Jinger Adams Gypsy Queen Clipboard

Hi everyone!  I wanted to share some good news with you, I am now on Jinger Adams design team.  I am so super excited to share a fun project with you using product from Jinger Adams collection.  Today I will be working with the Gypsy Queen collection.  Le me just say how amazingly gorgeous it is.  You must pick it up!

I love how all the paper coordinates with one another and their is even matching embellishments to go along with it.  It totally takes all the guess work out of trying to match papers and ribbons.

For today's project, I decided to make a fun altered clipboard.  I just picked up a plain blank wood clipboard and some black binder clips from an office supply store and started creating. 

 Products Used:

• Wooden Clipboard
• Blank Binder Clips
• Paper- Jinger Adams (Gypsy Queen)
• Ribbon- Jinger Adams (Gypsy Queen)
• Mod Podge- I applied about 4 coats on top letting each one dry for about 45 mins before adding another layer. 

If you have any questions feel free to send me an email: inkingitupcrazy@gmail.com

See you all next time!  
Hugs, Kassidy

Mini Notebooks

  I am so addicted to making these mini notebooks.  I alter them of coarse.  I have also seen tutorials on how to make them from scratch (search youtube for some great ones).  It is just easiest for me to pick them up at the dollar store and cover them with paper and cute embellishments.  These are so fun and easy to make.  It is a great way to use up those paper scraps and embellishments that you can't fit into your regular scrapbooking.  I love to top these notebooks off with a little twine tied onto the pen.  

  Hope you all enjoyed my project today.  See you all later :)

Supplies Used:

• Mini Notebook and Pen Set (dollar store)


• Paper Scraps


• White Gel Pen


• Stamps- Hero Arts, My Creative Time


• Bling


• Chipboard Flowers

Vinyl is not just for your front door

    Hi everyone! I hope you are all having a fantastic day.  Today I am just hanging out watching the Olympics.  Go USA!!!  Woot Woot.
    I finally got my computer to read my memory card this week.  I am excited to share this fun and quick project with you.
    I wanted to dress up a few of our inside doors. I have seen people have "Pantry" and "Laundry" on their doors and it looks darling.
I found a super cute PANTRY vinyl decal in the EAD Designs shop but I couldn't find any LAUNDRY vinyl decals.  Normally I would be bummed but I knew that EAD Designs offers custom orders.  I simply typed them up a little email and said what I wanted and the BAM it was in my mailbox a few days later.  Talk about speedy service!

Products used: 

•  PANTRY SIGN

See you all next week :)
