Monochromatic

Good Wednesday to you all, thanks for stopping by.  My sister challenged me on Sunday night to add some new posts to my blog spot.  It has taken me 3 days but, here it is. A Valentine's Day card that I made today!  I made it monochromatic using just Pretty in Pink.

Digital scrapbook page

Ok, so Vicki wanted to see something paper crafty, so here is the scrapbook page I made for her 25th A-day party.

Rainbow Loom Creatures

Here is the 3D shark that I made!

Penguin & Panda

My sister Vicki challenged me last night to add a new post to my blog.  Well here it is! My youngest son got a rainbow loom for Christmas and I made him these cute critters today.

Covered Journals

Good Friday to you all!!!  I hope that all who read this post have had a great week!

I had a couple of ladies at my house last night.  I taught them how to make a covered journal.  Here is the product of our evening.

Here is another one that was made at a previous Stamp Camp!

Hope you enjoyed looking!  If you have any questions or interest in a tutorial on how to make these just let me know.

Guess what?

I have not posted anything in a while due to the fact that I changed the layout of my blog, which took away my ability to add posts.  Then to top that off I could not remember my password..... but I am back now!!! Ready to give this another try!

Refilling SU MarkersI

 Just wanted to share with everyone a new discovery  I learned!  You can refill SU markers!  I thought I would share here tip with you.  Here’s how…

You can re-ink your Stampin’ Up markers!!!

All you have to do is use a pliers to pull off the larger colored end like I have shown above. You do have to get a good grip and pull REALLY hard. You will not break them, it goes right back in and snaps closed when you are done!

When you get the top off this is what the inside tube will look like. You just take your re-inker bottle and put a bunch of drops of ink right in the hole in the center and let it soak in.

Take the tube out fully so you can re-ink both end for the small and large tips. Once you have inked the center, put it back in and pop the marker end right back in, it goes back in with a click. This works great!! It takes a few minutes after you are done for the color to soak back up to the ends but then its just like having a brand new marker again!

This is great for the retired colors if you still use them and did not buy extra markers or just for the colors that you use a lot!!
