Babykort

Denne gangen har jeg rasjonalisert litt og laget flere kort på samme mal og brukt same papir på alle. Jeg delte bare papiret og brukte delene om hverandre. Resultatet ble jo koselig det....

Jeg har brukt papir fra en gammel bok og stanset ut bord i akvarellpapir med Martha Stewart punch. 
K & Company 12" x 12" Patterned Paper, Ancestry.com Teal Floral & Newsprint. og blomster  og steiner fra Kort og Godt. Bilde fant jeg på nett.

In a mood for storage

Well, you may have seen my distress-ink storage solution, and now I will show you my dies-storage. I have made it from plywood, some hinges and magnet strips with tape on the backside. A piece of wood to mount it on. Some paint and its good to go.... Here is the result :)

Easy to browse.

Tim Holtz distress ink pads. Getting organized!!!

I have for a long time been stressed out about how I have organized my Tim Holtz ink pads. Well not any more... I have made my own storage shelf and I am proud about it... Just look an see for yourself.

Before:
In a drawer stacked on top of each other. Impossible to find..


First I ordered som architectural cardboard on the Internet. Then I measured and cut the cardboard. (It was a lot of measuring and cutting..)

Then I assembled it and glued it together with Glossy accents.


I cant have it open in the back so I cut a pice of cardboard and glued it to the back. Then I reinforced the edges with Glossy accents. 


Well done so far.... Over to the ink pads...

I store the ink pads upside down for the ink to be closer to the top of the pad. That make it harder to find the right color in stack of pads. I solved that by making paper strips with the name of the ink as a table in Word. I took a paintbrush with clear glue and painted over the words to protect the ink from being smeared when I colored them with the matching color.


Then I took glue on the back of the paperstrips with my Xyron.



And then sort them into similar color scheme ....
