Where Do You Look For Inspiration?

A lot of people are writing about Pinterest and I admit that it is fun to look at but...
But whenever I'm looking for inspiration, I check out YouTube..
I can honestly say that I am addicted to the website...


After I had crocheted a bunch of granny squares, I didn't really know how to put them together, so I searched YouTube and found this video...



When I look for a scrapbooking project, I go to You Tube...this is such a cute mini album..



I never tired of looking at organizing videos either..check out this scrapbook room....


(This gal is a hoot!)

I never tire of looking at scrapbook room and all the product they have and how they store it..



You won't believe how many Cricut cartridges this person has...it's insane and I love it...




And because it's July...I must show you my favorite Christmas song from Glee..

Let me know if you love YouTube as much as I do..

My Altered Coupon Binder

In January, when I quit my job, it was important that we spend as little money as possible not to mention that we spend our money wisely...

One of the ways we changed our spending habits was by using coupons...and really make sure we used them for products that we would normally buy...

And when anybody uses coupons, it's important to figure out how to organize those coupons...


This is my coupon binder...nothing special and I think I even got it at Goodwill...
its full of coupons and definitely nothing special to look at...
I decided it was time to get my scrapbook papers and embellishments out and get it altered.


I made this rose from some lace that I got at Goodwill, that I showed you here.


and added a flower made from tissue paper and a chipboard embellishment...

added more lace to the sentiment, this really helped to bring this into the shabby chic look that I love so much...


This picture doesn't do this justice, it's very pretty...

 this is the backside...

loving the glitter on this sentiment...
