Pardon My Absence

Hello World, Things got crazy and some changes have happened. But all good I promise :) So I'll be here more often and so excited to be getting more in my craft room!

I recently decided to find a new storage system for my stamps, so I sold my clip it up and this is what the craft room has looked like since then. My plan today is to tacial this into something managable. I want to switch it to the same system Jennifer Mcguire has, if you haven't seen it yet check it out HERE.

At this duty station we are not close to much, so I get super happy when I find scrappy goodies. On a recent trip to Marshall's I was so excited to find some Studio Calico goodies, check out what I picked up below.

Our office has been under construction since hubby got a new desk, so with all this crazyness, I've been limited to where I can hang out but its all cleaned up and back to normal. Well as normal as normal can be.

My desk is in there somewhere :)

My sweet find at Marshall's :) 

the office in crazy mode :-)

CHA approaches

I made it back safely from trip overseas! Guess what I get to come back to, tons of previews for CHA, yay!

Bella Blvd has done it again, they have some amazing collections that they are coming out with. You can check them out at there blog and there even giving away chances to win some of the collections! There's a birthday girl collection that has cupcakes, ahhh adorable, and a birthday boy so cutie!

Tim Holtz has done it again some really cool dies! Check them out HERE! I love this one, gotta try it out with chipboard!

Yeah the goodies continue!!!! My Little Shoebox has some amazing collections, I couldn't pick just one to showcase here. This is vintage shop and it has owls in it, so cute!

Lily Bee is new to me ( I know I've been out of the loop for a while), but they have some great stuff! This is my favorite so far, its Persnickety! They even have a stamp that goes with it and it has a polaroid image!

Studio Calico, wish they sold it close to me, but have some neat-o stuff! Frames that look like polaroids, a great star mask, mistables and washi tape! This is the yearbook collection :) 

There are so many releases I can't post them all :) I'm seeing a trend in the polaroid icons and washi tape!!!! I think I'm gonna need a bigger craft room. 

Enjoy! Happy Art Making
