Hi Fellow Bloggers...
Today's find is designed to help you keep Stickles and more organized. Because as we crafters know, when we are organized we can find our "stuff", use our "stuff" and actually get to our "stuff".
I found this great little item by the folks @ UNHINGED CREATIVE.
It is a round storage device known as a bottle holder that can hold up to 18 bottles of the following:
Stickles, alcohol inks, reinkers & glitter glue bottles.
It looks like this:
As you can see, it comes with a cover & it is a simple concept.
You can find where to purchase them by going HERE.
There is also a quick video available there as well demonstrating how it works.
Hope you enjoyed this find.
Have a wonderful weekend.

CRAFTING TIP OF THE WEEK (#108) Magnetic Surface in your craft room...
Happy Monday Crafty Bloggers!
Just a quick tip this week. If you would like a magnetic surface to place magnets & projects try using a knife strip.
They look like this:
You can find these in the kitchen /home stores, IKEA and of course online.
They have a small footprint and can fit in the tiniest of spaces. If you have a small craft studio or just need another area to hang some important notes, ideas or projects the slim profile on these strips will allow you to place it just about anywhere. A wall, a door, a cabinet and even on the side of desk. Just find yourself some large magnets or make some to use with the knife strips.
Hope this helps anyone out there needing just a little extra space to display their layouts, cards, ideas or notes.
Have a good week!

CRAFTING TIP OF THE WEEK (#107)Including CD's with your Albums
Hello Crafty Friends!
Have you ever wanted to include a CD of extra photos or a song as part of a scrapbook?
I want to share with you a way to do so.
You simply make a sleeve for your CD out of cardstock & adhere it to either a scrapbook page to take a place of prominence or subtly on the inside cover (front or back) of your album. This way it will remain with its subject matter and can be easily accessed.
The key is to use a good heavy weight cardstock and very strong adhesive like Scor Tape or Liquid Scrap Dots.
You want to start off with a square shape. Simply trace a CD case on the paper of your choice with a pencil. Then cut it out. You will then cut a half circle into the square cardstock & apply your adhesive to the other 3 sides. There you have it. A sleeve to slide in your CD's and keep them with your ever important photos, layouts and even cards.

CRAFTING TIP OF THE WEEK (#106) Punch Card Template Booklet
Hi Fellow Bloggers!
Today's tip offers up a solution on a couple of levels.
Ever want to see all the punches in your inventory at a glance?
Ever wondered if a punch would work for one of your stamped images?
If so, you are not alone.
How about making yourself an easy way to find out?
Using scraps of paper/cardstock from your stash (preferably solid colors), use each punch in your stash individually to punch out the shape on your scraps. To keep everything uniformed, cut down your scraps of paper used for this project to a manageable size like 3"x4". Make sure you leave room on your punch out on the upper left or right hand corner to punch a hole.(So this booklet will work easily for the left handed or right handed crafter.) You will need it to thread some ribbon or a binding ring through it. By doing this, you will create a little "booklet" of all the punches you have in your inventory. You should label both the punch & the punch-out sheet that coordinates with each punch that way you can easily match them up when you are using this method. It is a great way to cross reference your product.
If you are lucky enough to own a laminating machine, I recommend using it to laminate your individual punched cardstock. This will help keep your booklet in tact. Free from rips, snags, tears, spills, inks, etc...
I used XYRON'S CREATIVE STATION 900 with the laminating cartridge and it worked like a charm.
Now while that alone is a great way to know what punches you have on hand it can also help you when wondering if you could punch out a stamped image with a certain punch.
(Hang in there...video demonstration is coming below)
For instance, say you stamp a damask image that you want to punch out. Just take your handmade punch booklet over to your damask & place the punched out template over your stamped image until you find the punch shape that best will work for your image. Then grab that punch & go for it. You won't have to punch out 7 images before getting it right. You will save time, paper & the stamping of your images over & over.
Now I was going to take pics as usual for this tip but my youngest daughter had other plans. First she insisted I get with the 21st century & try my hand at a video. So I did but was not happy with it. I felt so camera shy & it just was not working for me. Then she said she would just film me in action minus everything but my hands & the crafty stuff. Sounded good so we did that & I thought it was ok. But my director, producer & videographer a.k.a. daughter said no way! Then she had a brilliant idea that I should let her give it a try just for fun- of course. Well, I have to say I liked it! But, I told her that since it was my first video that maybe I should be the one to do it. I will let you see "what video" she ended up downloading.
Here's the video that my sneaky little daughter made explaining today's crafty tip(I wasn't allowed to see it until after she did it-that's called downloading on blind faith :
As you can see, I approved it & the rest is history.I did grant her amnesty & did not ground her. I think she did a great job!
Hope you enjoyed this refreshing fun take on my crafting tip of the week post!

CRAFTING TIP OF THE WEEK (#105) Got Floss?
Hello Crafty Friends & Fellow Bloggers!
Today's tip is a quick tip.
If you find yourself in a pinch for string, thread or ribbon try using "dental floss".
Preferably non-waxed for any part of your project that will include a photo, just to be safe. But even so you can use it with or without wax especially when threading buttons. It works great. It glides easily and does not unravel easily like sometimes thread or string can do. Side tip...you can actually apply a little dab of wet adhesive on the end of each piece of floss you are working with & that will help keep it in tact while you work with it.
In case you're wondering, you can use alcohol inks, glimmer mist, distress inks & other coloring agents on the non-waxed floss. For the waxed floss use something like Staz-on.
That's all folks!
Have a good week.

FABULOUS FRIDAY FIND-Archival Mist
Happy Friday!
Today's find is brought to you by EK Success & you may have even seen it around or know about it.
But for the sake of those that do not...I share with you...
*****ARCHIVAL MIST******
This product gently neutralizes the destructive acids in paper and deposits a safe, permanent alkaline buffer to protect against future acid attack. It is safe and easy-to-use. Archival Mist effectively treats paper keepsakes including scrapbook materials, newspaper clippings, certificates/awards, artwork (your kids especially) and all other paper-based crafts.
The materials in Archival Mist are non-toxic, non-hazardous, non-flammable, and odor-free. It contains no solvents and will not affect inks, colors or adhesives.
You can find it at online retailers and some brick and mortar craft stores too.
The mist typically runs anywhere from $16.95 & up depending on the size bottle you purchase.
I don't think I need to tell you how valuable a crafting companion this can be especially when working with newspaper clippings, heritage photos and your kids' artwork.
Until next time...
