No papercrafting

I did the unthinkable, I ran out of ATG tape. I really need to get some more and in a hurry so I can craft. I am hoping to post some new pieces of "Art" in the next week or so showcasing out some of our new papers. I am so excited.

Sneak peek at new Idea book

Here is several sneak peeks at what will be in the new idea book. We are also debuting our alcohol inks. You will get not one but two colors for every color you order. One will be the true color and the other will be either a shade darker or lighter for shading. How cool is that! We also will have several kits available for our WOTG kits. If you would like to purchase one click the link on the sidebar.

New Idea Book......

Will be live for customers to order from on August 1st.

In the next week I will have them on my door step to send out to everyone who wants one. I am only charging for the cost of shipping. So you get the book free and just pay for shipping. How cool is that. If you would like to receive an invoice please email me your email address. Send it to ctmhkeisha@yahoo.com

I will send an invoice and have labels ready, so when I get the book it will go right back out of the door.

Corner Bookmark

This is a corner bookmark I made last night. The very first time for me. I say that it turned out pretty nice. Hoping to make more today.

I got the instructions here, they were easy to follow and simple to do.

I used Pemberley Paper Pack to make this, plus stickles, and spellbinders for the heart.
