Desk Changes I made for my current needs...

 Pictures of the changes I made on my desk this week. I am starting to prepare myself for another "Take your houseback" event. Just FYI its on sale until the next event for $94. If you are needing that extra boost of support, I highly recommend these ladies. (But only at this price)




I ordered a few of the workshop wonder items on clearance. I ended up with way more of certain bits and less of others I actually wanted. Probably should have planned this one better:). I did end up ordering the paper trays when they reduced to $8.98 (trying to not go back and buy more). Still waiting for those first ones to arrive. (I went back and ordered more)



I have found I am using my acrylic blocks more when I do an album retreat and I am planning to re do a few of the past ones so I thought having them front and center for this moment would be handy and I had some items on these little shelves that I'm just not using regularly. I love that I can change this up as I change my needs. Very functional. 

I would never have thought that a peg board system would be so easy to use and function with changes to my crafting needs.

        

One item I did drop a bit of cash (I might regret) is the ballerina holder for my blender brushes. After researching these this one mentioned being able to hold the SU ones.
I had gotten a cheaper holder on amazon but only my smallest brushes fit. Very disappointing. 
I have SU and CTMH brushes and with all the money I had at the scrap store I got a few packages of Hero Arts (very similar if not the same feel as SU & CTMH)

I did get rid of some cheaper brushes I got on amazon and even an assortment at the scrap store they were not as good, so this is an area I recommend spending the extra to get the quality blending. Bending with the cheaper ones did was very frustrating. Very bendy and just not pleasant.

Mini update even before I have posted this - Loving the ballerina holder and so glad I took a chance on it. Probably not for everyone and you do need space to hold this on your desk but I am finding it works out well for me right now.

Paper Pumpkin Magic! - 3 layouts and 6 cards

  I received my paper pumpkin kit for July and wanted to create a few layouts and some of the cards. Video shows the cards and layouts - creating one 12X12 layout during the video for Nancy. You Tube Video: Cards: Daisy in Old Olive card  Flower in Melon Mambo card Poppies in Calypso Coral card Card details: Card base is from CTMH July Paper Pumpkin kit Inks - Artichoke, Rosy and Papaya Cuts: Card base from the kit cut in half then the floral front was cut to 3 3/4 X 4 3/4 the solid pattern was cut to 4 X 5 1/4 (cutting out 3 1/2 X 4 3/4 out of the center) Process: I added the corresponding ink to the card base to soften it and then I added the solid pattern and the floral pattern. I inked the edges of the floral and solid pieces from the kit then adhered them to the card base. I added strip pop tape to the frame and the flower piece then added it to the card. Finished with the included sequins. 12X12 Layout: Calypso Coral card 12X12 Layout bits: Kraft (2) 12X12, (2) 4 1/...
