Hello Friends! You know what the new year means, right? It means it's time to get organized both in your home and in your crafty space. The Christmas decorations are down and put away in the attic, now I'm focusing on my studio.

Scrapbook.com has a couple of items that I am absolutely loving right now. The first is the Craft Caddy. This tote is perfect for storing those items that you're using right now. I'm using it as my "seasonal bag." There are three colors available but if the color you want is out of stock, just click the button so you can be notified as soon as that color is restocked.


Currently, I have Valentine's and spring themed stamps, stencils, rub-ons and dies in my caddy. I can set it on my craft desk and grab all of the products that I need super easily. And, you can move it around as you see fit. So, if I'm heading to my daughter's volleyball practice, I can take it with me, or if there are a few things I want to work on while I'm sitting in front the TV, I can do that as well. It's a great craft caddy!

Next, is an awesome Magnetic Glass Mat that is a great size and it's perfect to use the large magnets to hold your paper while you ink blend. This one is definitely a keeper and a tool that I will use each and every time I craft.


I certainly hope this post has inspired you to start making room for 2026 by tidying up and pulling out those spring themed supplies. You know the season will change before you know it, why not be prepared! LOL! Thank you so much for stopping by today.

Hugs,

Carol

Hello Friends! Happy New Year! Does anyone know how long you should continue to say Happy New Year?? Is it a week, a month, two months?? LOL! Anyway, I hope 2026 is already bringing you joy and creativity beyond measure!

Today, I have a bright and fun card to share. All products used are from Scrapbook.com,


For this card, I started by die cutting a piece of the beautiful patterned paper from the Watercolor paper pad. I used the Swiss Dots rectangle die to create that dotted pattern in the background. Next. I pulled out my mixed media cardstock to add some color using Lustre Brushes.


The sparkle of the lustre brushes is so pretty IRL! The photos do not do them justice! I die cut my rainbow using Nested Stitched Decorative Labels. Next, I stamped my sentiment from the Love You stamp set.


Lastly, I added a few die cut butterflies around my sentiment for a little flutter! Thank you so much for stopping by today! 

Hugs,

Carol

Hello Friends! Happy New Year! Welcome to 2026!! As I said in my previous post, I'm walking calmly and gently into the New Year! I started my year by attending a New Year's Eve church service and it just filled me spiritually. I feel refreshed and ready for what 2026 brings!


Today's card uses fun products from Scrapbook.com. I love the rub-ons at SBC, so I pulled out the metallic Polka Dot rub-ons for my background. Next, I heat embossed my sentiment and die cut it using the Wavy Circles die.


I adhered my wavy circle to the center of card and added a few Pops of Color for a little added sparkle and shine! 

Thank you so much for stopping by today and I wish you a creative start to 2026!

Hugs,

Carol
