out. I got most of my paper for 15 cents a sheet. Some of it I had before and then when they added more papers for the lines I had I was excited!
I am ready to get my cardstock I ordered from CONSUMER CRAFTS and get it put away. I have my paper holders ready and dividers labeled, just need to get the paper. Not sure when that is going to happen since my order is stuck in Kansas City due to the snow *okie hopes it isn't spring before she gets her cardstock*. I got an email today from Consumer Crafts and they are offering $1.97 shipping on any orders over $25 through this weekend.
Tomorrow and Saturday I will be posting for the RED HOT BLOG HOP with some talented bloggers. The hop is sponsored by Celeste of Thirty One Gifts and there will be a prize available for one person who comments during the hop. I will be offering a prize on my blog separate from that and I believe some of the other bloggers will be as well.
check the gift shop on board the ship they carry scrapbook kits

ReplyDeleteStuck in KC because of snow? What ever happened to that postmans creed? Neither dark of night, rain snow or sleet.... I don't remember it exactly but you get the idea!!
ReplyDeleteNicely done! I received my paper from Consumer Crafts yesterday and it's already filed away in my Cropper Hopper paper holders. Thanks for that tip about the 'other brand' of paper holders; I'll have to see if I can find them here - I don't have Hobby Lobby here in MD. :(
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, Okie!

ReplyDeleteYou appear very organized. You can come to my house anytime and help me. My craft room is a mess. I can still find things but I have a long counter and it is just covered with my tools that I need to complete my projects. Any tips for the messy scrappers out there?
