I’m in love with some of the clothing, shoes, accessories, and “randoms” at ModCloth.com
They have some very unique things I can’t find in my town… and at really affordable prices! I thought I’d share their website with you in case you’re on the hunt for something special, unique, artsy, or different that your everyday


OK – all my fellow wine drinkers – i totally love this project
Great step-by-step Tutorial from LollyChops.com
WOWZA. This random Bag of Scrap is chock-full of great supplies and take a look at the price – yikes! I’m gonna snag one today
Just too cool to pass up… and great reviews.
I grabbed this from the GCD Studios blog… loved their ideas and execution of fun party accents and favors:
Hello!!! It’s me again (Lori). Before I share the tutorial with you I want to show a couple of other things that can be created for a party. They are easy and inexpensive to make. I got the ideas from marthastewart.com. The silverware pockets were originally to be made from fabric. But I thought it would be easier (and just as cute) to make them from paper. I made these three in approx. 30 minutes. Here’s the link http://www.marthastewart.com/photogallery/60-outdoor-party-ideas#slide_54

Love this take on a sports album!
I was drawn to the Teresa Collins Sports Edition Album Kit because my own teenage sons are very involved in sports and I am always looking for unique sports-themed patterned papers and embellishments. As it turns out, I used this kit to create an album as a graduation gift.

I’m loving this layout… err… plastic plate with pictures on it
Such a neat idea!

WOW! I found a neat project on Violette’s Creative Juice blog:

Not only is this the coolest topiary tree I’ve ever seen… but its made from the ads in your Sunday paper (cheap!!)

Check out the complete tutorial here!
Love it! Thanks to Violette’s guest blogger Wendy T. Gibson
OK – i have a new obsession! I just recently discovered PhotoWorks.com, part of American Greetings (the greeting card company)!
They have a fantastic assortment of photo book options, designs, etc. as well as dozens of other creative photo gifts and cards. I’ve already ordered my first photo book (so easy) and the quality is SUPERB. Check them out, and get free shipping on your first order with coupon code MYFIRSTORDER at checkout.

Happy Creating!
I was over at ScrapVillage.com today and found a really cool article on canvases and how to make decor and gifts in a scrappy way!
It can be intimidating looking at a big, blank canvas. I know I was overwhelmed when given the opportunity to design for Canvas Concepts. Hopefully this article will show you how to have fun with canvas and feel comfortable creating “outside the album!”
