YPP Embellishment Swap

H Everyone,


Just wanted to share with you, that I completed my first crafty swap ever, over at Your Paper Pantry. I made altered clothespins and paperclips; which I have neve done before, but I think I did okay for my first attempt. I did do a video and it is posted to youtube. It not my best video, but you can still see my swap items.

I will also do a video when I get my swap items from the other crafters.

If you love to craft and you love participanting in swaps YPP has something for every crafter. I am so glad I joined this great group of talented crafters.

Link to YPP is posted on my blog page to the right. Click Videos tab to see youtube videos.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Stay Crafty,
Diane

Just A Note...

Hi Everyone,

Haven't done an actual post in awhile. So let's catch up. On Monday I joined a wonderful group of crafters at Your Paper Pantry.  They have every type of crafter you can think of and great swaps. I just joined my first one ever. I am doing an embellishment swap, hosted by Cari. I choose paper clips and clothespins. Never done altered crafts before, but I think I did okay. I finished them up this weekend and I will do a video and post pictures before I mail them off tomorrow.

So stop on by YPP and see all the wonderful things they have to offer, there is something for everyone. The link is attached to my blog on the right side.

I also been busy setting up for The Close To My Heart, 8/1/2013 launch of their Fall/Winter Idea Book. So please visit my website and browse the idea book. You can also join as consultant and get up to $155.00 in product for just $49.00. No strings attached, if you are a hobbyist and just want the product it is great deal. If you interested in a side business this kit is a great starting point. Come check it out; any questions let me know...http://creativecrops.ctmh.com

Third task I am try to complete is my heritage scrapbook. I see light at the end of the tunnel, but still have lots to do.

Any way hope all of you are doing well and remember to take a little time to create, even if it's a random doodle...creating is a great release.

Until next time...Stay Crafty,
Diane
