Craft Room Organization: Ink Swatch Book

By on May 1, 2020 in Inspiration, Paper Crafting

Hello again! I’m starting off May with some craft room organization using some products with the May 2020 Hedgehog Hollow kit. Today it’s an ink swatch book and I have lots of ideas for you!



These colors have me feeling HAPPY! I used the smaller stars stamp from the stamp set included in the May 2020 Kit for the Distress Oxides. For the Distress Inks, I used the STENCIL to ink the colors on (since I normally don’t stamp with Distress Inks…I use them for techniques and stencils).

I have a video with some tools and tips for you, watch it below or in HD on YouTube:

I love some good organization! I have to give a standing ovation to Jennifer McGuire for putting together all these 2×2 ink charts with LOTS of inks. She even includes a blank one so you can fill in your own inks, too!

I got the 3 colors charts from Ranger and Scrapbook.com and if you are interested you can find them here:

For the Altenew inks, I stamped a flower with all the layering colors to see what they look like together.

Watch the video for all the details here.

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

I hope you enjoyed this today! I am so happy seeing all these colors together.

So have you done ink swatching in your craft room? I’ll be back real soon with more organizing ideas!

So Blessed

By on September 6, 2016 in Paper Crafting

I’m using a darling stamp set by My Favorite Things called ‘Best Friends.’ I was inspired to create this card from the current MFT Color Challenge here.

I paper pieced the dress, adding extra glitter and foam tape to the bottom of the dress (to make it more frilly!)

I also paper pieced the dog’s sweater so it matched the dress of the girl. This is a fabulous relationship they have, can’t you tell? Lol. Best friends.

Here’s a close up of her glittery dress and bow:

It’s difficult to capture the dimension of this card! She’s a cutie.
Thanks for visiting!
