Storage Tip for glitter and enbossing powder

Hey everyone, sorry I haven't posted anything in awhile. This weekend I will be catching up and posting some of my current projects I have been working on. But in the meantime I wanted to share this great storage tip for your glitter and embossing powders. Just don't get them mixed up with your spices. :)

I saw this idea in a local scrapbook store. They were selling glitter in glass shakers from some company. And I thought this was a great idea. So I bought some shakers and made my own. The plain clear square glass shakers will work better than these. These are small cheese shakers and the holes are larger then salt/pepper shakers. After using, it's easy to put the powder back into the jars with powder buddy tray.

    Great idea, thanks for sharing. I think I may see if I can find some of these for my own stash.

2015 Christmas Cards

Hi Crafters, I wanted to share this year's Christmas cards I made. Each year I like to come up for 4 designs to make and sell. I made 350 of these cards which took me about a month. There was some major mass producing going on. I even recruited my sister to help me while I was visiting her over Thanksgiving. She was a big help with the "Happy Holidays" card. When I'm thinking about the layout of a card, I know I want it to be quick to mass produce, but still look nice. So when I made just one of these cards, I thought these were simple and would be quick to mass produce, especially the " Happy Holidays" one. Wrong!!...HAHA The only one that was quick, was the snowman card. This card was made using this Stampin Up stamp set. I got the idea from Stampin Up, but added my twist. The others had too many steps. So my advice crafters, is when you want to mass produce cards, think twice what you may think that would be quick to make. Once I got my

Hi Everyone,  I went to an indoor rummage sale yesterday and was on a hunt for glass pieces to glue together to use for my crafting embellishments. I would see vids on YT on other crafters and they would be talking about their candy stations and I didn't know what they were talking about. So I looked up some vids and saw that a crafter's "Candy Station" was pretty containers holding embellishments  placed on together in an area. Which I think is a great idea if you have the space. I have a lot of embellishments packed away, I forget what I have. So I am in the process of creating my own calorie free Candy Station. Oh I might sneak a bowl of chocolate in there, after all what's crafting without a little chocolate!  I thought I can make mine own. So I dug through old boxes of things I got from grandmother and found old glassware. The 2nd photo is what I bought for a 1.00 at the rummage sale.
