I think I spend more time ON my craft room than IN my craft room . Anybody?

I got the Big Shelf and desk combo from IKEA, love that place! They have gotten almost as much of my money as Lowes!!

Treat Box

Isn't this a cut box? It holds 3 Ghirardelli chocolates. If you would like instructions, you can find them here.  Just make sure you score on the correct side of the paper. If you follow her directions, I found I scored on the wrong side.(could be just me)

Waffle Paper Challenge

My Upline Sandy gave us a waffle paper challenge at our meeting this month. I really struggled trying to come up with something.  I saw this technique on Youtube.  Its called Iris technique. I thought the waffle paper gave this look so much texture and movement. Thanks for looking!

Tissue Holder

This tissue holder is so cute.  I originally saw this on You tube, thanks, Stamp with Stephanie. Tutorial here.

•  Chocolate Chip CS#102128
• Baja Breeze CS#111352
• Gala Greenhouse DSP#117167
• 2" x1 3/8" Oval Punch #119859
• Decorative Label Punch#120907
• Modern Label Punch#119849
• Word Window Punch#119857
• Chocolate Chip Classic Ink Pad#100908
• With All My Heart stamp set#118623

This would be great for your desktop, or dresser, I probably wouldn't throw it in my purse. I think it would be great to make a fabric tissue holder with our new Candy Cane Christmas fabric #121715.

Top Note Business Card Holder

A while ago I posted my cute Top Note Business Card Holder.  You  need two top notes, one trimmed at the perforated line and adhere together, then score it at 1 " from the bottom and fold. I  used Tombow Mono glue for this project. For those who asked, here's the template. This is for the box part.
