So, I'm participating in a year-long "Craft-it-Forward" event on Facebook. Here's the status everyone posts:
I have pledged to "Craft it Forward" this New Year [pass it on...]! I promise to send something handmade to the first 5 people who leave a comment to this update. HERE'S THE CATCH: You must in turn promise to post this and send something you have made to the first 5 posters on your status. The rules are that it must be handmade by you and it must be sent to your 5 people sometime in 2011.
I was struggling with what to do, since the only craft I know how to do is scrapbooking. Then, it hit me one day. I have a TON of empty powdered formula cans! I haven't been able to bring myself to throw them out (I guess it's the "green" in me...and I just KNEW they'd be useful for SOMETHING!) and so there are probably 20-30 in my lower kitchen cabinet. I Googled ideas and these are the results I got:
Here are some of the pics:
Cute, right? So, now, I just need to set aside the time and DO IT!
Share any "out of the box" ideas YOU have! :-)
So, my first product post is going to be about the Personal Trimmer. CLICK HERE
My Personal Trimmer is my #1 go-to item from CM!! I use it ALL THE TIME. And not just for scrapbooking. This thing is perfect for cutting wallet-sized pictures...school pictures, the ones you get on a 4x6 from a photo printer, etc. I usually have to use my 12-inch trimmer first to cut the larger sheets down, but once I do, my Personal Trimmer is SUPER FAST for cutting everything evenly and cleanly. LOVE IT! I've also used it for my daughter's school projects. You could use it to cut your coupons (if you're like me and OCD about getting straight edges on them!). The possibilities are endless with this awesome tool!
What's your favorite CM item?!
Hello everyone!
This blog will serve several purposes. I plan to post projects I'm working on, reviews of new products CM introduces, my favorite CM products, ideas, and anything else I can think of. :-) If there is anything you'd like to see, please let me know.
To start off, I'm going to post some pages I've done using Creative Memories' StoryBook Creator Plus 3.0 software. CLICK HERE
