Dollar Finds

I've been super good about sticking with my spending diet since the Great American Convention. This week is the first time I bought something in three weeks and I'm proud of myself for displaying such restraint for three weeks.

I found these at Dollar Tree.

I never can have enough ribbon especially at 3 yards for $1.


Pattern paper packs each containing 6 coordinating sheets.










BIG zig zag and scallop cut scissors.





A chipboard album with insert window cover and chipboard pages bound by three ribbons.



Chipboard dimensional stickers.





These were at the dollar spot at Target.

Chipboard alphas





Thicker-like stickers.



Multiple rolls of ribbon in a pack.



Felt flower brads.



Rhinestones.



I love finding papercrafting deals for a buck!

Contest over there

Becky Fleck, the creator of PageMaps (online page sketches), has launched a blog. She's having a contest in celebration of its launch. I'm not much on contests, challenges, and such. But, the mood may just strike me for this contest. Here's her sketch


Becky's giving away a bag of BasicGrey products to the winner. Now, that's incentive!

If you like to use flowers and buttons, here's a cute layout on the Making Memories site.

Here's a nice way to use up ribbon scraps.

I've been thinking about making more home decor projects using photographs. This shadowbox by Sherelle Christensen looks interesting. I like Sherelle's shabby chic style. Here are some other projects of hers that I like This tag book , a card
more decor, an album cover, and inside pages.

Well, that's it for now.

Maya Road Coaster Album

This is such an adorable album made from Maya Road products.

Star decos & ornaments

This video shows you how to make a 5- and 6-point star. I think the 5-point star would be great to use as decorations on the Independence day, a baby shower, or Christmas. The 6-point star would make great Christmas ornaments. Enjoy!

How to use a Cropadile video

Here's an excellent video on how to use a Cropadile. Enjoy!
