Welcome to the second installment of my mini-series called Organizing my Craft Room. Like I said last week, Organizing is just ONE of the Card making hobbies (the others are collecting and using/creating. Through a series of posts, we are going to work our way around my craft space.

I’ve got stories to tell, pictures to share and new products/concepts to tell you about. Grab your coffee and get comfortable because I am going to chat your ears off.

The Fine Print

First Edition Specialty Designer Series Paper offers an incredible sampling of newspaper and book prints. These designs are a perfect way to accent almost any style of card or project. With a closer look, though, you may be surprised at what you find in the words on the page. I gasped at some, giggled at others. Here’s a quick look at two of my surprises from the past year: Lovely As a Tree card and…
