Re-Labeling

As I was trying to clean up and Organize 

I decided it was time to replace the fading the labels on my bins.

I also replaced the labels in my drawers that had label maker labels.

The top label is the old faded one, 

the bottom one is the new fresh one.

  

The small set of drawers on my desk were all labeled 

with a label maker but I just didn't love it.

Here is the new labels, much better.

Here are another set with labelmaker labels.

and the nice new labels.

I will share all of the storage once I get it all organized - 

Stay Tuned.

Spectrum Noir Marker Storage

I took my Spectrum Noir markers to camp this summer to colour, 

it was awesome!

It did however solidify the thought that my storage of them needed to be changed.

I had them in a black basket divided by basics colour.

It was taking me too long to find the colours I wanted.

So when I was first injured, this was mt first organizing task.

My friend had hers in a card storage bin, 

So here is what I came up with, So far so good.

Here is wha I had at camp, see the basket.

 Here is my lovely new case.

I have cardstock with duct tape along the top to protect the 

cardstock and give it strength.

There is one in between each row.

Here is the case snapped shut.

I can put images in the top if needed.

All safe & sound.

Hope this helped you or inspired you!

With Sympathy

A few months ago a dear friend, her daughter and sister-in-law, 

all of whom I am friends with lost a loved one.

When close friends need a card they get homemade cards,

I was short on Sympathy cards so I created these with a friend

& I made extras for my card box.

The passing of a loved one is never easy, 

but I like to think receiving kind words in a hand crafted card

makes you feel the love of friendship & helps.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanks Giving from my Family to yours...

My you have many Blessing surround you!

MIA All Summer & Alpha Organization

Hello All

Every Summer I go missing to spend time with my family at camp.

Our summer season is  short here as I live in Northern Ontario Canada, 

so we get outside for a few months & I rarely enter my Scrapbooking room.

This summer as we had our Long weekend wind up, 

the beginning of September, I had a miss hap on a side by side ATV

and have been on a lot of bed rest.

I have been surfing the net and checking out all the blogs,

but typing was to hard on my side.

So over the next few days I will catch you up on a 

few things I have been able to do.

Today was one of my first days to get in the room and

poke around a bit to find thing to do will resting.

I decided that my Alpha Stickers needs to me organized as I 

took everything off of my Clip it up & it will be rehomed at a friends!

 I loved this bin and wanted something good to put in it.

I tried a few things but they didn't fit well.

I hope this works well.  It sits under my desk beside my feet.

you can see this area as you walk into my room so I think this will look neat and tidy.

 They are folders that are open with the flap up 

as some alphas are too wide for the pouches

I labeled the top flaps so i can pull out what ever colour I need.

 I have also added my thickers to this bin.

They were up on a shelf & I didn't use them often, hoping to change that.

Well thats I all i have for today, 

check back through out the week to see what else I have been up to.

Sketch~n~Scrap# 133

Hello All, 

I have been MIA with the 

nice weather finally arriving

way up here in the North.

We have enjoyed camp & have been working 

on some yard work when ever the rain holds out!

Today I came back from camp a bit early to tale a peek 

my scrapbooking desk, as always I am behind in my photos 

and wanted to get a few off my desk.

I wondered over toe Sketch~n~Scrap,
