My Scrappy Area

My scrappy inventory has been slowly increasing.  I totally lack discipline in this area, not mentioning some "evil" friends keep luring me to buy more by giving me coupons.  Paper, ribbons, stickers, glue...are all over the place.  After the holidays, I've finally got a chance to organize these eye-candy materials.  With my dear handyman dad's great help...

I have two lovely shelves for my small items and a wow-la ribbon holder which is made from a lazy Susan.  I love ribbons, but it's hard to organize them.  This lazy Susan had been sitting in the basement for a long time.  We bought it long time ago at IKEA and "abandoned" it when the living room was re-organized.  Now it's in good use, and I'm so proud of it as I AM the DESIGNER of it.  LOL.

Well, here is my scrappy area and my getaway from Peanut's noise...but still with Abby's baby talk.

Over the weekend, I went to Michaels to dig some goodies with "evil" JZ's coupon.  I bought some nice patterned papers and a bunch of ribbons.  Oh, yeah, my second order with Two Peas has just cleared custom yesterday at a Canadian airport.  Let's see when it will get to my door.  I purchased some yummy papers again.  My dad and hubby have been so supportive in my new addictive...great dad and great hubby.

It's my first time to use stamp on the border and create "layered" shabby frame for the picture.  It's always fun to try out new things, well, at least new for me.

Oh, the last thing I want to share is the great find at Wal-mart today.

Only 2 bucks.  Can you believe it?  It's a decorated bird house, and it's so cute!
