I've got some random bits and pieces to share today.
1. Here's a quick card I made for the hubs for Valentine's Day:
(I didn't realize that little birdie was even on the table until I looked at this photo! How cute!)
2. Jennifer McGuire had a link on her blog to the product below:
It's a storage cubby for pens, which are supposed to be stored on their sides. I love it! Totally genius. It's from a company called Studio 3 Solutions. They say that a single tower (one five compartment section) will hold 120 Copic style markers (24 per cubby). I'm seriously tempted to buy some...the only thing stopping me is my lack of counter space. Right now all my pens are stored away in a drawer and I just don't think the cubbies would fit in there.
3. To answer a question from Monday's post:
On the party 33 layout (Happy Birthday, too!), how did you make the dotted background at the top? Inking or spraying over some kind of stencil?
I used a mask to keep everything contained to the same area, but the dots were made using punchinella. It's sequin waste and basically you use it as a stencil.4. The "official" announcement is up on the Scrapbook Memories TV website:
New this season:
Julie Fei-Fan Balzer appears as resident artist and interviews other designers on the “artist to artist segment.”I'm really excited and looking forward to knowing what you think of the new "artist-t0-artist" segment! Scrapbook Memories TV airs here in Manhattan on channel 25 on Mondays at 3:30pm. You can check here to see when it airs in your area!
5. I've got another before and after layout for you.
Which one do you like better and why? I'll give my opinion after the weekend!
Thanks for stopping by!
