Gear up for NSM (National Stamping Month)

Got some great suggestions for my craft room remodel.  Do you have a theme for yours?  If not you may want to go trendy and use the Chevron symbol.  Its whats hot!  Start little and go big, start with this double D stamp set, celebrating National Stamp Month (September).  Yours for $5 with only a $35 purchase!  These are one of my favorite specials of the year.

Work Space

I have seen ladies post pictures of their beautiful and efficient work spaces.  I think of mine and chuckle.  I love it. But I have come to the realization that the story is almost at its conclusion and at that point Twilight Corner will probably get a make over.  Not sure what my "theme" will be but its rattling around in my head.  Any suggestions?

Banner fun

Banners are pretty much the rage right now.  I am always slow to pick up fads but I like this one a lot!  But I have discovered that making little girl sweet ones is much easier than making boy ones.  For girls there are flowers, butterflies, flowers, hearts, flowers.  And for boys...well I made one work and my sister-in-law said she loved it so...
I used the chip board banner  and the attached images were cut using the Art Philosophy Cartridge.  Note: new catalog comes out in August and the summer release is "out with the old and in with the new" so if you've been waiting to get the Cart, careful you don't miss out.

Have fun making one for someone you love or to cheer up a little spot in your home.

 This one is done using the Lucy Workshop on the Go kit.  I love recipes!  They make creating something so fast and easy.

 This one was made using my own thinking.  Ouch!  Like I said, finding images that were baby boyish was a but tough for me but I think I did ok.

I also enjoy using our new Color Ready binding ribbon.  I colored it with Grey Wool ink to match my project.
I do need to point out that the lettering on the NYLE banner was not CTMH. They were some extra chip board letters I had.

Snap the Water Fun!

Played around with the camera with the kids playing in the water.  Aside from children and flowers, ok and sunsets, water is one of my favorite things to try and catch on camera.
Don't be afraid of getting down and dirty to get a better perspective. You'll love the outcome.

 Don't you love the wave of muddy water at the left.  Gross but cool.

And yes I did get wet on this one.  My camera is ready to die so I am not super careful. But there are many creative ways to get a fun photo and keep your camera safe.   Plastic baggie with a hole cut out comes to mind...
Have a fun and beautifully creative summer!
