Inspired By: Digital Paper Packs

Inspiration for me can come from anywhere at any time. But lately I seem to be filling my virtual folders with these digital paper packs. With such a great mix of color, pattern, and textures it's not easy to choose a favorite. And that's okay, really because at these price points you can say yes to just more than one! Yay!! All you need to add is paper and ink to the printer of your choice to start adding pops of stylish color to anything that you can decorate paper with . Such as candle holders, frames, inspiration boards, the inside of cabinets, canisters, file folders, and even furniture. Oh, and may I suggest Modge Podge as a great adhesive tool. It's a great adhesive and sealer in one that will make any paper application to just about any surface virtually effortless. Happy printing :)

Wednesday Wishes

Today... i have failed in many ways. So today I am wishing for some restored hope and faith in myself.

Wednesday Wishes

At 60 miles per hour print

For this weeks Wednesday wishes post I am wishing that all my fellow bloggers are squeezing the most outta the long days of your summer! As I pack to head out to Spring Green Wisconsin for a long weekend of camping and canoeing, it will surely be a most deserved time off from work and a nice chance to escape the city landscape. The title of this print feels exactly like the pace I've been charging at all summer long to say the least. Nothing that a cozy camp fire, big open fields, and afternoon swims in the river won't be able to remedy!

The return of Domino!

Hello and what a great morning it is!! The editors of Bride's.com have found a new home for Domino magazine and are resurrecting the magazines content online over here. Which just totally puts a skip in my step this Wednesday morning. I still think there's nothing like the real deal of experiencing a magazine in print, but since sadly this magazine is no longer in print, I will happily browse through the digital content as if it were ;) How great would it be to partner up with other people who still have some of these magazines to borrow them for a few weeks! I have a few of them and would love to start a trade/borrow of sorts! If anyone would be up for this, let's talk! Email me at: evphotogal(at)me.com

P.S. I once found a collection of 12 Domino magazines going for $200 on craigslist....this, I thought, was seriously for the crazy's!

Forgive me...

As I work on getting life back to order. It's funny how reconfiguring your things and furniture to fit into a new space requires one to rethink more than just that :) I've been working steadily on getting my craft room/space up and running. Stay tuned for the before and afters of my craft closet transformation!!
