Just a quick reminder that today is the RSVP date for the Tailor Made Card Class I’m offering on April 24th.

Chicks & Chocolate & Your own "Chickie" Box
I held my second "Chicks & Chocolate" event last night. This one was an Easter theme and it was a full house again. I had a group of ten fantastic ladies attend and I think everyone had fun!
The three projects we created included a card & two 3-D items which included a mini milk carton using the Mini Milk carton die with the Big Shot and an adorable little "chickie" character box which also used the Big Shot and a number of our fantastic punches.
Isn't the chickie box adorable??? These little character boxes are just the right size to fill with small treats and would be perfect for Easter. If you are interested in creating this little chickie at home, I am selling kits only until Saturday, April 3rd for only $5 if you buy one, $4 each when you buy two kits or $3 each when you buy three or more kits.
Each kit will contain all precut and prepunched cardstock with step by step assembly directions. Kit does NOT include any ink or adhesive (or nesting material!). I've only got a limited number of kits available, so call me today!

Bits & Pieces, Odds & Ends
With Spring on its way, I'm very quickly getting into the spring cleaning mood! For me, that not only means cleaning up and clearing out the clutter, but finding ways to organize and arrange what I've got left.
Because I'd rather spend my pennies on new stamps, it also means coming up with simple and inexpensive ways to get organized! One idea I'm sure has been out there forever (but I'm going to show you anyway!) is a way to organize all the tiny little bits & pieces or odds & ends left lying around. I was just so excited when I thought of this!
First of all, if you have a baby or know someone with a baby, you've probably seen these little glass jars baby food comes in.
Our youngest LOVES her baby food, so we're left with many, many small glass jars. (Yes, I realize I could make my own baby food, but I'm a busy mom of three kids with a lot on my plate already...let's just overlook this one-of-many flaws I have and continue, shall we?) ;)
Rather than recycle them right away, I've been putting them aside in a cardboard box in our garage. I'm SO glad I have! While once again tidying my stamping workshop (it's really never-ending), I realized I wanted something neat and tidy to store extra embellishments, sponge daubers, etc in and remembered the jars! I snatched one out of the box, ran it over to mycardboard box painting studio and drowned the lid in a coat of black satin spray paint. The hardest part was leaving it to dry...yes people...I had to wait an entire 15 minutes!!! *gasp* ;) The horror! ;)
I ran it back to my stamping workshop, dropped some felt embellishments in the jar and added the lid. Oh my goodness! I love it!!! I can't wait to paint the other million jars I've got leftover!!
I haven't decided if I'll leave the jar as is or if I'll add a label to the front with some chalkboard paint. The best thing is that this would work for ANY size glass jar with a metal lid. And, with the many different colors of spray paint available, you can easily customize jars to your own decor colors.
