Lovin' the vintage.

I've always loved all things vintage and a few days ago I came across these beauties on Etsy...

The cutest assortment of vintage milk and juice caps. I love the colors, the textures, the type. Love it all!


I love them so much I might frame some of them and hang them somewhere, which means I will just have to get some more to use on my pages.

I got 40 different ones for $5. Can't beat that!

Get them here.

Peace out.

I'm actually scrapping????

Why, yes, I am. No enabling today. Can you believe it?

This is my entry for one of the amazing mini books of the circle journal I'm part of.

Since this whole thing was Aleida's idea I just had to include the famous Aleida heart punch from Martha :)

Lots of Martha paper and little bits and pieces that I really like. It's all about faves so I used one of the pics of Nati and I that I love the most.


It's still a work in progress, but I'm almost done with it.

Just trying to figure out a title and the type I want to use.




ETA:
Finished product:



I even have what looks like another LO on my desk, just waiting to happen...



Feels like a cosmic kick in the shin though, since I'm gonna have to leave all my beloved scrap supplies behind for who knows how long...

Oh, well. Off to enjoy them for a little longer.

Have a super duper weekend!!

Yes, yes. I know I am the worst enabler in the world.

But, how can I just keep all these amazing finds to my self??? How???

Again, this goodness comes via Etsy.


These custom stamps are too cute to resist, plus I had to add another typewriter to my growing collection. I had to.

I got mine with the page left blank, but you can also get it with a message on it.

Find them here.



And...


Hello!?!?! Could this be any cooler? I think not. I plan to use this one kinda like a calling card.

Find it here.

Toodles.

It's a sickness, I tell ya...

I just cannot pass up a cool stamp. Can't. Won't.

These are my latest finds.


Two more typewriters for my growing collection.

Two chairs which I love.

Airplane icon, too cool for school.

And, the coolest one is the London skyline. I absolutely love the Ferris wheel.

Now, these...



Sigh...

Get them here.

My sweet baby girl paying homage to Dr. Seuss...


She loves the camera, and the camera LOVES her!






Onto great books...

And even more stamp finds!

If there is one thing I cannot resist is a new stamp.

I have a pretty big collection, and lately I have been finding such cool ones, that it keeps growing and growing.

Lately I've been into chair and furniture images and look at this...



The bikes were just to pretty to pass up. I am getting quite a few bicycle images and I love them all.


These are from B Line Designs.

Toodles.

Get it together.

Since the organization/purge kick is not over yet, here is another tip to make your life easier and help you use your supplies.

This is how I know which ink pad colors I have.

Under the color dot, I have written the color name and I put an asterisk next to the ones that have re inkers.





It lets me see the real color of the ink once stamped, and I can place the index next to whatever project or paper I am using to find the perfect color.

I grouped ink types together:
- pigment/dye
- chalk
- distress
- staz on

It saves me time and I can keep track of all the ink colors in my stash.

My ink pads are stored in these great wall/desktop storage units.





They can be found on Etsy here or here.


Hope these help you get your stash in order.

Toodles!

Just in case you were wondering if there was such a thing.

Since I am counting the seconds till the Twilight blu-ray is released, I figured I'd entertain myself with this...


I found a great place to makeover your very own version of Edward Cullen.

I know Aimee will enjoy this one as much as I did ;)

Have fun!!

Etsy love.

Just a quick and short one to share another find from Etsy.


Aren't these resin cabochons the cutest, prettiest things ever???


And some delish baker's twine in: red, navy, green and brown.



I had been looking all over for these and as usual Etsy delivered.

Have a wonderful day!
