Here is my work station and have my most used products close at hand!! Do you see the jars of flowers I separated by color!! that was fun--I didn't know I had SOOOOOOOOOO MANY!! Can you see the jar of buttons! Yes, I have my Tim Holtz stuff close by on the shelf. I decorated a "tin lunch box" to put my alcohol inks in and it is so portable. Love my OTT light. I have a pic of how I store my Glimmer mist sprays and Cricut cartridges along with my Junkitz bags of gold and silver emblishments!! My computer and printer/scanner right close by. I moved my antique table to create my working space--Now if i can get used to it there and not BANG my knee on the corner!! I also included a small pic of my outdoor garden but you can see my 2 Cassia tress blooming bright yellow flowers right now--just love them. My screen saver has a pic of one my roses! not bad pics for a beginner photographer!!

new Scrapbook Room
As you continue to walk in my creative space, this is how I store "some" of my paper and "some" of my alphabet's. Yes, I also, seperated my paper by vendor and alternated the colored tabs so that I may see them better! I have my grandmother's rocker to sit in when I want to chill out and read my new magazines!

New Scrapbook Room
So here is the total pic of that first "storage station" I have in my scraproom. I just love my antique lamp topped off with an antique hat to boot. Do you see the peg board I just bought to hang somewhere to store my punches and other "odd" stuff!!

Updated Scraproom pics
Okay, so here is my OCD beginning of organizing and trying to be creative and thrifty!! How many bottle of Prima did you buy and how many little bottles of Robin's Nest pebbles do you buy--Yes, I bought them all and since I am OCD-- I sat down and seperated every differ color of bottle of pebbles!! can you believe it?? Yes, but look how beautiful they look in the empty Prima flower bottles. Yes, I seperated those by color too!! Okay, so I couldn't throw away the back of the packaging from my Prima bling since my scrapbook room is black and white with color of pink thrown in there too!! Can you see that I cut them down to be the "wallpaper" to the inside of the cubby's!! Now I just have to finish using the rest of my bling to finish "wallpapering" the rest of the cubby's!!

Valentine HDYDT
Yes, I have been busy again this weekend and put to use another HDYDT l/o that I didn't have pics or should I say couldn't decide what pics to use. Yes, once again, I clustered and added to the original l/o! I couldn't help myself! I kept remembering Wendy in the back of my mind saying--"just commit and glue it down" OMG!! I did it but also in the back of my mind Tanya and Aphra kept saying cluster a little more--what else is in your stash!! HA HA HA!! Do you recognize some of the old stuff I used with this Technique Tuesday l/o too???!!!!!! I even layered some Petaloo flowers with some Queen & Co flowers--can you see them?? Do you see some old Heidi Grace suff too

Layouts completed during Labor Day Holiday
This is an older HDYDT l/o that I finally found pics to match to complete the l/o!! YEAH!! This is annual trip Alexis takes with her Grammy and Gramps!! As you see Grammy is nowhere to be found because she is taking all the pics for ME!! I wish I would have been there--I had to do lots of cropping but overall you have to give it to my mom for doing her best!! Who remembers how we did the coconuts!! just love the technique. Did you notice it is using Technique Tuesday chipboard!!
